A laugh-out-loud collection of essays for anyone who’s ever been at a turning point in their life.

Mindy Kaling has found herself at a turning point. So in Why Not Me?, she shares her ongoing journey to find fulfilment and adventure in her adult life, be it falling in love at work, seeking new friendships inunlikely places, or attempting to be the first person in history to lose weight without any behaviour modification whatsoever.

In “How to Look Spectacular”, she reveals her tongue-in-cheek solutions for guaranteed on-camera beauty. “Player” tells the story of Mindy being seduced, then dumped, by a female friend in LA. And in “Soup Snakes”, she spills some secrets on her relationship with ex-boyfriend and close friend, B. J. Novak.

Mindy has put the anxieties, the glamour and the celebrations of her second coming-of-age into this book, to which anyone can relate. (And, if they can’t, they can skip to the parts where she talks about meeting Bradley Cooper.)

Everything you believe about how to lose weight is wrong. Weight gain and obesity are driven by hormones - in everyone - and only by understanding the effects of insulin and insulin resistance can we achieve lasting weight loss.

In this highly listenable and provocative book, Dr. Jason Fung sets out an original, robust theory of obesity that provides startling insights into proper nutrition. In addition to his five basic steps - a set of lifelong habits that will improve your health and control your insulin levels - Dr. Fung explains how to use intermittent fasting to break the cycle of insulin resistance and reach a healthy weight - for good.

But from this and the poetic expressions of Psalm 40 has come the reward: a new song for her soul, given by her Savior and offered to you in Get Out of That Pit—friend to friend. This is Beth’s most stirring message yet of the sheer hope, utter deliverance, and complete and glorious freedom of God:

I waited patiently for the Lord
He turned to me and heard my cry
He lifted me out of the slimy pit
He set my feet on a rock
He put a new song in my mouth
It is a story, a song—a salvation—that you can know too.

Devotional: Get Out of That Pit by Beth Moore

Back to Human explains how a more socially connected workforce creates greater fulfillment, productivity, and engagement while preventing burnout and turnover. 

New York Times bestselling author Dan Schawbel guides the next generation of leaders to create a workplace where teammates feel genuinely connected, engaged, and empowered to grow strong interpersonal skills rather than relying on technology. Based on Schawbel's exclusive research studies--featuring the perspectives of over 2,000 managers and employees across different age groups and from the US, UK, China, India, Brazil and other countries--Back to Human reveals why electronic and virtual communication, though vital and useful, actually contributes to a stronger sense of isolation at work than ever before. 

The corporate cultures we are experiencing right now need to change, and Schawbel offers a new leadership model featuring The Work-Life Balance Myth (we should consider work-life integration instead, which creates more synergies between all areas of your life and puts you in control of how you allocate your time), Shared Learning (how sharing knowledge allows you to stay relevant despite industry disruptions), and more. The book includes:
Interviews with 100 leaders from notable companies including Facebook, Honeywell, HBO, Starbucks, General Mills, GE, Nike, American Express, Four Seasons, Walmart, TIME, LinkedIn, and The U.S. Air Force.
A self-assessment called "The Work Connectivity Index" that measures that strength of team relationships.
Exercises, examples and activities that readers can work on individually, or as a team, which will help them improve their leadership skills.
Tips and strategies on how to increase personal productivity, be more collaborative and become more fulfilled at work.

BACK TO HUMAN by Dan Schawbel. Read by Robert Petkoff - Audiobook Excerpt

“ANYTHING CAN BE TAUGHT, BUT YOU CAN ONLY GO SO FAR WITHOUT NATURAL TALENT.”

Everyone thinks they can be a great entrepreneur.

But is that what you’re best at?

If a rabbit is trying hard to be a frog, it may make a decent frog. But it would be a much better rabbit.

To be successful, you have to combine your natural talent with hard work.

Even the most dedicated football player can’t make it to the NFL without innate skill.

That’s why I’m revisiting a conversation I had with a person who was born to be an entrepreneur and who has spent his life pursuing it: the legendary Gary Vaynerchuck.

Gary Vaynerchuck is CEO of the full-service advertising agency VaynerMedia and is a venture capitalist who has invested in companies like Snapchat, Birchbox, Venmo, and Uber. He’s a 5-time New York Times bestselling author and a sought-after public speaker.

Gary makes the argument just putting in the time and energy it might not be enough to make a successful business.

Learn how to deal with failure in entrepreneurship on Episode 702.


In This Episode You Will Learn:

What you need to be a successful entrepreneur (1:30)

The thing you need to be okay with when you’re an entrepreneur (2:30)

How to find out what you’re naturally best at (3:10)

What to ask the five people closest to you (3:40)

Change Your Mind about Failure

Connect to the world around you and realize the enormous potential in talking to strangers.

Every day, random encounters really can change lives, when you make them happen the right way and leverage the connection at the other end.

David Topus' life-changing message is that we should "always connect", which means going beyond online relationships and engaging in the random, real-life interactions that have unlimited potential to supercharge businesses, accelerate careers, and enrich your life.

In Talk to Strangers, you will discover:

    Why there is opportunity through the people you meet wherever you go
    The four key beliefs of successful random connectors
    Techniques for creating comfort and trust quickly with complete strangers
    How to optimize and monetize your newly-established contacts

SOMETIME SAVING SOMEONE ELSE WILL SAVE YOU.

Even the most successful people can struggle with self-esteem.

You won’t be able to share your gifts with the world if you don’t feel worthy.

Often, finding a cause we believe in can cause us to figure out who we are and what we stand for.

Be empowered to make a choice you believe in.

That’s why I am so grateful to share a conversation I had with an actress who has found meaning by taking a stand on Animal Rights: Alicia Silverstone.

Alicia Silverstone is an actress, entrepreneur, New York Times bestselling author, and animal rights advocate. She’s started acting at an early age. She is known for starring as Cher in the comedy hit Clueless, and Batgirl in Batman and Robin, and she currently stars in the TV show American Woman. She’s written The Kind Diet: A Simple Guide to Feeling Great, Losing Weight, and Saving the Planet and The Kind Mamma. In 2004, Alicia was named PETA's "Sexiest Female Vegetarian.”

Alicia shared how becoming famous at such a young age challenged her and caused her to find a cause about which she was passionate.

Learn about Alicia Silverstone’s personal journey of self-worth and hear about her new endeavors on Episode 709.


Some Questions I Ask:

What was your biggest challenge after Clueless? (5:17)

Did your self-esteem increase after you made decisions about your diet? (12:54)

If you could only do one, which would you choose: acting or spreading your message? (26:30)

How were you able to handle all the fame? (35:13)

How did you learn about business? (41:37)

How do we cultivate our intuition? (53:09)


In This Episode You Will Learn:

What the Kind Diet is (11:00)

Why “Hollywood Diets” don’t work (12:15)

What Alicia believes is the root of the world’s problems (19:50)

The Secret to Self Worth with Alicia Silverstone

Many of us spend hours each day on our smartphones, whether it's texting friends or using our GPS for directions. And each of those actions leaves behind a digital breadcrumb. In this week's episode we're digging into our archives to explain how researchers are mining this data to improve health. JP Onnela, associate professor of biostatistics at Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, will explain how harnessing smartphone information can be used to improve everything from our mental health to recovery from surgery.

Narrated by John N. Oswalt.

Isaiah wrestles with the realities of people who are not convicted by the truth but actually hardened by it and a God whose actions sometimes seem unintelligible, or, even worse, who appears to be absent. Yet Isaiah penetrates these experiences to see a greater reality. Isaiah portrays God's rule over history and his capacity to take the worst of human actions and use them for good. He declares the truth that even in the darkest hours, the Holy One of Israel is infinitely trustworthy.

Isaiah 1-39: Audio Lectures features Old Testament scholar John Oswalt teaching through the book of Isaiah in short, engaging, and challenging lessons. Based on Oswalt's Isaiah commentary in the NIV Application Commentary series, these lessons bring the meaning of Isaiah into the 21st century. As Oswalt works through the book passage-by-passage, he comments on the text itself and then explores issues in Israel's culture and in ours that help us understand the meaning of each passage.
