Book excerpt: From Gemma Hartley, the journalist who ignited a national conversation on emotional labor, comes Fed Up, a bold dive into the unpaid, invisible work women have shouldered for too long—and an impassioned vision for creating a better future for us all. Day in, day out, women anticipate and manage the needs of others. In relationships, we initiate the hard conversations. At home, we shoulder the mental load required to keep our households running. At work, we moderate our tone, explaining patiently and speaking softly. In the world, we step gingerly to keep ourselves safe. We do this largely invisible, draining work whether we want to or not—and we never clock out. No wonder women everywhere are overtaxed, exhausted, and simply fed up. In her ultra-viral article “Women Aren’t Nags—We’re Just Fed Up,” shared by millions of readers, Gemma Hartley gave much-needed voice to the frustration and anger experienced by countless women. Now, in Fed Up, Hartley expands outward from the everyday frustrations of performing thankless emotional labor to illuminate how the expectation to do this work in all arenas—private and public—fuels gender inequality, limits our opportunities, steals our time, and adversely affects the quality of our lives. More than just name the problem, though, Hartley teases apart the cultural messaging that has led us here and asks how we can shift the load. Rejecting easy solutions that don’t ultimately move the needle, Hartley offers a nuanced, insightful guide to striking real balance, for true partnership in every aspect of our lives. Reframing emotional labor not as a problem to be overcome, but as a genderless virtue men and women can all learn to channel in our quest to make a better, more egalitarian world, Fed Up is surprising, intelligent, and empathetic essential reading for every woman who has had enough with feeling fed up.

Download or read book Fed Up written by Danielle DiMartino Booth and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2017-02-14 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Federal Reserve insider pulls back the curtain on the secretive institution that controls America’s economy After correctly predicting the housing crash of 2008 and quitting her high-ranking Wall Street job, Danielle DiMartino Booth was surprised to find herself recruited as an analyst at the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas, one of the regional centers of our complicated and widely misunderstood Federal Reserve System. She was shocked to discover just how much tunnel vision, arrogance, liberal dogma, and abuse of power drove the core policies of the Fed. DiMartino Booth found a cabal of unelected academics who made decisions without the slightest understanding of the real world, just a slavish devotion to their theoretical models. Over the next nine years, she and her boss, Richard Fisher, tried to speak up about the dangers of Fed policies such as quantitative easing and deeply depressed interest rates. But as she puts it, “In a world rendered unsafe by banks that were too big to fail, we came to understand that the Fed was simply too big to fight.” Now DiMartino Booth explains what really happened to our economy after the fateful date of December 8, 2008, when the Federal Open Market Committee approved a grand and unprecedented experiment: lowering interest rates to zero and flooding America with easy money. As she feared, millions of individuals, small businesses, and major corporations made rational choices that didn’t line up with the Fed’s “wealth effect” models. The result: eight years and counting of a sluggish “recovery” that barely feels like a recovery at all. While easy money has kept Wall Street and the wealthy afloat and thriving, Main Street isn’t doing so well. Nearly half of men eighteen to thirty-four live with their parents, the highest level since the end of the Great Depression. Incomes are barely increasing for anyone not in the top ten percent of earners. And for those approaching or already in retirement, extremely low interest rates have caused their savings to stagnate. Millions have been left vulnerable and afraid. Perhaps worst of all, when the next financial crisis arrives, the Fed will have no tools left for managing the panic that ensues. And then what? DiMartino Booth pulls no punches in this exposé of the officials who run the Fed and the toxic culture they created. She blends her firsthand experiences with what she’s learned from dozens of high-powered market players, reams of financial data, and Fed documents such as transcripts of FOMC meetings. Whether you’ve been suspicious of the Fed for decades or barely know anything about it, as DiMartino Booth writes, “Every American must understand this extraordinarily powerful institution and how it affects his or her everyday life, and fight back.”

Book excerpt: As we share these writings with you, we want to let you know that many of the same things you may be experiencing, we, along with many others have gone and grown through the process. We share to encourage you, that if God has given you dreams and visions for a brighter future, for reasons unbeknown to you at this time, keep going. When a Woman's Fed Up, There Ain't Nothing You Can Do About It - But God Can! He allows us to grow up in order to go up. He helps us to stand for that that we believe in and not cower down to anyone. He teaches us about love, kindness, grace, mercy, meekness, gentleness and allows us to extend these to others. He even lets us know when it's time to move on, to shake the dust from our feet. He sends us to His people for a reason and a season and when the time comes for us to let go, He lets us know. As you grow through what you go through, as you begin the journey of pursuing your purpose with passion, as you go and grow through the various trials, testing's, and tribulations, you will come to a point where you declare - Enough. It's one thing for you to declare it, but when God says "Enough" He means just that. Then you are free to SOAR and become the person He created you to be. When a Woman's Fed Up, when you are fed up, you will begin to say "No more." No more settling for mediocrity. No more going along with the status quo. No more tolerating less than God's best for your life. You will begin to say yes to embracing all that God has for you.

Download or read book Fed Up written by Catherine Manton and published by Praeger. This book was released on 1999-03-30 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Combining feminist anthropology and theory with culinary history, Catherine Manton examines the place of food in women's history, with a particular emphasis on the life and changing roles of the American woman and her self-image. As Professor Manton makes clear the so-called epidemic of eating disorders at the turn of the twentieth century really is no accident; specific cultural/economic/political conditions make disturbed eating practically inevitable for many American women. At the same time, Manton suggests ways women with eating disturbances can heal themselves through feminist and alternative healing principles. Must reading for students and scholars of American social history, Women's Studies, and ecofeminism.
Download or read book When a Woman s Fed Up written by Latisha Bridges and published by Latisha Bridges. This book was released on 2007-06 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "When A Woman's Fed Up" follows one character's journey through the procedures normally involved in an effort to find, keep, or reconcile the loss of a bond with another person. Through the perspective of Alexandria Campbell, who starts, according to her, with "everything that a woman could ask for except a good man," the work explores the relative complexities of the human spirit. Along the way issues are highlighted that relate to identity, loyalty, belief, and courage in various forms.Born into an "above poverty yet below middle class family," Alexandria is a "preacher's kid" who is forced to recognize that her "main fault is men." She provides an introduction into her life recalling that her mother once told her "If I want things to change in my life then I must change first." At the start we find her facing the possibility of a cold and brutal winter until she meets Glen in a somewhat bizarre way while attending a Valentine's Day gathering at her apartment complex. They seemingly form a bond, but when a diagnosis of pregnancy arises, it leaves Alex questioning her future and avoiding Glen's calls. An accident creates some tense moments, but the other driver shows a degree of concern causing her to wonder "Where was this man two months ago before Glen, before this baby." She finds herself feeling a bit overjoyed when Glen appears to be accepting and wants to be present for every step of the pregnancy. Alex then moves through a series of challenges as she attempts to balance her personal and professional choices, while dealing with the physical and emotional aspects usually associated with pregnancy. One incident ostensibly leads to the death of Alex's only child and a friendship that spanned a decade. Alex feels guilty and turns heavenward conveying that "I feel that I am at the end of my rope. Just take this pain away."In the closing pages Alex decides to look forward to a future that she seems to be building on her own terms. She recalls past experiences and hints at the underlying theme of the story, thinking, "if all of this has taught me anything I have learned to first love myself and live for me." This tale combines elements of suspense as well as emotion and is designed to capture the imagination as well as to provoke thought.

Download or read book Fed Up written by Rick Perry and published by Hachette UK. This book was released on 2010-11-15 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now, do not misunderstand me, America is great. But we are fed up with being over-taxed and over-regulated. We are tired of being told how much salt to put on our food, what kind of cars we can drive, what kinds of guns we can own, what kind of prayers we are allowed to say and where we can say them, what we are allowed to do to elect political candidates, what kind of energy we can use, what doctor we can see. What kind of nation are we becoming? I fear it's the very kind the Colonists fought against. But perhaps most of all, we are fed up because deep down we know how great America has always been, how many great things the people do in spite of their government, and how great the nation can be in the future if government will just get out of the way. Our fight is clear. We must step up and retake the reins of our government from a Washington establishment that has abused our trust. We must empower states to fight for our beliefs, elect only leaders who are on our team, set out to remind our fellow Americans why liberty is guaranteed in the Constitution, and take concrete steps to take back our country. The American people have never sat idle when liberty's trumpet sounds the call to battle -- and today that battle is for the soul of America.

Book excerpt: Sam Bonham—bad husband, deadbeat dad, and possible criminal on the run from the law—wanders out of modern-day East Texas into an ersatz Wild West boomtown created for a movie that never happened. And when Sam strikes a blow against the gangsters who’ve been terrorizing the town, the locals look to him to save them. He’s no hero, but he’s stumbled upon someone who is: John Wayne. But the John Wayne of this story is not the stalwart lawman of Hollywood films—he’s a seventy-two-year-old man who had himself cryogenically frozen. He’s weak, bald, frail…and unrecognizable to everyone but Sam. In The Duke’s “defrosted” state, he’s not entirely himself. In fact, he believes he’s actually Ethan Edwards, the character he played in The Searchers, one of Wayne’s most beloved films. Ethan or Duke or Marion Morrison, at his side Sam learns how to be a man, and a hero—and a pretty good shot! As he takes on the Old West gang of thugs, he finds that he might have become a family man at last. But back in the real world, someone has his eye on Sam’s wife, and if Sam doesn’t get back soon, the results could be devastating.
