Life Will Be the Death of Me: . . . and you too! is a thrillingly honest, insightful, and deeply, darkly funny memoir by Chelsea Handler.

In a haze of vape smoke on a rare windy night in L.A. in the fall of 2016, Chelsea daydreams about what life will be like with a woman in the White House. And then Donald Trump happens. In a torpor of despair, she decides that she's had enough of the privileged bubble she's lived in—a bubble within a bubble—and that it's time to make some changes, both in her personal life and in the world at large.

At home, she embarks on a year of self-sufficiency—learning how to work the remote, how to pick up dog shit, where to find the toaster. She meets her match in an earnest, brainy psychiatrist and enters into therapy, prepared to do the heavy lifting required to look within and make sense of a childhood marked by love and loss and to figure out why people are afraid of her.

She becomes politically active—finding her voice as an advocate for change, having difficult conversations, and energizing her base. In the process, she develops a healthy fixation on Special Counsel Robert Mueller and, through unflinching self-reflection and psychological excavation, unearths some glittering truths that light up the road ahead.

How traumatic events can break our vital connections—and how to restore love, wholeness, and resiliency in your life.

From our earliest years, we develop an attachment style that follows us throughout life, replaying in our daily emotional landscape, our relationships, and how we feel about ourselves. In the wake of a traumatic event—such as a car accident, severe illness, loss of a loved one, or experience of abuse—that attachment style can deeply influence what happens next.

In The Power of Attachment, Dr. Diane Poole Heller, a pioneer in attachment theory and trauma resolution, shows how overwhelming experiences can disrupt our most important connections—within ourselves, with the physical world around us, and with others.

The good news is that we can restore and reconnect at all levels, regardless of our past. Here, you’ll learn key insights and practices to help you:

• Restore the broken connections caused by trauma
• Get embodied and grounded in your body
• Integrate the parts of yourself that feel wounded and fragmented
• Emerge from grief, fear, and powerlessness to regain strength, joy, and resiliency
• Reclaim access to your inner resources and spiritual nature

"We are fundamentally designed to heal," teaches Dr. Heller. "Even if our childhood is less than ideal, our secure attachment system is biologically programmed in us, and our job is to simply find out what’s interfering with it—and learn what we can do to make those secure tendencies more dominant."

With expertise drawn from Dr. Heller’s research, clinical work, and training programs, this book invites you to begin that journey back to wholeness.

Childless Living offers an insightful exploration into the self-fulfilling lives of individuals who, by chance or choice, do not have children. This enlightening book delves into the myriad life choices people make regarding parenthood and unveils alternate ways to find purpose in life.

Based on a comprehensive global survey and over 50 in-depth interviews with childless and childfree individuals aged 19 to 91 from diverse cultures and backgrounds, the book provides readers with a broader context to understand the growing trend of leading a self-fulfilling, childless life.

In many countries, choosing not to have children is becoming more common, and this book discusses topics often left unspoken—how people without children spend their time and money, and most importantly, how they find purpose and fulfillment in their lives.

From exhilarating to painful stories, these narratives reveal that choosing not to start a family is a valid and fulfilling path.

This book is a must-read for anyone who has not taken the path of parenthood, those with close family or friends leading self-directed lives without offspring, and anyone contemplating this essential life choice. It celebrates both the joys of parenting and the bravery of those following the lesser-known path of non-parenting.
