Story
When Christine Platt set out on her journey to live with less, she never intended to become The Afrominimalist. She just wanted to tame the chaos in her closet! But after struggling with the austerity and whiteness of mainstream minimalism, Christine realized why minimalism often seems unattainable for so many: the emphasis on all-white, barren aesthetics distracts from the practice of living with intention. And so, she decided to do things her way by curating a life of less influenced by the African diaspora.

Thanks so much for sharing such wise and poignant words for the African diaspora. This book was so inspirational for me as I begin my journey to living more fully with less. I will share this book with friends and family.

Story
How did Fidel Castro fool the CIA for a generation? Why did Neville Chamberlain think he could trust Adolf Hitler? Why are campus sexual assaults on the rise? Do television sitcoms teach us something about the way we relate to each other that isn't true? While tackling these questions, Malcolm Gladwell was not solely writing a book for the page. He was also producing for the ear. In the audiobook version of Talking to Strangers, you’ll hear the voices of people he interviewed - scientists, criminologists, military psychologists.

New perspectives

More insight from my favorite author. Malcolm Gladwell has a unique way of sharing new ways of considering the most basic human interactions. I will approach and talk to strangers in a different way and not make assumptions.
Great read along with the musical interludes!!

Story
It's pernicious...it's diabolical...it creeps into every moment of our lives. It influences our relationships, impacts our physical body, works its way into our conversations, sparks non-nourishing behaviors, and forces us to do things we'd never want to do. It's infectious; it's relentless.... It's stress! We all know it. We all experience it. It's the human condition - but through this audiobook, you will learn to transcend it.

Story
When it comes to health, there is one criminally overlooked element: sleep. Good sleep helps you shed fat for good, stave off disease, stay productive, and improve virtually every function of your mind and body. That's what Shawn Stevenson learned when a degenerative bone disease crushed his dream of becoming a professional athlete. Like many of us, he gave up on his health and his body...until he decided there must be a better way.

Sleep gives life
Reviewed: 03-16-17
I always knew sleeping was important and have made it a priority throughout my life to get 8 hours. However, this book paints a beautifully complete picture of the why, what, how and when of the art of "good sleeping". I highly recommend this book to everyone!!! Bravo!!!
