Acerca de esta escucha
A renowned doula shares powerful lessons on healing and thriving through the murky seasons of life in this moving, intimate guide to deeper self-awareness and radical joy.
“This book is a beacon of resilience. . . . A must-read for anyone committed to growth.”—Erica Chidi Cohen, author of Nurture
We’ve all been there: We take a pause, look at our lives, and desire more—more from our relationships, more from our wellness journeys, maybe simply more from ourselves. For some, it might be more fun, more peace, more exploration—but what does it take to get to the other side of living in survival mode? In On Thriving, Brandi Sellerz-Jackson helps us wade through what she calls the four great labors of our lives—labors that she’s had to overcome and that she has led many clients through.
Drawing from her experiences as a doula and intimate storytelling from her own life, Sellerz-Jackson guides us through the many phases of these great labors—labors that we can get stuck in, stunting our ability to thrive. Across age, gender, economic status, or background, we all move through the great labor of our relationships, our mental health, grief and loss, and the feeling of being othered. Sellerz-Jackson doesn’t shy away from the pitfalls of these labors but rather challenges us to actively remain present within them and ask ourselves: What do I need to thrive in the space I’m currently in? In On Thriving, you’ll come to recognize the survival tools you’ve picked up along the way and exchange them for thriving tools and “rich-uals.” You’ll commit to no longer making a home out of chaos and rediscovering sanctuary within yourself.
Comparing our thriving to that of plant life, Sellerz-Jackson simplifies the complicated—and oftentimes overwhelming—journey as we attempt to grow in an inhospitable environment. With insightful and vulnerable storytelling, she invites a deep, soul-stirring investigation of our past and present to gather all that we need to thrive right where we are, right now.

Historia
Growing up in Brooklyn, New York, it never occurred to Uché Blackstock and her twin sister, Oni, that they would be anything but physicians. In the 1980s, their mother headed an organization of Black women physicians, and for years the girls watched these fiercely intelligent women in white coats tend to their patients and neighbors, host community health fairs, cure ills, and save lives.

Historia
Poetry and science, as Popova writes in her introduction, "are instruments for knowing the world more intimately and loving it more deeply." In 15 short essays on subjects ranging from the mystery of dark matter and the infinity of pi to the resilience of trees and the intelligence of octopuses, Popova tells the stories of scientific searching and discovery. These stories are interwoven with details from the very real and human lives of scientists—many of them women, many underrecognized—and poets inspired by the same questions and the beauty they reveal.

Historia
In the tradition of Octavia Butler, here is radical self-help, society-help, and planet-help to shape the futures we want. Change is constant. The world, our bodies, and our minds are in a constant state of flux. They are a stream of ever-mutating, emergent patterns. Rather than steel ourselves against such change, Emergent Strategy teaches us to map and assess the swirling structures and to read them as they happen, all the better to shape that which ultimately shapes us, personally and politically.

Reseñas de la Crítica
“This book is a beacon of resilience. Brandi Sellerz-Jackson offers vital and tender insights for navigating life’s challenges with grace and strength. . . . A must-read for anyone committed to growth.”—Erica Chidi Cohen, author of Nurture
“Sellerz-Jackson’s book is more of an invitation than homework. She encourages us to embrace the darkness as well as the light. Both can be our companion. She is the ideal guide to usher you across the threshold of a new kind of self-discovery. Her mission is for people to stop going through the motions and to finally start savoring their lives.”—Lena Waithe, Emmy award-winning screenwriter, actress, and producer
“An honest, kind, and powerful book to get one’s life back on track . . . Sellerz-Jackson reminds us that thriving is not something that we ‘achieve’ after we do the work. Rather it is something we can experience during all seasons of life, no matter where we are on our healing journey.”—Angela Rye, award-winning host, commentator, and CEO of IMPACT Strategies

An inspiring book, read beautifully
I loved this book. I listened to the story, and Brandi's love for her book was palpable. I felt like I was being spoken to by a good friend. Her book felt warm and validating: as a woman, as a mother, I understood so much of what she was saying. Even though our struggles and traumas are not identical, I felt like she had practical advice for moving beyond surviving our lives and striving to thrive there. Although that may seem obvious from the title, I walked away from this book deeply impacted by her words, which resonated with me for months after I read it. I am buying a hard copy so I can go back and re-read key passages when I need a reminder that I have all the tools that I need, that I am enough. Thanks, Brandi, for your bravery in sharing this gift of a book.

Overpromising
The book starts out very well, it claims to help the reader, and at first the focus is more or less on the reader. But soon after the book simply becomes the retelling of author’s life story. Would be fine for autobiography but for a book that claims to be written for the sake of helping the reader it looses its focus, and therefore stops serving its purpose.

Beautiful and uplifting
Her words flow like poetry, the book is just beautiful. It’s encouraging and uplifting. Her story feels like many of our stories with the hope that one day we too will feel the joy within ourselves and our lives
