About this deal

It started well, and the author shared her traumatic experience with her parents. She has been through a lot since childhood, and I admire that she overcame all those things and became more alive and healthy. This book is a great addition to bookshelves, whether in the classroom, library, or in a kid's bedroom. I loved that she brought to her readers’ attention that even after writing Lilies, she has had moments where she has faltered. I love the realness that she shows in these moments, rather than let her readers believe that she leads a perfect life because of her practices as many self-help authors seem to do. Most people are afraid of what others might think or say if they showed up as their true authentic selves. Especially in a business or professional context. That’s why too many of us are terrified of sharing our story authentically in public and struggle to make a lasting impact when introducing ourselves.

I just wish I could see the Glow in the Dark poster (and in real life or else it wouldn't work of course). From helping you land bigger media opportunities, generate more leads for your business or attract top talent, Glow in the Dark is a refreshingly practical and thought provoking book on why everyone has a powerful story worth telling, and how owning and sharing your story can have a transformative impact on your life and business beyond your wildest imagination. Overall, this book is a miss for me. However, I truly believe I am not the right person for this book, and I hope it will reach the correct audience widely. Thanks to his creative video CV going viral, Mark previously served as Country Manager at the Movember Foundation, where he helped raise €2.8 million for men’s health and inspired 110,000 fundraisers to take part, winning multiple awards along the way. The chapters I like the most are “Make Decisions for Future You” and “The Best Way to Build a Habit”.Mark’s work has appeared in Forbes, The Wall Street Journal, The Guardian, The Sunday Telegraph, Metro and his TEDx talk has been watched over a million times and was listed as the #1 TED talk on entrepreneurship to watch by Steven Bartlett (host of the Diary of a CEO podcast and a Dragon on Dragon’s Den). note: this book is still incredible popular, it’s just an underrated gem compared to the other two. As Tara explains, healing is not a linear process and you can’t hustle your way through life. But, if you are: Mark Leruste ( @markleruste) is on a mission to help one million entrepreneurs and business leaders impact the world with their story.

What I think I like the most about the Bluey books is the way their messages aren’t necessarily subtle, but they are never preachy or judgmental in tone. The narratives are gentle, fun-loving and warm. Promoting good old-fashioned family fun, in a modern environment. Tara brings acceptance, compassion, joy, and sometimes even laughter to some of the most difficult subjects of life. I love the way that she speaks to her reader as if you are her best friend and she is sitting in the room with you, holding your hand and helping you cope with whatever it is you may be going through. The tour's plot was Kanye crashing onto a planet and exploring it, during which he even encounters a monster built by Jim Henson's workshop.Her real-life experiences feel so raw, and she is so vulnerable in sharing them before elaborating on points related to the story. Many topics were covered that I think many people could relate to. I say theories because that's really what much of our current knowledge of space is. The age of the sun, how the planets were created, etc...we really do not know. But, if one's beliefs don't hold to "billions of years" don't let that stop you from enjoying this book alongside your students or child. Discussing various current ideas within science is exactly what growing minds need! There's no telling what may be learned within the scientific community during their lifetime. Feed the child's mind and curiosities now to broaden their opportunities later.

When I was reading this book, I was actively comparing it to the show itself because I thought it would help me be able to review this book even better. I just found out today that they adapted the episodes to read to children before bed. Now everything I say, they feel like it's because I've grown crazy because of the situations I've been through - my mom passing other relationships that I got out of. It's not that I've gone crazy semi; I just don't feel like I have anything to lose, so I might as well express exactly what I feel." During the story, Bluey stumbles upon her father laying on the floor. Her mom tells her that Bandit is dreaming about playing touch football like he used to before the kids were born and having to invest a lot of time into them during the vital stages of development. After watching her father for a moment, Bluey has an epiphany of being able to dream about being a fruit bat while she's asleep--meaning she can get what she wants and her parents can get her to sleep as well. I was given a free, digital ARC of this book by NetGalley. All thoughts expressed here are my own.]

The elaboration of her experience before getting to the main point was so long. It could be cut off a lot with good editing. The book's format is also not my liking for a self-help book. I'm glad photo evidence exists of this tour, mostly because I did not catch it. Hearing Kanye West and Spike Jonez talk about, I get some sense of it, while a great deal is left the imagination. I found it most valuable to read the book and then talk to a friend who had been able to catch the tour. Even still, the book itself is no great work.
