My name is Elise Lovelace and I am a licensed therapist and professional counselor in Florida and California. I invite you to explore with me the idea of drinking responsibly. Step into a world where enjoying life and responsible choices intersect. This isn't about saying 'no' to fun; it's about saying 'yes' to a balanced, mindful approach to drinking. Through insightful strategies and practical tips, we'll explore how to embrace a vibrant social life without sacrificing well-being. This isn't about abstinence; it's about finding the sweet spot where drinking and responsibility meet to create a reasonable drinking practice. Working with individuals who have struggled with substance use has been a substantial portion of my professional practice. It is my sincerest hope that what I have learned from working in collaboration with many courageous individuals to overcome alcohol misuse be imparted to you as a more balanced approach to drinking.  
Cheers to Balance!

Whether you have just been appointed captain of your sports team, the head of an organising committee or director of a work division, the mantle of leadership can feel heavy. Inevitably, this new position will bring responsibilities you've never experienced before. Fortunately, there are many brilliant books written about leadership. Less fortunately, you are unlikely to find the time with all your new responsibilities to read them all, or indeed, any of them. So, Tony Harris has brought over three decades of his experience to create a book of 101 observations each in a mere 101 words, designed to help, remind and encourage anybody who suddenly finds themselves in charge. Many have been there before you and doubted their own suitability but they made it and, with a little sound advice, so will you.

Lead Together - Stop Squirrelling Away Power and Build a Better Team - cover

Lead Together - Stop...

Leaders today want to stop feeling overwhelmed and alone. They want to build engaged, diverse, resilient, and joyful teams that achieve greater things together. They want a better way to lead. 
 
 
  
Lead Together is a fictional story, grounded in psychology and laden with practical tools, that offers leaders a power-with rather than power-over paradigm. It explores how leaders can develop power jointly rather than use it as a top-down means of control in the form of an engaging, squirrelly narrative. 
 
 
  
Psychology researcher and leadership educator Tania Luna offers the tale of Sam Squirrel, branch manager of Nuts for You, Inc., whose company faces an impending forest recession. Sam employs the leadership tactics his boss, Jack Walnuts, taught him ("know the way and make them go your way") but achieves only distrust, disengagement, poor performance, and high turnover. During Sam's last-ditch effort to meet his quotas, he finds a hidden, thriving community that shows him a radical new way to lead. But will it be enough to save Nuts for You and help Sam realize his dream of becoming Chief Nut Officer?

Unlike people with carefree previous lives, I packed away my past. There are some memories labeled 'Look at', and others 'Leave well alone' . . . 
 
 
 
Emily Smith was held in a prison of fear for ten years. When she was four, her father left and a new man was brought into her life. He loved her, he kept telling her so, but the emotional and physical abuse she suffered at his hands were a daily nightmare. Until one day, after he crept into her bedroom, her life became unbearable. 
 
 
 
Emily found she was different in another way as her autism became more noticeable and punishments for her 'abnormal' behavior more severe. Astonishingly, she managed to escape her home of hell, where she was abused right in front of her mother. Emily determinedly gained a university place and emerged triumphant with a new life and family in Ireland, desperate to treat her daughter, so similar to her, to a different life. 
 
 
 
Heartbreakingly true, Silent Child is a testament to Emily's strength as she sheds light on rampant abuse still happening today. Powerful and shocking, sharing her story means she finally has a voice to say: enough. 
 
 
 
Contains mature themes.
