    This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
    What if the people meant to nurture your soul were the very ones who kept wounding it? 
    In Rising Over the Waves: Surviving Among Emotionally Immature Parents, discover the raw, unfiltered truth of what it's like to grow up in a household where emotional chaos, unpredictability, and unmet needs are masked by denial, silence, or well-meaning ignorance. This is not just a book — it’s a lifeline for those who have long felt invisible, unheard, or emotionally orphaned. 
    With deep compassion and piercing insight, this transformative guide unpacks the hidden legacy of emotionally immature parenting — the subtle manipulations, the dismissive tones, the burdens placed on shoulders too young to carry them — and shows you how to reclaim your voice, your boundaries, and your life. 
    Whether you’re still in the storm or long escaped from its eye, this book offers the clarity you’ve craved and the strength you deserve. Through powerful stories, psychological wisdom, and healing strategies, Rising Over the Waves helps you stop treading water and finally rise, not despite your past, but powerfully because of it. 
    You are not too sensitive. You are not overreacting. You are rising.

    How diversity initiatives harm employees of color by turning them into workplace commodities. 
      
    Diversity programs are under attack. Should those interested in racial justice fight to keep them, or might there be another way forward? Who Pays for Diversity? reveals the costs that employees of color pay under current programs by having their racial identities commodified to benefit white people and institutions. Oneya Fennell Okuwobi proposes fresh and thoughtful ways to reorient these initiatives, move beyond tokenism, and authentically center marginalized employees. 
      
    Drawing on accounts of employees from across the workplace spectrum, from corporations to churches to universities, Who Pays for Diversity? details how the optics of diversity programs undermine employees' competence while diminishing their well-being and workplace productivity. Okuwobi argues that diversity programs have been a costly detour on the path to racial justice, and getting back on track requires solutions that provide equity, dignity, and agency to all employees, instead of defending the status quo.  
      
    "Oneya Fennell Okuwobi brilliantly uncovers the hidden costs of diversity initiatives, challenging the superficiality of such programs and the burdens they place on people of color within so-called 'diverse' environments with a powerful, evidence-backed critique. This book is an essential read for anyone committed to creating genuine racial equity in workplaces and institutions."—Mary Murphy, Herman B. Wells Endowed Professor, Indiana University

    "Can human problems be solved? - 27 September 1980 
    • Why have human beings throughout the world not been able to resolve human, 
    daily problems of life? What are the things that prevent the solution of these 
    problems completely? 
    • When there is attention there is no centre from which I attend. 
    • A poor man wants to be rich and a rich man wants to be richer. It is a movement 
    of becoming, becoming, both outwardly and inwardly. Though it brings a great deal of pain and sometimes pleasure, this sense of becoming, fulfilling, achieving psychologically has made my life into all that it is. 
    • Is love something that is common to all of us? 
    • From the particular move to the general, from the general move away still 
    deeper, and there perhaps is this purity of that thing called compassion, love and intelligence. But that means giving your mind and heart to this. Your whole being must be involved in this."
