  She was never broken—just buried under everyone else’s version of who she should be. 
  See Through is a bold, emotionally honest memoir about what it really takes to heal—not just privately, but publicly. Stephanie M. Hutchins, PhD, spent decades performing strength for the world while silently drowning in the aftermath of trauma, misdiagnosis, and chronic invisibility. This book is the result of her decision to stop hiding. 
  In these pages, Stephanie weaves searing personal stories with powerful insights about self-worth, shame, identity, and the cost of radical transparency. She explores:Why “performing okay” can be a survival strategy—and how to let it goHow to set boundaries that honor your nervous system, not your need to be likedHow to navigate emotional flashbacks, over-functioning, and high-functioning traumaThe complex beauty of living a life aligned with your truth—even when it’s messy 
  See Through doesn’t offer neat formulas or cliché advice. Instead, it offers something more radical: permission to stop performing, speak the truth, and reclaim your voice—without apology. 
  If you’ve ever felt like you had to hide your pain to be loved or earn your worth to feel safe, this book is for you.

  'I'm okay!' The bestselling author of The Anti-Cool Girl returns with a devastating, heartbreaking, brilliant, brave and laugh-out-loud funny memoir of telling lies and being on the brink... 
    
  'I had made it! All my dreams had come true. I had an operating fridge, I was doing brilliantly, and I had written the memoir to prove it. I even had online haters. I had conquered life at 30 and nothing was ever going to go wrong again!' It was all going so well for Rosie Waterland. Until it wasn't. Until, shockingly, something awful happened and Rosie went into agonising free fall. Until late one evening she found herself in a hospital emergency bed, trembling and hooked to a drip. Over the course of that long, painful night, she kept thinking about how ironic it was, that right in the middle of writing a book about lies, she'd ended up telling the most significant lie of all.A raw, beautiful, sad, shocking - and very, very funny - memoir of all the lies we tell others and the lies we tell ourselves. 
  Praise for The Anti-Cool Girl: 
  'Hilarious, wise, gutsy, clear-eyed, devastating and uplifting. It's a marvel.' Richard Glover 
  'Waterland's writing is ... individual, wounded, brilliant and hilarious' Sydney Morning Herald  
  'If Augusten Burroughs and Lena Dunham abandoned their child in an Australian housing estate, she'd write this heartbreaking, hilarious book.' Dominic Knight, The Chaser 
  The Anti-Cool Girl was shortlisted for the 2016 Indie Book Awards and for the 2016 ABIA Awards for Biography of the Year, and in addition was the Winner of the 2016 ABIA Awards People's Choice for the Matt Richell Award for New Writer of the Year

  Fear and Other Uninvited Guests...

  Bestselling author Harriet Lerner is at her provocative best in this examination of fear as the key motivating force in our lives. 
   Often unrecognised, fear and shame drive our choices and attitudes in ways that most of us never figure out. As Lerner explains, fear is not an amorphous unknown to be transcended or overcome but an emotion to be recognized, explored, decoded and embraced. Once we befriend fear, it can actually help us achieve calm, clarity and fundamental peace. 
   Lerner teaches us the best ways to deal with fear: to expect, allow, and accept its presence in our lives, to mindfully observe and attend to how it feels in our bodies and, ultimately to own it. We can become experts on our personal triggers of anxiety, learning when fear signals real danger and when it's best to plough through it because it comes with the territory of making necessary changes. The very worst thing we can do in the face of fear is to run from it or try to avoid it. Fear is not something to be conquered or eliminated––or even tackled, for that matter. Instead, we need to pay close attention to the message it is trying to convey. 
   Using her wonderfully rich and inviting therapeutic voice along with personal memories and examples drawn from her practice, Lerner gives fear its due. We needn't let anxiety, fear, and shame silence our authentic voice, close our hearts to the different voices of others, or stop us from acting with dignity, integrity and brio. We need to harness fear and put it in service to our best selves.

  As quickly as his face disappeared, so did his mother and father. 
   
   
   
  Just three days after he was born, Howard Shulman contracted an infection that attacked his face, devouring his nose, lips, lower right eyelid, tear ducts, and palate. Abandoned at the hospital by his parents, he became a ward of New Jersey under the care of a state-employed surgeon who experimentally rebuilt his face. 
   
   
   
  Running from the Mirror is a poignant story of one man's struggle to survive against staggering odds and create a meaningful life for himself. With unapologetic candor, Howard gives an unflinching account of growing up a bullied outcast, with no family to officially call his own. Relying on little more than street smarts and grit, he rises from dishwasher to successful entrepreneur. Along the way, a European actress, a schoolteacher, and a fiery Latina help transform his life. 
   
   
   
  Filled with heart-wrenching suffering as well as soul-lifting joy, Running from the Mirror is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit.
