New Book: "You're Not Doing It Right" by Ellen Patnaude
NEW BOOK RELEASE by Ellen E. Patnaude from Publish Your Purpose.
In "You're Not Doing It Right," Ellen Patnaude bravely opens the door to the haunting reality of Lewy body dementia (LBD) and unravels its profound impact on families. One of the most common types of dementia after Alzheimer's disease, LBD is marked by fluctuations in cognition, hallucinations, and motor symptoms.
Through heartfelt storytelling, Patnaude recounts her challenges in addressing the disturbing shifts in her mother's behavior and managing their long-standing, emotionally charged relationship. The pages unfold with raw honesty, detailing the struggles that ensue when a family is faced with a progressive, life-altering diagnosis. In contrast to the 'long goodbye' of Alzheimer's disease, LBD plunges Patnaude and her family into a roller coaster ride from hell.
Patnaude offers invaluable insights and lessons learned in the throes of this heartbreaking journey. With unwavering candor, she reflects on what might have made a difference for herself and her family members and shares the resources that may help other struggling families. She acknowledges the commonality of denial and the universal resistance to accepting a devastating diagnosis, especially when glimpses of normalcy persist. The relentless challenges of caring for someone with any type of dementia often lead to heightened stress, exhaustion, and severe emotional strain on caregivers. In this exploration of love, loss, and resilience, Patnaude extends a compassionate hand to those grappling with similar circumstances, offering solace and understanding within the pages of this deeply moving narrative.

New Book: The SAFE Leader by Mark McBride-Wright
NEW BOOK RELEASE by Mark McBride-Wright from Publish Your Purpose.
The engineering industry underpins everything that we encounter daily and spans across a wide range of sectors including technology, manufacturing, construction, oil and gas, shipping, healthcare, renewable energy, and more. Yet despite its importance in our lives, fewer people than ever are studying in the fields of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). The engineering profession not only suffers from a shortage of skilled and qualified workers but an ongoing mental health crisis, high rates of suicide, and stereotypical masculine norms that serve to create an unsafe, non-inclusive workplace. In short: in a world that is becoming more globalised every day, engineering is operating in an outdated mode and urgently needs an upgrade to meet the challenges of tomorrow and today.
In this insightful and sensitive book, safety engineer Mark McBride-Wright explores how the principles and practices of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) can close the engineering skills gap we face while creating a physically and psychologically safe workplace that fosters innovation and inclusive design. While acknowledging the challenges of achieving equity in the male-dominated fields of engineering and technology, why this matters for health and safety, and what it really takes to lead a cultural change, Mark provides a framework for implementing a holistic and robust DEI strategy that ultimately empowers and benefits everyone in your organisation.
Becoming a SAFE Leader will transform the way you lead in all areas of your life.
As an extension of Mark's work as the founder of EqualEngineers, a firm committed to engineering inclusive cultures that attract, develop, and retain top talent, this book demonstrates that success in embedding DEI depends on strong leadership and comprehensive training, and that this approach leads to improved team dynamics, increased financial returns, higher producti

New Book: Mine the Gaps by Steve Clarke
NEW BOOK RELEASE by Steve Clarke from Publish Your Purpose
In today's dynamic and high-stakes business landscape, companies are in continual pursuit of strategies to boost productivity, curtail wasteful efforts, and achieve greater effectiveness, efficiency, and profitability. Teams are constantly under scrutiny of performance metrics and systems meant to underpin objectives to support company goals. Anticipated challenges stemming from exponential growth and unforeseen disruptions such as a global pandemic put strain on even the most robust and seemingly well working systems, exposing flawed systems and growth opportunities for all, supply chains included.
What should you do when your organization is on the verge of outgrowing its processes and capabilities? What can you do when band-aids holding supply chain systems in place are losing their stronghold? And, more importantly, how can you proactively prevent or mitigate supply chain issues?
In Mine the Gaps, Steve Clarke, an experienced professional in the field of life science supply chain operations, shares invaluable insights into his tried-and-true methodology to prevent common supply chain issues with effective process design and execution. Drawing from years of hands-on experience, Clarke understands that when things feel chaotic and out of control, it's essential to focus on what is within your span of control. And one of the most powerful tools at your disposal is a well-defined framework for identifying gaps and bridging them, transforming your business operations, supply chain processes, and business outcomes along the way.
Too often businesses waste time on scorecards, dashboards, and analytics that provide them with little or no insight. Clarke reveals how to leverage readily available data that will result in quick wins and select relevant metrics that are actionable and drive better business decisions.

New Book: We Are Ukraine by Maidan United
NEW BOOK RELEASE by Maidan United from Publish Your Purpose
Russia’s brutal invasion of Ukraine has taken a heavy toll on its most vulnerable, innocent victims, the children. Fifty-five youngsters and youths ages 4 through 17 were asked to answer one of two questions: what this war means to them and what Ukrainian culture means to them. “We are Ukraine” is a compilation of their brave and poignant responses, accompanied by artwork that speaks volumes about the suffering and terrible impact of war on children’s minds and hearts.
Armed conflict disrupts and destroys the basic necessities of life we often take for granted: food, water, electricity, health care, schools, and shelter. Children pay a dreadful price when caught in the crossfire of war, enduring forced separation from family members, loss of friends and loved ones, displacement, and the trauma of being exposed to terrifying violence and destruction. The children in this book express their fears and wistful hopes for the war to end, and they are also fiercely proud of their country and its traditions. The message is simple but profound: children deserve to live. It is time to end the scourge of war and its grave violations against children and all of humankind.

Maidan works with contacts and organizations in and around Ukraine to help them access medical equipment and supplies. All board members and supporters are volunteers and their mission today is the same as it was in 2014—to help Ukrainians who are directly and indirectly affec

New Book: Unfinished Business by Amy C. Yip
NEW BOOK RELEASE by Amy C. Yip from Publish Your Purpose
If you've ever yearned for your parents' approval, felt the weight of their high expectations, or experienced the burden of unspoken obligations to care for them as they age, you're not alone.
Too often, we hesitate to ask our parents about their lives, held back by mistaken beliefs or past conflicts. With warmth, wit, and vulnerability Amy Yip explores the profound influence her parents had on her life and offers you a roadmap to navigate conversations with your own parents.
In Unfinished Business, Amy takes us on a heartfelt journey from detachment to deep connection with her own parents as she delves into the stories she holds about them; from "My success will never be good enough for my parents" to "I must be mentally tough and never ask for help"and everything in between. She illuminates the power of conversation as she invites us to see the world through her and your parents' eyes. By engaging in meaningful dialogues and taking the time to truly understand their experiences and struggles, we discover that our parents are not just figures from our past, but complex individuals with their own hopes, dreams, and fears.
Each chapter provides a framework of self-reflective prompts, practical tips, and thought-provoking questions to ask your parents, empowering you to embark on your own journey of connection. Because, regardless of the generation we belong to, we all long to be heard and understood. And that includes our parents.
Join Amy on this poignant exploration of family, identity, and the power of conversation. It's time to embrace the unfinished business, unravel the untold stories, and forge a deeper bond with the ones who shaped us.
This is not and was never going to be easy. But it can get easier.

"Gay with God" by Midge Noble from Publish Your Purpose
Born in the rural south in the late 1950’s, Midge Noble was raised in a household with strict parents and fundamentalist religious beliefs. Attending parties or movies was not allowed. Her paternal grandfather, Paw Paw, a fire and brimstone Advent Christian preacher, believed the Bible was the literal word of God and condemned homosexuals to hell. As a teen, Noble felt a calling for missionary work but grew up with a conflicted view of God and the Church. She always felt that somehow she was different, but couldn’t quite put her finger on why.
In this frank and heartfelt memoir, Noble recounts her childhood years and her struggles as a young adult with her faith and true identity. Doubting herself and her choices, her inner turmoil manifested itself as bulimia and anorexia, and denial and harsh judgment of her feelings. She didn’t come out to herself as gay until she was thirty years old.
Noble’s poignant journey to reclaim her Christian faith shows that a relationship with the God of your understanding is possible, no matter what you’ve been taught to the contrary. Honesty and learning to trust your inner guidance are critical for healthy emotional and social development. For anyone questioning how they can reconcile their faith and their sexual identity, Noble’s inspiring book is a light to shine the way.
