From Failure to Finisher, from Once-a-Bartender to Now-a-Board-Member, Stacy's story of triumph and transformation is one that will resonate with anyone who has ever felt like they were at Rock Bottom. In 2009, Stacy was a three-time divorced, three-time college dropout, single mom to a son with autism and a daughter living out-of-state with her dad. On government assistance and barely able to pay bills, Stacy's world was falling apart around her. That same year, she ran her first marathon and the trajectory of her entire life changed the instant she crossed the finish line.Determined to turn her life around, Stacy enrolled in college for a fourth time. The more she learned about the world around her, the more she turned inward to reflect on the life she had lived. For the first time in decades, she unearthed the memories she had long ago buried- of the abuse by her father, the loss of her religion, the baby she had placed for adoption- and the enormous weight of shame she had carried through the years. Slowly, Stacy started opening up about her past. What she expected to find was judgment and isolation; what she actually found was acceptance and connection.Fueled by a newfound confidence, Stacy began speaking about her hardships at events around the country and soon discovered no matter where she went, there was always ALWAYS someone who told her, "Me, too." Her company, See Stacy Speak LLC, was born. Her platform was based on teaching people that the very things that hold them back- fear, shame, insecurity- are the very things that can be used to fuel them.A self-proclaimed Ambassador of Badassery, Stacy's motto is, "I see the Badass in YOU, and I help you see it, too." "The Things We Don't Talk About" is a humorous and heartfelt story of hardships, healing, and hope. Sassy, sweet, and a little sarcastic, Stacy courageously shares her own shortcomings as proof that through pain there is purpose and through our weaknesses we can become warriors. This book will make you laugh and make you cry, and leave you inspired to share your own story, too.
Blindfolds and Pitchforks: Don't Be a Child Molester's Flying Monkey

Child sexual abuse is a major health epidemic in the world, with one in four girls and one in five boys becoming victims of sexual assault before turning 18. One of the most common and disturbing aspects of this crime is that, if victims do find the courage to disclose their abuse, they are often blamed, shamed, shunned and punished for telling. It's time to start standing behind victims of this crime and making sure that child molesters face the punishments that fit this heinous crime. People like to believe that child sexual abuse does not affect them personally or that they do not know any victims or perpetrators. It feels safe to believe that they would detect someone capable of molesting and raping children. But the fact is, approximately 90% of victims are abused by somebody known and trusted by or within the family. Shattering the myths about these crimes and speaking out is the key to changing the daunting statistics surrounding child sexual abuse.Blindfolds and Pitchforks details the story of my emotionally abusive partner who molested my daughter over a period of years and the subsequent re-victimization that we experienced as a result of turning him in. Our story is not rare; it is the norm.
This project unveils one of my deepest scars, the scare of not having a physical father fighter. I write this in honor and representation of children and families that have suffered the damages of an absent father. By urging people to reflect on history and its impact on generations, and preaching the beauty and evil sides of love, they plunged into hot-selling territory these days. Her new series on parenting in MISSING FATHERS is already at the forefront of the debate on the pertinent question of how many children are vulnerable and lack family love. As well as infusing the history of Ghana from the early 60's to the late 80's and up to the present day, the decisions made by the presidents of Ghana, through Nigeria to other parts of the world that have created hardships for some of our children. Stacy Amewoyi is a Ghanaian-born entrepreneur, author and a philanthropist. She is based the United States of America. She grew up as an orphan, but through her perseverance and deep faith in God, she established herself as a change agent in her community.

That You May Believe is a study of the book of John. You will learn Hebrew and Greek words as you study the Son of God, Jesus Christ. When you read the statements from Jesus concerning "I am," the Word of God will open to reveal Who Jesus is today. Here is an excerpt from chapter 9: The phrase ego eimi is comprised of a Greek pronoun (ego) and verb (eimi). When these words are placed together they form the beginning of Christ's seven statements in the book of John, "I AM". Make The Book of John your personal study, or use the book in a classroom or homeschooling setting. That You May Believe is perfect for a one-on-one study with a new Christian, or perhaps a neighbor who does not know our saviour as Lord.

What does friendship have to do with racial difference, settler colonialism and post-apartheid South Africa? While histories of apartheid and colonialism in South Africa have often focused on the ideologies of segregation and white supremacy, Ties that Bind explores how the intimacies of friendship create vital spaces for practices of power and resistance. Combining interviews, history poetry, visual arts, memoir and academic essay, the collection keeps alive the promise of friendship and its possibilities while investigating how affective relations are essential to the social reproduction of power. From the intimacy of personal relationships to the organising ideology of liberal colonial governance, the contributors explore the intersection of race and friendship from a kaleidoscope of viewpoints and scales. Insisting on a timeline that originates in settler colonialism, Ties that Bind uncovers the implication of anti-Blackness within nonracialism, and powerfully challenges a simple reading of the Mandela moment and the rainbow nation. In the wake of countrywide student protests calling for decolonization of the university, and reignited debates around racial inequality, this timely volume insists that the history of South African politics has always already been about friendship.Written in an accessible and engaging style, Ties that Bind will interest a wide audience of scholars, students, and activists, as well as general readers curious about contemporary South African debates around race and intimacy.
Meldrick, the Master of Death, has gathered to him four crowns - the means by which he will be able to rule the world as the lands each crown belongs to slowly falls into darkness without its power source.

In the tropical paradise known as Somerton Island, young Kale Dillans finds himself faced with an immense task, as the title of the Chosen One Leader is given to him.

With the help of their new friends, Merlin the Magician, Cindy, and Viviane "Lady of the Lake", Elison realizes she isn't the last of her kind. The Sister of Death wants revenge against them for "murdering" her brother, and will do absolutely anything to get what she wants. In order to defeat this new threat, Elison might have to defeat her long-lost sister as well.
