    In this timely and necessary book, New York Times opinion writer Jessica Grose dismantles two hundred years of unrealistic parenting expectations and empowers today’s mothers to make choices that actually serve themselves, their children, and their communities 
    Close your eyes and picture the perfect mother. She is usually blonde and thin. Her roots are never showing and she installed that gleaming kitchen backsplash herself (watch her TikTok for DIY tips). She seamlessly melds work, wellness and home; and during the depths of the pandemic, she also ran remote school and woke up at 5 a.m. to meditate. 
    You may read this and think it’s bananas; you have probably internalized much of it. 
    Journalist Jessica Grose sure had. After she failed to meet every one of her own expectations for her first pregnancy, she devoted her career to revealing how morally bankrupt so many of these ideas and pressures are. Now, in Screaming on the Inside, Grose weaves together her personal journey with scientific, historical, and contemporary reporting to be the voice for American parents she wishes she’d had a decade ago. 
    The truth is that parenting cannot follow a recipe; there’s no foolproof set of rules that will result in a perfectly adjusted child. Every parent has different values, and we will have different ideas about how to pass those values along to our children. What successful parenting has in common, regardless of culture or community, is close observation of the kind of unique humans our children are. In thoughtful and revelatory chapters about pregnancy, identity, work, social media, and the crisis of the Covid-19 pandemic, Grose explains how we got to this moment, why the current state of expectations on mothers is wholly unsustainable, and how we can move towards something better.

    Venezuela’s economic history is a tale of immense wealth and devastating collapse, shaped by its vast oil reserves and the policies that governed them. Once one of the richest countries in Latin America, Venezuela’s rise was fueled by oil, an abundant resource that transformed the nation’s fortunes. However, overreliance on this single commodity, combined with political instability and economic mismanagement, led to one of the most severe financial crises in modern history. Understanding Venezuela’s economic journey requires a closer look at how it soared to prosperity, the warning signs that were ignored, and the policies that ultimately triggered its downfall.  
    The discovery of oil in the early 20th century set Venezuela on a path of rapid economic growth. As global demand for oil skyrocketed, so did Venezuela’s revenues, allowing the country to modernize its infrastructure, expand public services, and improve living standards. By the mid-20th century, Venezuela was among the most prosperous nations in Latin America, boasting a strong middle class and a high standard of living. The government used oil wealth to fund social programs, subsidize goods, and invest in national development, creating an illusion of economic stability. Yet, beneath the surface, a dangerous dependence on oil was forming, leaving the economy vulnerable to external shocks.  
    Despite periods of prosperity, warning signs of economic instability were evident long before the country entered crisis. As oil prices fluctuated, so did Venezuela’s financial health. Instead of diversifying the economy, successive governments doubled down on oil dependency, making the country highly susceptible to global market shifts.

    Get the best from accelerating social change with the new audiobook from the bestselling author of 2030 and “acclaimed thought leader” (Kirkus), Mauro Guillén. Adam Grant praises how the book "invites us to rethink our careers, our families, and our future plans.” Find out why business leaders and bestselling authors around the world are calling it "sharply relevant and necessary" (William P. Lauder), "insightful and deeply researched" (Richard Florida), and "a must read" (Mohammed A. El-Erian). In today’s world, the acceleration of megatrends – increasing longevity and the explosion of technology among many others – are transforming life as we now know it.In The Perennials, bestselling author of 2030 Mauro Guillén unpacks a sweeping societal shift triggered by demographic and technological transformation. Guillén argues that outmoded terms like Boomers, Gen X, Millennials, and Gen Z have long been used to pigeonhole us into rigid categories and life stages, artificially preventing people from reaching their full potential. A new postgenerational workforce known as “perennials” – individuals who are not pitted against each other either by their age or experience – makes it possible to liberate scores of people from the constraints of the sequential model of life and level the playing field so that everyone has a chance at living a rewarding life. Guillén unveils how this generational revolution will impact young people just entering the workforce as well as those who are living and working longer. This multigenerational revolution is already happening and Mauro Guillén identifies the specific cultural, organizational and policy changes that need to be made in order to switch to a new template and usher in a new era of innovation powered by the perennials.A Macmillan Audio production from St. Martin’s Press.
