A Godsend for a soon to be new parent

Revisado: 05-22-23 El oyente recibió este título gratis

I knew I chose the right listen right from the beginning of this book. Jocelyn Goodwin is clearly and expert, and has seen just about any anxiety inducing reason that causes new parents to freak out that I can imagine. She covers everything topic and more I can think of, breast feeding was the most enlightening section for me. There is MUCH more to it than I thought. I have a few friends who have had their first babies and all of them seem to have their own strong opinions about what is the absolute right way to handle challenges that will come- especially the dreaded sleep schedule. I love love love that Jocelyn frequently assures that ALL babies are different and just because. your experience is different does not mean you are doing anything wrong. All the information online, friends, and even your doctors might will probably tell what their ideas on what is "right", but don't freak out of your baby is is happier doing something different. This reassuring attitude is my favorite part of the book, and it continues throughout every topic covered. Not just a great read for mom - daddy's can definitely benefit from a listen too.

A Great Way to Prepare for any Trip

Revisado: 04-27-23 El oyente recibió este título gratis

Powerful Affirmations for Travel is a great addition to any travelers routine before they start a journey away from home. It does a fantastic job reinforcing the positives one should have on their mind- everything from confidence in the packing process, to trying new regional food. If you get nervous when planning your vacation’s day to day schedule (like myself) this audio will put you at ease. Loved it!

Dating Isn't as Scary as it Seems

Revisado: 04-26-23 El oyente recibió este título gratis

Those first dates can be scary, no one likes a long uncomfortable silence...but after reading Swipe to Play I now have a plethora of open-ended conversation starters. I also want to be clear that thi is not just a boring list of questions- the commentary is entertaining and picturing follow up conversations made me actually laugh out loud several times.

There is an extremely wide array of topics offered up, but more importantly, a huge range of how serious a question may be. The reaction "tell me the most spontaneous thing you've ever done" will likely get a very different reaction than "describe the worst relationship you've ever had". *(These aren't actual questions from the book I'm giving away, JUST examples). This sort of variety is really important to find real chemistry. You can progressively move from silly ice-breakers to the more serious stuff where you really start to see a true-self being revealed. The book also emphasizes why "yes or no" questions are a quick journey to dreaded silence, all the open-ended questions have the potential to start a very long conversation. Success!

Give it a listen you won't regret it.

Motivation For Be Healthy

Revisado: 04-17-23 El oyente recibió este título gratis

The Whole Body Restart is one of the most comprehensive and practical guides to healthy eating for seniors that I've ever come across. The author's advice is grounded in scientific research, but it's presented in a way that's easy to understand and implement. What I appreciate most about this book is that it's not about restrictive diets or impossible-to-follow meal plans. Instead, it offers simple yet effective strategies for incorporating more nutrient-dense foods into your diet, and it emphasizes the importance of staying active and engaged as you age.

Dicipline Made Simple

Revisado: 04-16-23 El oyente recibió este título gratis

I don't think I'll ever look at a child's tantrum the same way again...Discipline Like a Pro does a fantastic job explaining how classic commands like "go to your room" just don't work. There is a whole psychology behind in a child's mind that doesn't work like an adult's (this should be obvious but unfortunately is too easily ignored). It's sad that some children get labeled as a "problem child" when really it may be a simple shift in discipline techniques that would change everything for the better. I don't have kids yet, but, my friends/family but I will definitely be recommending this to friends and family who do.

Feeling Prepared!

Revisado: 04-16-23 El oyente recibió este título gratis

I used to think being prepared meant having some canned food and a couple gallons of water in my garage...Not the case! Jonathan Nash really makes you think about what it would take to live comfortably should the worst happen. Canned beans and rice are not enough. He also makes it clear that being fully prepared isn't necessarily cheap - and gives tips on how to store up over time. A must read for anyone, you don't have to be paranoid- it's about being smart and feeling secure.

Eyeopening

Revisado: 04-15-23 El oyente recibió este título gratis

This book did not read like a typical history book - it was extremely entertaining and revealed connections between the past and present I had no idea existed. My favorite part starts at the beginning, with the ancient Greek philosophers. It's amazing how people's thoughts so long ago have survived in the modern sciences. I also enjoyed learning about Catholicism's influence, religion and western philosophy are strongly intertwined. 5 stars, a great read for history nuts and anyone interested in philosophy.

Informative and Entertaining

Revisado: 04-15-23 El oyente recibió este título gratis

"Foraging the Land" was clearly written by an expert forager. Eddie Holden knows all the tips and tricks one could hope to learn from a book - and he takes the dangers of mistakenly eating the wrong plant very seriously; something I was concerned about being an total beginner. This book doesn't just list off different plants, he also describes the basics of botany and even how every plant is best cooked. The narration is enjoyable to listen to, and the writing very professional. 5 stars all around!

What an awesome experience!

Revisado: 04-12-23

Journey Through the Solar System is not like any other audiobook ,(or book for that matter), that I've ever experienced. The narration walks you through a rocket launch as if YOU are the one heading to space and then narrates an epic ride through space. The narration is professional, comical, and supplemented with fantastic sound effects. It feels like I just came back from a great day at the planetarium! This is a great read for anyone wanting a serious brush up on their outer space knowledge in a unique storytelling format.

Should have read this years ago!

Revisado: 04-11-23 El oyente recibió este título gratis

I have always considered myself “money dumb” when it comes to making money with stocks- and any other book that I’ve tried to gain some insight on how it all works has either been too complicated or bored me to tears. Not with this book! Brian’s insights and strategies were not only easy to understand, but also kept me interested. I love the human psychology aspect that is brought to light, you really need to know more than just numbers. Definitely a must read for anyone who wants succeed in the financial market.
