Drained
The popular understanding of the 'mental load' often reduces it down to managing a list of household chores and logistics. Sociologist Leah Ruppanner reveals that for women, mental load actually goes much deeper: it's a complex form of emotional labour that requires thinking five steps ahead, keeping relationships intact, creating experiences that keep all members of the family happy and thriving, and more. In Drained, Ruppanner outlines the 8 distinct types of mental load performed across 7 unique stages, highlighting what makes the mental load so uniquely heavy for women. But what if we stop blaming ourselves and instead make practical, impactful changes to our lives to prioritize our energy? With eye-opening, research-based insights, Drained offers a powerful toolkit to help women create richer, less overwhelming lives filled with more meaning and joy.

Bad Friend
We live in a society that heroises romantic love over platonic love, yet despite the attempts to revolutionise Valentines to Galentines and even Malentines, we still prioritise romantic relationships over friendships. Just look at the language we have for each stage; from seeing each other to dating, committing to one another to getting engaged and married. We even have multiple options for the same meaning, whether it's fuck buddies, non-exclusive, no strings attached, friends with benefits or a casual relationship. But when a person will have on average seven to ten romantic relationships in their lifetime and twenty-nine friends, why is it that the conversation on love is far greater than the conversation on friendship? And when only six of these friendships will stand the test of time, this means that the average person will experience the ending of twenty-three friendships in their lifetime - that's three times the amount of romantic breakups. As someone who has gone through a dozen friendship breakups, Michelle began to think she was A Bad Friend. She grieved in silence, shrouded by shame and secrecy, because when society doesn't make room for a conversation about friendship breakups, you learn not to either. Just like a romantic break up, have one too many and society starts poking flaws in why your relationships keep ending. But what if you aren't the problem? What if the problem is the way we think about friendship breakup? ad Friend will remove the stigma from friendships breakups. It will spark a much-needed conversation around friendships, making us question everything we have been taught about them. It will help the reader identify what they're looking for in a friendship, explore friendship during life changes, help the reader heal from fractures in friendships, and give advice on how to end a friendship, rules for better friendships and how to make new friends. Bad Friend is the book for anyone who has ever been hurt by a friend but it's also the book to read to know that you are not one.

The Power of Beliefs
MASTER THE BELIEFS THAT DRIVE SUCCESS. Each of us has a lens through which we see the world, one that has been crafted by every experience we’ve ever had and is made up of our conscious and unconscious beliefs. But even though this lens has remarkable predictive power on our outcomes in work and life, we are often unaware of how much it shapes our choices—and how much power we have to change it, and our lives, for the better. In The Power of Beliefs Shawn Achor draws from his groundbreaking work in fifty countries over twenty years to introduce a critical set of tools, the seven Core Power Beliefs:1. My Behavior Matters2. I Matter3. I Am Not Alone4. This Work is Meaningful5. I Have Things To Be Grateful for in the Present6. I Have Something to Give7. There Is Something Greater Than MeThe extent to which we embrace these beliefs is the strongest indicator of positive outcomes across all aspects of our lives. Using fascinating examples from his own research and the cutting-edge work of others, Achor shows just how powerful our beliefs can be. He shows us how to undertake the often challenging work of changing our beliefs to transform our lens, opening up a world of possibilities previously unseen. And the benefits don’t stop there: Once we know that change is possible, the next step is helping to strengthen the beliefs and trajectories of our family, friends, coworkers, and the world around us.

Pomalá produktivita
Neustále sme zahltení nemožne dlhým zoznamom úloh a nekonečných stretnutí. Namiesto toho, aby nás to posúvalo k lepším výkonom, generácia na pokraji vyhorenia sa musí rozhodnúť, či sa poddá kultúre zúfalého zhonu, alebo úplne odmietne svoje ambície. No sú to naozaj naše jediné možnosti?
Dlho pred príchodom pípajúcich e-mailových schránok a preplnených harmonogramov tí najkreatívnejší a najvplyvnejší filozofi, vedci, umelci a spisovatelia v histórii zvládli umenie vytvárať hodnotné diela s výdržou.
Vo svojej aktuálnej a provokatívnej knihe Cal Newport využíva ich múdrosť, aby radikálne transformoval naše moderné pracovné miesta. Na základe hlbokého výskumu návykov a myslenia rôznych slávnych mysliteľov – od Galilea a Isaaca Newtona po Jane Austenovú a Georgiu O'Keeffeovú – Newport stanovuje kľúčové princípy „pomalej produktivity“, udržateľnejšej alternatívy k bezcieľnej preťaženosti, ktorá charakterizuje našu súčasnosť. Kombináciou kultúrnej kritiky a systematického prístupu Newport dekonštruuje absurdnosti vlastné štandardným predstavám o produktivite a následne poskytuje plán, ako uniknúť preťaženiu a namiesto toho dosiahnuť nadčasovejší a humánnejší prístup k dosahovaniu zmysluplných výsledkov. Svet práce čaká nová revolúcia a pomalá produktivita je presne to, čo potrebujeme.
