"The Mental Health Monologues" is a poignant collection of transformative plays written by acclaimed playwright Carl Stillitano. Each play delves into the complexities of the human psyche, exploring themes of resilience, healing, and self-discovery. Through a series of captivating monologues, the characters share their personal journeys, offering insight into the profound impact of mental health on their lives. As readers immerse themselves in these compelling narratives and read the monologues aloud, they embark on a therapeutic journey of self-reflection and empathy. The act of vocalizing the words brings a sense of catharsis, allowing emotions to surface and be acknowledged. Through the shared experience of reading, individuals find comfort in knowing they are not alone in their struggles. Furthermore, the act of reading these monologues aloud fosters a deeper understanding of mental health issues and promotes open dialogue. By giving voice to the characters' experiences, readers break down barriers and stigma surrounding mental illness, fostering a sense of community and support. “Each time I read Mental Health Monologues I’m absorbed by the powerful messages that give me insights through the characters’ stories. Reading the monologues on the podcast was such a rush! …It was empowering to bring the words to life, it got me out of my head & I felt much lighter afterwards. I encourage everyone who wants to grow as a person to read Transformative Plays. I read 6 of them in a month & I am not a “reader!” Lately when I have tough times, I find myself thinking about the plays & then remember something that helps.” - Anita Sreckov "These monologues provide a platform for individuals to share their personal experiences with mental health challenges, reducing the feelings of isolation and offering valuable insights into these issues. They inspire hope and resilience as individuals share their recovery journeys, fostering empathy, connection, and empowerment. It's comforting to know that others share these feelings and experiences. This book should be a staple in every home and school for parents, teachers, and students alike." - Shayla

“If young adults could be guided in the right direction for a life journey of meaning and purpose, we would be grooming the leaders of tomorrow for a better world. This book is the perfect guide.” —Deepak Chopra, MD, FACP, founder of the Chopra Center for Wellbeing What am I going to do for the rest of my life? This question is familiar for young people at a turning point—whether it’s facing the end of high school, college, graduate school, or just a dead-end job. Maybe they have the degree they want but don’t know where to start their job search. Perhaps they’re still choosing a major and, given the range—from “Biochemistry” to “Adventure Education”—are lost in the options. Maybe they’re facing a mountain of debt but don’t want to get locked into a job they hate. While other books might advise writing resumes or preparing for interviews, they only go so far. Young people want more than just another job—they want a life, and a meaningful one at that. Enter The Big Picture. Created by the leading authority on self-help research and reviewed by over six hundred college students, Dr. Christine B. Whelan’s The Big Picture offers a guide to discovering one’s talents, dreams, and desires that can lead one to a fulfilling career but fulfilling life. It guides young people to take a step back and look at the “big picture” of who they are, what they want, and why they’re here. Through quizzes and questionnaires which college students have vetted, Whelan guides the reader through “big picture” questions like, What are my talents—and how can I use those to help others and create meaning? How have my life experiences shaped who I am and what I can give? What do I value—and how can I be happy while being true to those values? Although there are endless books on finding a job, this is the first book that presents research-based and tested material to help young people answer the question, What will I do with my life? The Big Picture provides the resources needed to find—and live—a purposeful life. An excellent gift for a graduate or a guide for yourself.

"At last. At last this very important book has been written... It will empower legions of women to step into their greatness.'

SHIRLEY CONRAN The groundbreaking book that gives every woman the practical skills they need to begin PLAYING BIG. Five years ago, Tara Mohr began to see a pattern in her work as an expert in leadership: women with tremendous talent, ideas and aspiration were not recognising their own brilliance. They felt that they were playing small' in their lives and careers and wanted to play bigger', but didn't know how. And so Tara devised a step-by-step programme for playing big from the inside out: this book is the result. Many women are aware of the changes they need to make to be more successful, but they don't know how to become that more confident woman they'd like to be. Playing Big provides real, practical to

The end of formal hostilities in any given conflict provides an opportunity to transform society in order to secure a stable peace. This book builds on the existing feminist international relations literature as well as lessons of past cases that reinforce the importance of including women in the post-conflict transition process, and are important to our general understanding of gender relations in the conflict and post-conflict periods. Post-conflict transformation processes, including disarmament, demobilization and reintegration (DDR) programs, transitional justice mechanisms, reconciliation measures, and legal and political reforms, which emerge after the formal hostilities end demonstrate that war and peace impact, and are impacted by, women and men differently. By drawing on a strong theoretical framework and a number of cases, this volume provides important insight into questions pertaining to the end of conflict and the challenges inherent in the post-conflict transition period that are relevant to students and practitioners alike.
