We''re in this together. For the past two years, Joyce Vance has signed off posts on her chart-topping Substack ''Civil Discourse'' with these four words. In that time, she''s guided readers through a continued erosion of democratic norms, the unprecedented felony conviction of an ex-president, and the approaching spectre of a second Trump Administration. Now, that it''s upon us, Vance helps us understand how to avoid burnout and despair and exercise the democratic muscles we need to save the Republic. GIVING UP IS UNFORGIVABLE is a clarion call to action - putting our current crisis in historical context and sketching out a vision for where we go next. Vance''s message is hopeful at its heart, while acknowledging the daunting challenges that lay ahead. She is the Constitutional Law professor you never knew you needed, explaining the legal context, the political history, and the practical reasons that the rule of law still matters, while also empowering you to do something from the small (that conversation you''ve been meaning to have with your uncle, volunteering for your favourite political cause) to the big (starting a grassroots movement, running for political office). Consider this the birth of a countermovement to Project 2025, a rallying cry for citizen engagement to counter the 2nd Trump Administration and save American democracy.

In 2022, Clea Shearer thought: This is going to be the best year of my life. The Home Edit, the company she had cofounded and worked so hard to grow, was acquired by Hello Sunshine. She had just finished filming the second season of her Emmy-nominated show Get Organized with The Home Edit. She turned forty surrounded by candles, flowers, friends, and family. And then, on March 8, 2022, she was diagnosed with breast cancer. Her life as she knew it was over. But life is full of nuances. As the months went by, Clea started to feel like she had been given an opportunity. What if she could share everything she experienced and learned throughout this process, so it would be a little less frightening for someone else? If she could manage to do that, maybe she could turn her cancer purposeful. Cancer Is Complicated is the book that Clea wishes she''d had when she started on her cancer journey. It is a memoir and a guidebook, blending Clea''s experiences and all the wisdom and advice she''s gathered through this process. The book follows Clea through every step of her journey, from the moment she first felt a lump in her breast, through treatment, to where she is today. Clea also offers insights on questions big and small-from how to be your own biggest advocate, to knowing whom in your circle to share your diagnosis with, to understanding the emotional side of cancer, to what to bring with you to chemo, to things to eat when nothing else tastes good, and so much more. Clea has built an incredibly successful career on empowering and helping people navigate the overwhelm of their homes-offering accessible ways for us to begin to put our lives in order. Here, she applies her wisdom to one of the most overwhelming and frightening experiences any human being ever has to face: cancer and illness. Warm, honest, and straightforward in its approach, Cancer Is Complicated is for anyone with cancer or anyone who loves someone with cancer.
