    Drunk on Confidence -...

    “Being ‘Drunk on Confidence’ is not some throw-away phrase for an inspirational Insta caption, it’s a lifestyle, a complete shift in perspective that will help you feel empowered and confident every day.” 
     
    Radio and TV personality, Heidi Anderson was always the girl who wore a cardigan in summer to cover her arms, and board shorts to the beach on the rare occasion she dared to go. She spent years hating herself; silencing her body demons through sex, booze and boys. 
     
    Heidi knows what it’s like to feel alone, to deal with debilitating anxiety daily and to constantly try to please people; pretending to be okay on the outside, while suffering crushing insecurities on the inside. 
     
    After breaking down on live radio to 300 thousand listeners and making the nerve-racking confession, 
     
    “I wish I could sit here and tell you that I love myself because that’s what people expect me to say, but I can’t. I absolutely hate my body” 
     
    She experienced a life-changing moment. 
     
    Her gut-wrenching admission forced her to embrace her vulnerabilities, challenge her old beliefs and learn how to say a big fat ‘’Fuck You” to unrealistic beauty standards, and a big ‘’Up Yours’’ to all diets and society’s expectations. 
     
    Heidi is unapologetically authentic, her memoir is filled with honesty, humour and home-truths. She will show you how she dealt with her inner mean girls that told her she wasn’t skinny enough, good enough or simply that other people mattered more than she did. She will inspire you to STOP worrying what other people think and take your power back! 
     
    ‘Heidi Anderson is a straight up legend; she just gets it! She works hard, she’s an ideas machine and is a content queen. Heidi is the ultimate hype girl, I know this cause she’s been mine since 2013.’ TANYA HENNESSY, Comedian, TV & Radio Personality

    The battle between Marvelous Marvin Hagler and Thomas Hearns is remembered as one of the greatest fights of all time. But in the months before the two finally collided on April 15, 1985, there was a feeling in the air that boxing was in trouble. 
     
     
     
    With Hagler–Hearns looking like boxing's last hurrah, promoter Bob Arum embarked on one the most audacious publicity campaigns in history, hyping the bout until the entire country was captivated. Could Arum possibly get a memorable fight out of these two moody, unpredictable warriors? 
     
     
     
    The Hagler–Hearns fight is now part of history, but The War explores the factors behind the event, and how it helped establish what many feel was boxing's greatest era. No book, not even George Kimball's classic, Four Kings, has focused solely on this legendary fight involving two of those "Four Kings" that boxing fans have revered for their skills and willingness to take on challenges that many fighters do not take in today's boxing landscape. 
     
     
     
    With additional commentary from many who were there, Stradley shows the unlikely path taken by two fighters searching for greatness. When the fight was over, however, each learned that fame inflicted its own kind of damage.
