We’re the ones who walk into your house, into your emergency, into your life that will never be the same. When we walk out, we’re never quite the same either.In this debut collection of essays, Pace tells of his years as a career paramedic—wandering through the highs and the lows, the saves and the losses, the patients he remembers, and the ones he tries to forget.In 1997, Pace began his career as an EMT because he wanted to do something exciting. He wanted to help people too. And he thought those two things—excitement and helping people—would exist hand in hand. With a little sprinkle of glory thrown in for good measure.Twenty-three years and thousands of calls later—as an EMT, then paramedic, working in a helicopter and on the ground—he still hasn’t stumbled onto any glory, and he’s tired of the excitement. But some nights, even now, he finds scraps of humanity—beautiful pieces in the broken-up mosaic of the world.***Praise from Kevin Hazzard, author of A Thousand Naked Strangers: A Paramedic’s Wild Ride to the Edge and BackHilarious, tragic, and absolutely unforgettable—just like the job itself. Pulse thrums with a kinetic blast, yet chooses all the right moments to slow it down and let us feel the gravity of the situation. And while it’s said the best couples finish each other’s sentences, James and JK write them. I’ve read harrowing and comic stories of life in an ambulance, but never one where the spouse interjects to scoop up lost details or flip the perspective. The effect is magic. Read more

Vital Strategies Plus CBT Worksheets to Help Teens Manage Their Emotions and Overcome Teen Stressors.If you are a parent, then you know that teens these days have it far harder than you did.Statistics indicate that Americans aged 15 to 29 are the most stressed in the nation.Moreover, anxiety and depression affect around 70% of teens.Teens also struggle with specific skills such as anger management, starting and maintaining a conversation, and resolving conflicts peacefully.Some may have difficulties making social connections or meeting academic goals.“It’s always been that way,” you may say. Indeed, the brain doesn’t fully mature until you reach your mid-20s, which makes it harder to control impulses. This has always been the case.What has changed, however, is the barrage of online misinformation and pressure teens now face from social media and online use.Their idols are influencers, many of whom espouse shallow values and unrealistic expectations.Some have little interest in anything other than having “the perfect body,” designer clothes and jewelry, or fancy cars.Yet influencers represent a tiny minority of teens.Those wishing to succeed have a dramatically higher chance of doing so if they hone key emotional regulation and emotional intelligence skills—including expressing oneself assertively, time management, and conflict resolution.As a parent, you want to encourage your kids to have goals, without overwhelming them.You want to lend them a helping hand, but don’t know where to start. This practical, dynamic guide, featuring a plethora of CBT exercises, is here to help.Its aim is to allow your teen to work on their issues in their own time and at their own pace, in the comfort of their own home and without any external pressure. Within its pages they will discover:Practical, purposeful CBT exercises that create a positive feedback loop your teen can rely on when the going gets tough.How to challenge negative thoughts and stop cognitive distortions from leading them to poor decisions that are not based on evidence.How to reframe negative beliefs into positive ones, so they can boost their self-esteem and adopt a positive growth mindset.Fun behavioral experiments that will challenge them to exit their safety zone to get the results they desire.Powerful exercises for nipping stress and anxiety in the bud.Scientifically proven strategies that will enable them to strive in social situations—and give them the initiative to make plans and invite other teens along.How to allow their anger to lead them in the direction of positive change, without losing their cool.Worksheets that will motivate them to embrace productive thoughtswhen they are feeling depressed or down in the dumpsAnd much more.In case you think this book comprises just exercises, think again! It also explains the issues your teen child might be facing, with science-backed research to explain issues like impulsivity, emotional control, and anger.By reading this information before tackling exercises, your teen will understand that there are reasons behind their emotions.

***Following the publication of Mama Namibia in 2013, Paramount Chief Kuaima Riruako appointed Mari Serebrov as the Literary Laureate of the Herero Nation.***It’s 1904, and Germany is waging a war of extermination against the Herero in South West Africa so it can claim the Herero lands. After her family is killed in a German ambush, 12-year-old Jahohora struggles to survive as she wanders alone in the Omaheke Desert, hiding from the soldiers. Meanwhile, Kov, a Jewish doctor who volunteered his services to the Kaiser’s army to prove his loyalty to the Fatherland, has that loyalty tested when he witnesses what is now recognized as the first genocide of the 20th century.“Mama Namibia is based on the compelling true story of an innocent Herero girl whose life portrays the suffering, perseverance, and resilience of the Herero and Nama people as they faced their most daunting test – a genocide that proved to be the training grounds for the Holocaust.”– Kuaima Riruako, Paramount Chief Ovaherero Traditional Authority, 2013REVIEWS:"A book that tells of the horrific Herero/Nama genocide ...

"If there were an ADHD self-help book group, I’d nominate this book to be at the top of the reading list."
-- Kathleen Nadeau, Ph.D., internationally recognized authority on ADHD and co-author of ADD-Friendly Ways to Organize Your Life

Stop paying the high cost of disorganization.

Late fees on forgotten bills. A home full of clutter and unfinished projects. Eroding respect with your friends, family, and colleagues. Health worries from doctor’s appointments you keep meaning to schedule. Nonstop anxiety as you wait for the other shoe to drop.

You deserve better.

Order from Chaos will teach you how your brain works and how to stop getting in your own way. Mixing stories from the trenches of her own experience as a mom and wife with ADHD with wise, well-researched advice from her years as a blogger at The ADHD Homestead, Jaclyn Paul shows you how to design your own system for restoring order.

Past failures don’t have to define you. Order from Chaos offers a helping hand to get you on the path to a more peaceful and rewarding life.

Praise for Order from Chaos:

"This is no ordinary 'get organized' book. In Order from Chaos, Jaclyn Paul seamlessly and engagingly weaves first-person storytelling with expert knowledge. I value Jaclyn’s words because they always reflect careful thought — whether in this book or on her ADHD Homestead blog. She is a first-rate learner and a teacher. I encourage you to reap the benefits of her hard-won wisdom."
-- Gina Pera, adult ADHD educator and award-winning author of Is It You, Me, or Adult ADD?

My favorite thing about Jaclyn is her ability to articulate the frustrations of life with ADHD. I always refer people to her website and now when someone asks about organization, I will direct them to this book. In Order from Chaos Jaclyn takes a very challenging topic and makes it accessible for those of us who struggle with executive functioning.
-- Liz Lewis, The ADHD Enclave

"Order from Chaos feels like sitting down with a good friend, an honest friend, who is a little further down the road of learning how to tackle and subdue the daily chaos of living with ADHD. If there were an ADHD self-help book group, I’d nominate this book to be at the top of the reading list."
-- Kathleen Nadeau, Ph.D., internationally recognized authority on ADHD and co-author of ADD-Friendly Ways to Organize Your Life

"One of the best things about this book is that it takes concepts from a variety of organisational systems and weaves them together in a way that is wholly clear-eyed about how you can and do manage yourself already. It's not asking you to transform yourself into an organising superhero (whew) but rather to understand how you and your household function, and then to design working systems around that. It is a kind and sensible philosophy."
-- reader review (excerpt)

"I've taken away a whole new set of organizational tools; some of which I have heard before but never really saw how they could work in a real life setting, some totally new. More importantly, I've come away with several revelations about how / why I have never been able to get organized in certain ways and several fresh alternatives to try."
