Faith and Hope in Chronic Illness: A Journey Through Struggles, Understanding, and Spiritual Support for Young People Facing Health Challenges and Their Loved Ones. Discover Comfort, Connection, and God's Promises in the Midst of Pain and Uncertainty.

This book offers faith-based encouragement for those grappling with chronic illness and provides insights for their loved ones. Drawing from my personal battle with Lyme disease, I share my ongoing journey through the valley of sickness, emphasizing that I am not yet on the other side. This narrative is not limited to Lyme; it resonates with anyone facing health challenges. Readers will find solace in knowing they are seen and understood, perhaps for the first time. Chronic illness often leaves individuals feeling isolated and misunderstood, lacking the support they need physically, emotionally, and spiritually. My goal is to change that narrative.

I explore the various stages of illness, from the waiting period and receiving a diagnosis to the relentless fight for healing. Family members will learn how to best support their loved ones at each stage, fostering connection and understanding. Through scripture and biblical stories, I relate God's promises to our struggles, highlighting that His assurance is not the removal of pain but the promise of His presence. This book serves as a hand to hold, a reminder that no one is alone in this battle.

I aim to shed light on the often-invisible struggles of chronic illness, providing comfort and connection for those who feel lost. Together, we can navigate the complexities of faith and health, finding hope amidst uncertainty. Join me on this journey of understanding, support, and spiritual growth.

Reframing Psychosis Spectrum Experiences: A Collaborative Workbook for Hearing Voices bridges lived experience and clinical understanding to offer an innovative approach to working with voice-hearing and related experiences.

Grounded in the values of the International Hearing Voices Movement and informed by trauma-informed, recovery-oriented principles, this experiential guide invites readers to move beyond symptom-focused frameworks toward curiosity, connection, and meaning-making. The workbook explores a wide range of voice-hearing experiences-positive, neutral, and distressing-and provides an array of reflective prompts and practical strategies to support understanding and self-determination.

Designed for flexibility, it can be used with a clinician, peer specialist, family member, or trusted other, or independently as a reflective tool. Chapters integrate lived experience approaches with clinical practice, covering topics such as voice dialogue, relational safety, creative coping strategies, and family support. Readers will also find innovative approaches for working with command voices and transforming challenging relationships with voices into opportunities for understanding and empowerment. Each section encourages exploration of personal meaning and collaborative ways of working with voices, rather than against them.

Written in accessible language and grounded in years of collaboration between a peer specialist who hears voices and a clinical psychologist, Reframing Psychosis Spectrum Experiences offers a compassionate framework for learning, reflection, and change-whether in therapy, education, or everyday life.

The accompanying online course for clinicians, supporters, and voice-hearers, Reframing Psychosis Spectrum Experiences provides learners with immersive simulations drawing from real-life voice hearing experiences to provide insight into the diversity of these experiences.

While her closest friend faces breast cancer, she is strengthened by the humorous stories and endearing wisdom of Aunt Pearl, who refers to breasts as dinners. Both she and her friend find that self-esteem comes from more than appearance and that some of the best sermons come from places other than church.

Set in 1990 Western North Carolina, this is a story of womanhood, sisterhood, and reclaiming one's voice.

Inspired by true events, it is a story that will linger in your heart long after the final page.

Turn your inner critic into your startup's unfair advantage.

Every founder wrestles with the same hidden battle: comparison, contradiction, and the fear that this might be the time they blow it.

Adam Crawshaw has lived that loop--the anxiety, the constant recalibration, the quiet dread between milestones. The Doubt Loop is the manual he wishes he had then: a brutally clear field guide for founders who can't afford to self-destruct.

Equal parts memoir and operator playbook, The Doubt Loop reframes hesitation as data--something to decode, not drown in. With raw stories, sharp frameworks, and zero fluff, Crawshaw breaks down how to spot when doubt is warning versus when it's waste.

It's not a pep talk. It's a system for turning your second thoughts into first principles--and for leading with steadier judgment when everything feels uncertain.

One in six American women will be the victim of sexual assault in her lifetime.

This is one woman's story-and a roadmap for healing.

When Julie Weil was violently abducted and raped in front of her young children in 2002, her world imploded in a single afternoon. For four years, she endured not only a legal gauntlet that would have broken most families but the emotional aftershocks of trauma that rippled through every part of her home. When her attacker received seven life sentences for the crimes against her family, Julie believed her battle was finally over.

It was only beginning.

The verdict did not end the story.

As she fought to heal, Julie uncovered a troubling reality. Evidence sat untested. Survivors were retraumatized by broken procedures. Systems meant to protect were often failing the very people they were designed to serve.

What began as one woman's pursuit of justice grew into a mission far beyond her own case. Over the next two decades, she worked alongside law enforcement, sexual assault nurse examiners, forensic professionals, and legislators to improve evidence testing, strengthen survivor-centered response, and bring meaningful reform to communities in the United States and abroad.

But this story is about more than reform.

It is about loss and rebuilding. It is about the devastating aftermath of trauma, the nightmares, the PTSD, the way violence reshapes entire families. It is about faith tested and strengthened. It is about the courage to speak truth and walk the long road toward accountability so that others may not have to walk it alone.

A memoir of resilience, reform, and the ripple effect of one voice refusing to be silent.

Julie Weil is a survivor advocate, international speaker, and founder of the Not Just Me Foundation. Following her assault in 2002, she helped advance rape kit reform legislation at the state and federal levels, contributed to the passage of the SAFER Act, and worked alongside forensic professionals and lawmakers to strengthen survivor-centered response in the United States and abroad. She has been featured on national media outlets, including CNN and C-SPAN, and was honored with the Carrie Morgan Whitcomb Award for her leadership in forensic reform.
