Download or read book Hear Me Raw written by Daniella Isaacs and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2017-10-17 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When did our obsession with wellness start making us sick? Hear Me Raw is an autobiographical play based on the author's experiences of the online wellness industry. The play opens with the protaganist playing the typical health blogger: "She has constructed, with uncanny accuracy, that suspiciously 'together' person, the constant smile and unsolicited advice perfected."(A Younger Theatre). As the play progresses we see how this young woman's desire for 'clean living' becomes a deepening obsession with restriction and control. It isolates her from others, disconnecting her from family and friends, so that she selfishly does not attend a family shiva because of her food obsessions. Her controlled regimes also significantly affect her mental health. Daniella Isaacs peels back the Instagram filter to reveal the dirty truth behind clean living. Hear Me Raw is an autobiographical account of one woman's journey through the world of contemporary wellness. A blistering piece of theatre about restriction, control and too much turmeric.

Based on Kendall's15 years of professional MLB experience, THROWBACK weaves hilarious first-person anecdotes together with wonderfully illuminating "Oh, that's why they do that!" insights into professional baseball, how it's played, and the "why" behind everything you see happening on and off the field"--
