Book excerpt: After 35 years of marriage, Janie J suddenly found herself single and sixty.Would she be able to start over?Would she be able to handle everything on her own?Would she need a chiropractor after using the riding lawn mower?Would her new business be enough to survive on?Would she be able to find new friends?Would she get into shape without plastic surgery?Would she ever be happy again?Would she find a new love?This is a true and honest and often funny biographical account of Janie J's adventures, misadventures, and discoveries.Her life seemed to be falling apart but in the middle of rebuilding her finances, doubling down on her business, finding new friends, getting fit and yes, looking for love, Janie J kept her wit about her and more importantly, her sense of humor. Single and Sixty is a poignant, honest and funny look at one woman's quest to survive and then thrive after divorce later in life. Janie J writes like a friend who is willing to give you self-help advice in the form of sharing her own foibles and failings. This isn't a self-improvement book.

It's relatable and encouraging to know that someone else has had a similar experience and come through it to the other side.For a simple guide showing you EXACTLY how Janie J pulled herself together and began creating her best life, get your copy of "Live the Life You Have Imagined" and the "Live the Life You Have Imagined" companion journal.Visit her website at www.JanieJ.net for ongoing encouragement, stories about Janie's continuing journey and for her original, inspirational poetry.

Book Synopsis Sixty-One by : Chris Paul

Download or read book Sixty-One written by Chris Paul. This book was released on 2023-06-20. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Instant New York Times, USA Today, Publishers Weekly, and Wall Street Journal Bestseller! A powerful and unexpected memoir of family, faith, tragedy, and life's most important lessons. The day after future NBA superstar Chris Paul signed his letter of intent to play college basketball for Wake Forest, he received a world-shattering phone call. His grandfather, Nathaniel "Papa" Jones, a pillar of the Winston-Salem community where he owned and operated the first Black-owned service station in North Carolina, was mugged and ultimately died from a heart attack resulting from the assault. His funeral filled the largest church in the county, which held over one thousand people. He was sixty-one years old. The day after burying his grandfather, Chris was coping the best way he knew how: by playing basketball for his high school team. After pouring in shot after shot, his last attempt was an airball purposely flung out of bounds from the foul line before Chris exited the game. The next day, local news headlines declared that he fell six points shy of the statewide single game high school scoring record. But he accomplished exactly what he set out to do: scoring sixty-one points, one for each year of life lived by his grandfather. In Sixty-One, Chris opens up about life beyond basketball and the role his grandfather played in molding him into the man and father he is today. He’ll speak about the foundation of faith and family he built his life upon, what it means to be a positive light within your community and beyond, and the importance of setting the proper example for future generations. Most importantly, Chris will talk about his home, Winston-Salem, and the close-knit family and village that raised him to become one of the most respected leaders in all of sports.

Book Synopsis Doing Sixty & Seventy by : Gloria Steinem

Download or read book Doing Sixty & Seventy written by Gloria Steinem. This book was released on 2014-03-04. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reflections on women’s aging from the New York Times–bestselling author who inspired the film The Glorias. One day I woke up and there was a seventy-year-old woman in my bed . . . Gloria Steinem has been an eloquent and outspoken voice for women’s rights and equality for more than four decades. In Doing Sixty & Seventy she addresses an essential concern of people everywhere—and especially of women: the issue of aging. Whereas turning fifty, in her experience, is “leaving a much-loved and familiar country,” turning sixty means “arriving at the border of a new one.” With insight, intelligence, wit, and heartfelt honesty, she explores the landscapes of this new country and celebrates what she has called “the greatest adventure of our lives.” While appreciating everybody’s experiences as different, Steinem sees these years as charged with possibilities. Dealing with stereotypes and the “invisibility” that often accompany a woman’s senior years can be as liberating as it is frustrating. It frees women as well as men to embrace that “full, glorious, alive-in-the-moment, don’t-give-a-damn yet caring-for-everything sense of the right now.” This ebook features an illustrated biography of Gloria Steinem including rare images and never-before-seen documents from the author’s personal collection.
