How to Connect with What's Most Important in a Hyperconnected World. Social media has the power to do a lot of good, but it can also get in the way of authenticity and create a sense of disillusionment. In Overliked, pastor and author Rob Singleton, offers a compelling and compassionate view into how people can better leverage and enjoy social media without losing who they are. This book doesn't point fingers at people who use social media. It isn't anti-technology. It's a book about having true and authentic relationships with others and holding on to a healthy sense of self. Social media, the author says, is a way to connect people, and real relationships are at the heart of it all. But when people recognize they've begun to look for acceptance in it or feel pressure to project something about themselves that isn't true, that's a problem that runs deep. Using Biblical wisdom, research, references to pop culture, engaging stories, and personal insights from his experience as a pastor, parent, and fellow social-media user, Singleton helps readers see that the real them is better than any image they project or avatar they create. Written for those who believe-for this generation and the next-that they need to get a better handle on social media in their lives and the lives of those they care about, this book will deliver a powerful message and extend a sense of hope. Singleton writes with humility, sincerity, clarity, and humour, tackling a complicated issue in a way that is directly relevant and immediately relatable to readers..

The Tell-All that Helps All: You’re Never too Old, and It’s Never Too Late Treva Brandon Scharf paid her dues in the dating world. She survived countless romances, relationships, boyfriends, breakups, heartaches, and heartbreaks. She loved and lost, dumped and got dumped, and finally became a first-time bride at the age of 51. Scharf, a gifted blogger and writer, is ready to share all the juicy details of her long road to the altar. Her debut book is part self-help/dating advice, part-memoir, and 100% delightful. If you can stop laughing long enough, you’ll realize you’ve just met a one-of-a-kind force of nature who has managed to acquire an invaluable store of knowledge on life, love, and personal growth. Done Being Single: A Late Bloomer’s Guide to Love is a universal source of inspiration and practical advice. It doesn’t matter if you’re a late bloomer or early blossomer; male or female; single or partnered; millennial or midlifer. It doesn’t matter if you’re divorced, widowed, new on the market, stuck in dating hell, dreaming of getting married, or just dreaming of getting laid, there’s something for everyone. If you’re freaking out in your 20s, hyperventilating in your 30s, living a life of not-so-quiet desperation in your 40s (like Treva was), or needing a jump start in your 50s and beyond, she's got you covered. As a late bloomer, here’s what she's discovered: You don’t need to have it all figured out by a certain age. There’s no date to be married by or deadline for achievement. Just because you don’t hit your benchmarks in a timely fashion?or hit them at all?doesn’t make you a failure; it just makes you you. Even if you’re not technically a late bloomer, there’s always time to become who you really are or want to be. But the truth is, everyone is a late bloomer in some way. We’re all works in progress, and the learning, growing, and evolving never stops. Remember?your timeline is yours and yours alone, and you’ll bloom when you’re ready. The amazing thing is that once you do start blooming and see your talent, creativity, power, and potential begin to blossom, you’ll realize you had it in you the whole time. Some other things she discovered as a late bloomer are: Life doesn’t come with a grand plan, but if you’ve got one, follow it. You don’t need a vision of your future, but if you see it, keep it in your mind’s eye. You don’t need a road map, but if you have life GPS, use it. The only thing you need to do is be proactive. So start now. Go now. Launch now. Reinvent now. Bloom now. Envision the person you want to be and go be it.

The Buying Power of Women Although the female movement is interwoven into our social world and people preach “girl power,” brand experience expert Katie Mares has seen that this mindset hasn’t penetrated business branding or the experience businesses provide to women. Very few businesses focus on elevating “interaction” so that a brand experience includes a personal connection with the consumer and addresses their genuine interests and needs. This branding disconnect is a problem not only for female consumers but also for businesses that lose potential sales and women’s loyalty. CustomHer Experience provides businesses with the insight, guidance, and tools to • better understand the female consumer, • transform the transactional service a woman currently receives into the alluring, interactional experience she craves, • adjust their approach when interacting with customers, and • ignite a spark in their teams and companies. CustomHer Experience sends the clear message that true power comes when businesses focus on providing a brand and consumer experience that women?the world’s most influential consumers?can’t live without. When businesses start doing that?and doing it well?they can cultivate trust, build loyalty, earn referrals, and make top-line sales, and their female customers won’t want to go anywhere else. Katie Mares’s book is for anyone in business who wants to completely upend their industry.
