The AOC Way: The Secrets of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's Success (Women in Power)
by Caroline FredricksonUnderstanding and applying the wisdom of Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez! In an incredibly short time, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has galvanized the country on issues of national importance. This young member of Congress has motivated Democrats to confront climate change and income inequality and is upending conventional wisdom about how young women, especially women of color, are supposed to behave. Her background, including a family that fell out of the middle class due to health care challenges, has driven her to champion those on the margins, such as low-wage workers, immigrants, people of color, and younger people who face a future of climate disruption and instability. This book takes life lessons from the rising star known as AOC and offers readers a chance to apply them to their own lives. In five chapters, The AOC Way weaves substantive issues and AOC&’s experiences to understand how she so quickly came to dominate media coverage in America but also to drive real change in what seems like a lightening flash. AOC has demonstrated some key values and commitments on her way to success, such as believing in yourself and not letting haters take you off course; working hard and being prepared to prove your talents; bringing your experiences to your work by not forgetting how you got where you are; challenging the status quo; and staying true to your friends and allies.
The Aaron/Q'uo Dialogues
by Barbara Brodsky Carla L. RueckertCarla Rueckert's previous writings in Secrets of the UFO (1976) and The Law of One series (1982) inspired many readers to submit transcripts of their own channeling material. One of those readers was the Buddhist teacher Barbara Brodsky, in whom Rueckert recognized a kindred spirit. Rueckert invited Brodsky to co-channel a conversation between their spirits, Aaron and Q'uo, and the result is this timely and compelling book. Developed from the transcripts of nine weekends of joint channeling, The Aaron-Q'uo Dialogues offers teachings from a "positive channeling" or "positive polarity" perspective. This perspective emphasizes, as Rueckert says, "living, thinking, and acting in service to others," and avoiding the "negative polarity" of focusing exclusively on service to self. The Aaron-Q'uo Dialogues shows how fear--fear of being too human, fear of death and dying, fear of failing to change with the times--holds us back, limiting our full potential and enjoyment of life. Addressing questions from a wide range of spiritual seekers who attended these sessions, Aaron and Q'uo answer a host of fundamental questions for living with more awareness and compassion. With warmth and humor, these conversations offer the spiritual seeker a valuable template for living a life of selflessness and spiritual peace.From the Trade Paperback edition.
