Download or read book Stuck in Reverse written by Susan Louise Gabriel and published by . This book was released on 2020-04-23 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: She is forced into the fight of her life when a horrific mistake shreds her family and threatens to destroy everyone and everything she cares about. So what do you do when you're stuck in reverse, trapped in a life that's so bizarre, no one would believe it? With humor and honesty, Susan Louise Gabriel takes us on a jaw-dropping journey that reveals how God uses extraordinary experiences and unimaginably painful events to shape our lives into a masterpiece. A shy misfit with a traditional upbringing, Susan surprisingly grows up to become a notorious crusader and leader against injustice. She later transforms from a woman with a strong moral compass into a promiscuous extrovert who destroys marriages and upends lives. False accusations, attempted suicide, life-altering medication side effects, depression, and personality changes punctuate Susan's life and destroy hope. She retraces her steps from a low of total disbelief in God--through calamities, hardships, and weird experiences--to arrive at joy and an unshakable faith in God. It is within adversity that Susan begins to understand God's love, the power of faith, and what an intimate relationship with God looks like. She finds that God's grace is so abundant, He gives us the opportunity to start over again--multiple times, if necessary--and takes care of us every step of the way, even when we don't feel His presence. Susan ultimately learns how to let go and trust God with her life, hear God's voice, and trust God's timing. Written in a quirky, conversational style, this inspirational autobiography is a message of hope to others who have struggled to conquer depression, find themselves, and turn an upended life the right way around again. Audiences will find that Stuck in Reverse: Finding Joy in the Middle of Weird is a book that deserves to be read. It's easy to read, hard to put down, and impossible to forget. A cross between a memoir and an autobiography, the book footnotes specific topics, such as autoimmune diseases, false accusations, genetic mutations, medication side effects, and MBTI personality types, with references to relevant articles and studies that many readers will find helpful. If you are looking for a story that will move you--make you laugh, cry, and stare at the page in disbelief--you need to read Stuck in Reverse: Finding Joy in the Middle of Weird. Click the BUY NOW button at the top and read Susan's story. Robert VanCleave, Psychologist-- Susan, thank you so much for this courageous story of the many challenging events in your life. You have had so much packed into your life; fascinating, sometimes thrilling and joyful, other times when things came crashing down. I am confident that God can make use of your life in a manner that you may never have dreamed. I applaud the depth of your perception in terms of relationships, and I am amazed and impressed with your recollection and detail. You have a style that really "draws in" the reader. Unbeknownst to all of us, His timing was to bring us together at the right time. I wish you the best in the important work you are doing in retelling this story, in hopes that government will always be mindful that its purpose is to serve the people. Reader review-- I've just finished reading this wonderful book! I truly loved it and would recommend Stuck in Reverse by Susan Louise Gabriel to anyone with a sense of humor who cares about family. It's filled with ups and downs, but by the grace of God, the author of this marvelous book was able to trace her steps back to joy. Don't read it when you have a closet to clean, however, because once you start reading, you won't be able to stop. If you've had challenges in your personal life and are seeking that backroad to joy, this is a book for you.

Repotting Your Life brings this same wisdom to your career, relationships, and goals—and right when you need it most: at that soul-searching moment when you feel “stuck.” An award-winning inspirational speaker, Frances Edmonds discovered this ideal metaphor for self-reinvention when she uprooted herself from London to participate in Stanford’s Distinguished Careers Institute for midlife professionals.

In Repotting Your Life, she shares prompts and exercises (and gentle humor) to guide you through each stage of this journey. The hardest part of repotting can be to notice that what nourished you then is stifling you now. No matter your age or stage of life, you’re never done growing: The summit of one adventure is the starting point of the next. Whether you’re craving a career move, a change of surroundings, or a new phase of a relationship, Repotting Your Life will help you design a future full of fresh possibility where you can truly blossom.

Book excerpt: Maybe it’s the end of the world, but not for Candace Chen, a millennial, first-generation American and office drone meandering her way into adulthood in Ling Ma’s offbeat, wryly funny, apocalyptic satire, Severance. "A stunning, audacious book with a fresh take on both office politics and what the apocalypse might bring." —Michael Schaub, NPR.org “A satirical spin on the end times-- kind of like The Office meets The Leftovers.” --Estelle Tang, Elle NAMED A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR BY: NPR * The New Yorker ("Books We Loved") * Elle * Marie Claire * Amazon Editors * The Paris Review (Staff Favorites) * Refinery29 * Bustle * Buzzfeed * BookPage * Bookish * Mental Floss * Chicago Review of Books * HuffPost * Electric Literature * A.V.

With the recent passing of her Chinese immigrant parents, she’s had her fill of uncertainty. She’s content just to carry on: She goes to work, troubleshoots the teen-targeted Gemstone Bible, watches movies in a Greenpoint basement with her boyfriend. So Candace barely notices when a plague of biblical proportions sweeps New York. Then Shen Fever spreads. Families flee. Companies cease operations. The subways screech to a halt. Her bosses enlist her as part of a dwindling skeleton crew with a big end-date payoff. Soon entirely alone, still unfevered, she photographs the eerie, abandoned city as the anonymous blogger NY Ghost. Candace won’t be able to make it on her own forever, though. Enter a group of survivors, led by the power-hungry IT tech Bob. They’re traveling to a place called the Facility, where, Bob promises, they will have everything they need to start society anew. But Candace is carrying a secret she knows Bob will exploit. Should she escape from her rescuers? A send-up and takedown of the rituals, routines, and missed opportunities of contemporary life, Ling Ma’s Severance is a moving family story, a quirky coming-of-adulthood tale, and a hilarious, deadpan satire. Most important, it’s a heartfelt tribute to the connections that drive us to do more than survive.
