Does My Voice Matter?: A Journey of Self-Discovery, Authenticity, and Empowerment
by Cynthia JamesWe live in a critical and oftentimes violent world. People are afraid to talk about what they feel, think, or believe. They withhold energy for fear of being ridiculed, punished, or excluded. They hide their deepest dreams and desires away and cover them up with doubt, insecurity, old experiences, and fears. Cynthia James know this—because that was her experience. Covering seven decades of living, traveling, and growing, Does My Voice Matter? follows James&’s journey of self-discovery and authenticity as she gradually recognizes that she has a voice—and learns how to use it.

Written for anyone who wants to discover the power within that makes them special, Does My Voice Matter? has a vital message: Uniqueness is your own glorious imprint on this planet, and it is calling you to come out. It doesn&’t matter if your awakening is large or small, it doesn&’t matter what your age, race, religion, or history is—anyone can begin right where they are, right now.

Does This Clutter Make My Butt Look Fat?
by Peter WalshIn much the same way that a cluttered home can stop you from living your best life, it can also sabotage your best efforts at controlling your weight. Most people who diet don't just go on one diet and succeed; they go on three or five or ten.
