Publisher's summary
I had just been featured in the Wall Street Journal for my journey to becoming a Fellow of the Society of Actuaries. Even more so, I was now a Black woman Fellow Actuary. People from around the globe reached out to congratulate me, and to let me know that my story had inspired them. I was humbled, but I felt that few knew how much more of my journey needed to be shared.
My whole personal story could eventually inspire many more, especially those who looked like me and came from my same basic roots. My path to becoming a Fellow Actuary would have never even started, had I not been shown grace at a time when I nearly self-destructed. I was a rebellious youth who ended up being arrested by the police, but I was given a chance to redeem myself, so that one day I could inspire youth living in neighborhoods like the ones in which I grew up.
The level I had achieved as a Black Fellow Actuary was not something commonly seen among those of us who grew up in Air-Bel, on the South Side of Chicago, or in L’abbaye.

Story
In the ever more competitive race to secure the best possible future, today’s students face unprecedented pressure to succeed. They jam-pack their schedules with AP classes, fill every waking hour with resume-padding activities, and even sabotage relationships with friends to “get ahead.” Family incomes and schedules are stretched to the breaking point by tutoring fees and athletic schedules. Yet this drive to optimize performance has only resulted in skyrocketing rates of anxiety, depression, and even self-harm in America’s highest achieving schools.

There are breaking points in all our lives when we realize that the way things have been done before just don’t work for us anymore, be it the way we approach our relationships, our belief systems, our work, our education, even our rest. For activist, philanthropist, and CEO Rachel E. Cargle, reimagining—the act of creating in our minds that which does not exist but that we believe can and should—has been a lifelong process. Reimagining served as the most powerful catalyst for Cargle’s personal transformation from a small-town Christian wife to an incisive queer feminist voice of a generation.

Problems arise when our perception of the dream becomes clouded with negativity, drama, and judgment (of ourselves and others), because it's in these moments of suffering that we have forgotten that we are the architects of our own reality and we have the power to change our dream if we choose.

The book of Enoch was thought to be lost for over 2,000 years until, in 1773, a traveller brought three copies back from Ethiopia. Whether or not this ancient book was actually authored by Enoch, the father of Methuselah and great-grandfather of Noah, is an ongoing debate among historians and theologians. But all recognise the book of Enoch as one of the most important apocalyptic works outside of the Bible.

Widely hailed as a spiritual classic, this inspirational and unfailingly powerful story reveals the life and visions of the Lakota healer Nicholas Black Elk (1863–1950) and the tragic history of his Sioux people during the epic closing decades of the Old West.
