Inspired Life Beautiful Death -...

Tom Nehmy

What if the pain of grief could truly be healed? What if love never dies?
For years, clinical psychologist Dr. Tom Nehmy struggled to help his grieving clients. Traditional therapy could offer support—but not the profound healing they truly needed. That changed when he discovered Induced After-Death Communication (IADC) Therapy, a groundbreaking technique that not only alleviates deep sadness but also facilitates extraordinary reconnections with the deceased.
In Inspired Life, Beautiful Death, Dr. Nehmy embarks on a deeply personal and scientific journey—one that bridges psychology, grief therapy, and the spiritual dimensions of life after death. Through vivid case studies and cutting-edge research, he reveals how IADC Therapy is transforming lives. Yet, his most powerful insights come from his own experiences—revelations that challenge everything we assume about death, consciousness, and the nature of existence.
This book is not just about grief— it’s about how to live. Drawing from the wisdom of those who have glimpsed the afterlife and reflecting on his own vulnerability, Dr. Nehmy explores what truly matters, offering practical guidance on cultivating love, spiritual awareness, and finding meaning in our greatest struggles. All the while he assures us our loved ones never truly leave us, we can heal from loss in ways once thought impossible, and our deepest fear—the fear of death—is the greatest illusion of all.
Whether you are navigating your own loss, seeking deeper meaning, or simply curious about what lies beyond, this book will challenge your beliefs, move your heart, and leave you with an unshakeable sense of hope.

Lean Production Scale-up

Ilkka Taponen

This audiobook is an altered version of the Master’s thesis Lean Production Scale-up. How a startup can scale the manufacturing of physical product innovation by Ilkka Taponen. Approximately half of the original thesis has been removed to suit the audiobook format. The audiobook edit has been designed for an audience familiar with startups and business, meaning that large portions of the basics have been removed from the Theory chapter.Today the market entry for new ideas and entrepreneurs is easier than ever as the digital age is reshaping how business is done. Through digitalization, the business environment has become highly open and widely connected. The combinations of digital technologies like edge computing and artificial intelligence, AI, enable new business model opportunities. In this fast-changing environment, the most important thing is to learn as fast as possible what to do next and what is worth doing at all. Multiple non-fiction books like The Four Steps to the Epiphany by Steve Blank and Lean Startup by Eric Ries study the modern internet-era startup business environment.Still, one aspect has not been included in the broader public discussion. The tools presented in Lean Startup concentrate on finding the market fit as efficiently as possible but assume that the same level of uncertainties does not exist in the company's internal processes. “We wanted flying cars, instead we got 140 characters” is a famous quote by startup investor Peter Thiel. Behind the quote is the notion that there is something different and more challenging about developing physical technologies compared to online services. Manufacturing, indeed, is an underrated problem. It is much harder to take advanced technology and bring it to volume manufacturing than to design it in the first place.
