She Who Remembers #author Megan Dalla-Camina

She Who Remembers: Awakening feminine wisdom in a world ready for her return More than the burnout, the endless striving, the quiet ache of disconnection. More than the roles she’s performed, the versions of herself she’s outgrown, the world that taught her she wasn’t enough. In this tender and timely book, best-selling author, PhD researcher, and feminine wisdom teacher Megan Dalla-Camina guides readers on a profound journey of remembrance. Drawing from decades of leadership work, personal spiritual practice, and academic research in women’s spirituality, she invites us to awaken the inner knowing that has never been lost – only forgotten. Blending soulful storytelling, cultural reflection, and spiritual insight, She Who Remembers offers a path to reclaim what has always belonged to us: our voice, our power, our truth. Through feminine codes of intuition, embodiment, devotion, presence, and the rhythm of our cycles and seasons, readers are gently guided back to the source of their own innate wisdom. This is not a book of instruction. It’s a book of awakening and initiation. One that reminds us we were never meant to do this alone. That remembering is a collective act.

ROW Your Business to Health #author Elizabeth Blackley

Healthy people; healthy outcomes. While employment is essential for survival today, it rarely holds the highest honour in our priorities, and the traditional notion of work-life balance oversimplifies a much more complex reality. We need to move beyond the industrial-era model that shaped our current systems and begin designing work cultures based on what we know supports, and what hinders, human performance. This book invites readers to reconsider how the experience of work is formed - from the rhythms influencing daily life to the environments that affect behaviour, energy, and clarity. Grounded in behavioural science and systems thinking, it explores the impact of building workplaces around the conditions in which people genuinely thrive. A Return on Wellness (ROW) occurs when investment in people strengthens clarity, energy, and psychological safety; these are the drivers of resilience and consistent performance. Organisations that cultivate these conditions gain steadier results, stronger engagement, and cultures able to meet complexity with confidence. For those reimagining the future of work, this is an offering of practical and human insights that align culture, environment, and performance. When applied deliberately, the business can leverage their ROW and sow sustainable results. Let's build businesses where people and performance thrive together.

The Parenting Paradox #author Dr Jenny Brown

The Parenting Paradox: Loving Our Children by Giving Them Space to Grow Many devoted parents instinctively step in to protect and guide their children yet struggle knowing when to step back. While "helicopter parenting" is widely discouraged, parents are often left without clear, practical alternatives. In The Parenting Paradox: Loving Our Children by Giving Them Space to Grow, Dr. Jenny Brown offers a new perspective--not about loving less, but about shifting the anxious energy that often comes with deep parental care to a more constructive type of love. Dr. Brown sheds light on the cultural forces shaping today's intensive parenting, revealing how well-meaning advice can often undermine a parent's growth and confidence. Through real-life experiences and professional insights, she challenges the message that constant intervention is necessary for a child to flourish and instead provides a thoughtful, lasting approach to fostering independence. Rather than offering a quick fix or the latest parenting trend, The Parenting Paradox provides a sustainable path forward. Dr. Brown helps parents navigate their own fears while giving their children space to build confidence and resilience. And in creating that space, parents also grow, gaining clarity in their role so they can become the loving leaders they aspire to be.

The Palace of Lost Virtue #author Anthea Hodgson

In 1898, Marigold Harrington arrives on the goldfields of Western Australia with conviction in her heart. The daughter of a prospector and a proud member of the Christian Women's Temperance Union, she dreams of rescuing women the gold rush has forgotten, those trapped in the shadows of brothels and bars. Across town, Pansy Arlington presides over the Palace of Pleasure, her own small empire built from ruin. When Marigold arrives at her door, offering God's forgiveness, Pansy surprises her with unexpected kindness. The two women spark an unlikely friendship, but in a rough, lawless town built on greed and desire, their bond will be tested by betrayal, violence and a crime that will echo through the years.

How to Love the World #author Ilka Tampke

Perhaps motherhood is always a promise that cannot be kept. When her children are born, Nellika vows she will be the perfect mother. Motherhood is sacred, mythic: it will remake everything that is broken in her. But as her children grow, something buried is awakened, and the myth begins to crack. Only the cool, green silence of the forest, where Nellika walks every day, can soothe what is repeatedly torn apart by family life. One morning, deep in a remote part of the forest, she is struck by a falling manna gum branch. Shockingly injured and unable to move, her only hope is that someone will find her. As darkness falls on what might be her last day, Nellika must reckon with herself and the place where she lies. Is this fallen branch an accident or a punishment? As death draws close, the forest asks her: why should you live? And in the dark heart of her memories, she discovers that there is an answer. A powerful meditation on nature and healing, How to Love the World finds hope where none seems possible.
