Hidden Tunnel Networks explores the fascinating world of subterranean passageways created by civilizations throughout history. These hidden realms, built for purposes ranging from sacred rituals to military strategies, offer unique insights into human ingenuity and societal needs.

    YOU'RE NOT GOOD ENOUGH! 
    Those people to whom you compare yourself are every bit as superior as you believe them to be. They belong there. They know more than you. Your achievements don't count. And you're just not that clever. 
    Why bother? Give up. Go home...before you get found out. 
    Sound familiar? 
    This is how you speak to yourself if you think you're going to be found out and thrown out of your workplace. 
    This is how you speak to yourself when you think you're a phoney...but all of the evidence says otherwise. 
    This is how you speak to yourself when you're suffering from the Imposter Phenomenon. 
    My own thoughts of the Imposter Phenomenon almost made me quit before I got started. I almost gave up on my career before there ever was one. I almost gave up on myself. 
    In You Are (Not) a Fraud, I invite you to come with me as I share some of the hidden data behind the Imposter Phenomenon. Come with me as I tell you the stories that can help you understand that it's NOT the Imposter 'Syndrome'! 
    We can all understand what true imposters are. 
    We can all understand how to be mindful of useless comparisons we make between ourselves and other people. 
    We can all understand how the Imposter Phenomenon might always be there...but it should never stop you doing exactly what you want to do. 
    This is not an imposter syndrome book. It's the book that will help you to ditch the term 'imposter syndrome' forever...

    Mike Perry’s extraordinary and thoughtful account of meeting the people of his small hometown by joining the fire and rescue team was a breakout hit that “swells with unadorned heroism” (USA Today) 
    Welcome to New Auburn, Wisconsin (population: 485) where the local vigilante is a farmer’s wife armed with a pistol and a Bible, the most senior member of the volunteer fire department is a cross-eyed butcher with one kidney and two ex-wives (both of whom work at the only gas station in town), and the back roads are haunted by the ghosts of children and farmers. Michael Perry loves this place. He grew up here, and now-after a decade away-he has returned. 
    Unable to polka or repair his own pickup, his farm-boy hands gone soft after years of writing, Mike figures the best way to regain his credibility is to join the volunteer fire department. Against a backdrop of fires and tangled wrecks, bar fights and smelt feeds, he tells a frequently comic tale leavened with moments of heartbreaking delicacy and searing tragedy.  
    Tracing his calls on a map in the little firehouse, he sees “a dense, benevolent web, spun one frantic zigzag at a time” from which the story of a tiny town emerges.

    How has Florida's land changed across five centuries? What has stayed the same, and what remains only in memory? In Tracing Florida Journeys, Leslie Poole delves into the stories of well-known explorers and travelers who came to the peninsula and wrote about their experiences, looking at their words and the paths they took from the perspective of today. 
     
     
     
    In this book, John Muir and Harriet Beecher Stowe write about their visits to Florida, reflecting their expectations of a place that was touted to be "paradise." John James Audubon finds riches of bird life in the Keys. Zora Neale Hurston travels to turpentine camps and sawmills documenting the stories and music of workers and residents. Jonathan Dickinson and Stephen Crane recount shipwrecks along a sparsely populated coastline. 
     
     
     
    Using journals and articles by these and other authors that date back to the early European exploration of the region, Poole retraces their steps. The land they write about is often hard to imagine in today's Florida, a top destination for tourists filled with almost twenty-two million residents. These stories show the evolving history of the state and the richness of its natural resources. Poole's comparisons also point to the people who have been displaced and the ecosystems that have been dramatically altered by exploration and development.

    What if I were to tell you the conventional career intelligence publicly available surrounding careers in construction has mostly held you back? 
    This is the case for a few reasons. First, it’s incomplete and missing context. Second, it doesn’t provide a holistic approach to career development. And third, it’s missing all the internal work that’s first required to achieve career success, because we live from the inside out. 
    You could spend years accruing bits and pieces of career intelligence for the construction industry, and that’s what it has taken me. I will fast-track that for you, by guiding, inspiring, and directing you to achieve more recognition, higher compensation and faster career progression. 
    Are you ready to start construction on the greatest project you'll ever work on?
