  Unshattered - Surviving My...

  Emma M Churchman

  What happens when your mother isn't one person, but 123?
  Emma Churchman's extraordinary memoir follows her search for identity as the eldest child of a woman with one of the most extreme cases of multiple personality disorder (now known as dissociative identity disorder) diagnosed in the 1980s. Never knowing which of her mother' s alters would emerge— the playful child, the raging demon, or the suicidal depressive— Emma became the family's anchor in an ocean of psychological chaos, raising her three younger brothers while navigating a mother who had no clear identity.
  This gripping account captures a lineage of violence over generations leading to a family' s struggles with suicide, addiction, and mental illness. Emma reveals a landscape where reality is shattered: changing personalities, a mother locked in a padded room, a homeless father, a child asking for a bodyguard, alters too young to parent, and a daughter picking up the pieces.
  Emma's transformation leads to her role as a trauma chaplain and then a successful entrepreneur and demonstrates how our deepest wounds can become our greatest wisdom. With raw honesty and hard-won insights, she proves we can choose integration over fragmentation, wholeness over mere survival. This beautifully crafted narrative poses the fundamental question: Is identity predetermined by genetics and environment, or can character be born anew through selective choices?
  For readers who loved Educated and The Glass Castle, this revolutionary story shows that healing isn't just survival— it' s transformation in its most powerful form.

  A nation in mourning. A city recovering. A unique moment in history when people came together to rebuild hope. 
  When an unimaginable crisis emerged, politically polarized Oregon found a common mission. Three weeks after the September 11th terrorist attacks, airplanes were empty and the New York economy was tanking. So one thousand Freedom Fliers committed to taking sixty-two flights to NYC and infusing local businesses with revenue to show their unwavering support. 
  Arriving en masse to the grief-filled streets, Oregonians from diverse backgrounds and social statuses came to make a difference in their fellow Americans' lives. But beyond the much-needed economic boost, these unsung heroes discovered themselves providing something even more essential... their open hearts. 
  Sally Ruth Bourrie, freelance writer for the Chicago Tribune and The Boston Globe, witnessed firsthand this remarkable phenomenon sparked by the 2001 Flight for Freedom. 
  In a comprehensive and poignant account, she brings this extraordinary and largely unknown story vividly to life. In Oregon Loves New York, you'll discover: 
  - How everyday people can make a huge difference by being present for others in times of need 
  -Ways a divided community can put aside politics, ideologies, and disagreements to achieve amazing things together 
  - Almost 700 pages of tales of courage and humanity, including 200 full-color photographs, 100 personal interviews, 20 years of research, and archival news pieces now lost to history 
  - Heart-touching examples of the healing power of person-to-person contact and how we as a nation can honor each other 
  - Insight into a little-known event with a huge impact, positive messages of hope, and much, much more!

  This audiobook is divided into units.While it provides different learning patterns and accommodates various needs, this audiobook focuses on helping you improve your ability to understand, speak, and memorise Hungarian. 
  In Unit 1 you will hear Hungarian decoded with each syllable spoken very slowly and clearly with repetition. Immediately before each sentence is spoken, you will hear the translation, so you will always understand what is being said. 
  Unit 2 focuses solely on increasing your listening ability, which will improve your abilities to engage in dialogue with a native Hungarian speaker. This chapter requires you to listen very carefully to nuances in the language. 
  By Unit 3 you will already notice progress in your abilities to speak and understand Hungarian. The spoken translation is followed by two repetitions in Hungarian at a completely natural speed. While you are learning to process naturally spoken Hungarian, Units 3 and 4 will help you memorise new vocabulary and full sentences. 
  In Unit 5 you can test yourself on how much you have learned. If you are having difficulties, we suggest you revisit the listening, speaking, or memorisation section of Units 1, 2 3 or 4, according to what you need more help with.

  Finding Your Third Place -...

  Do you have a Third Place? Your first place is home, your second place is work, and your third place is where you go to socialize. As more of our lives are spent online and in digital spaces, these often overlooked "Third Places" play a crucial role in keeping our communities vibrant. In a timely and thoughtful examination, Richard Kyte, PhD, explores the places that nurture our souls and make up the bedrock of our communities. Third Places can range from a neighborhood tavern, to a community center, to a local bookstore or coffee shop. They are the critical gathering spaces where friendships are formed, relationships are nurtured, and the tapestry of community is woven. Yet, for an ever-growing list of reasons, many people today find themselves without a third place of their own. At a time when our nation is facing an epidemic of loneliness, when communities are suffering from loss of trust, low levels of engagement, despair, and political polarization, what if the answer to many of our problems lies in a simple idea? What if we just need to pay attention to the places where we find ourselves?
