Learn how to reframe your anxiety and overcome self-doubt with this accessible guide from clinical psychologist Dr Michaela Dunbar, founder of @myeasytherapyWe all experience anxiety at certain points throughout our lives, some of us more often and more intensely than others. It's an emotion, a chemical reaction, and a fundamental part of being human. It can help you to stay alert and focused, spur you to action, and motivate you to solve problems. But left unchecked, it can have the opposite effect, holding you back and preventing you from living the life you want. You are not alone in this. Dr Michaela Dunbar, qualified clinical psychologist and founder of Instagram @myeasytherapy, has spent years helping ambitious women master their anxiety and overcome self-doubt, so they can take unapologetic action to unlock their potential and find happiness and success. Through one-to-one coaching and therapy sessions and engaging with thousands of women through her online courses, Michaela has identified the seven key ways high-functioning anxiety can manifest in our lives, from people pleasing to imposter syndrome, overwhelm to perfectionism, and shows us how to transform negative thoughts and difficult emotions into positive action. You've Got This will give you the insight and tools to reframe how you view your anxiety and understand how to manage your thoughts and emotions so they no longer interfere with your relationships, your career or quality of life. Learn how to overcome self-doubt, set boundaries, avoid burnout, and free yourself from the traps of overthinking to confidently step into a life you love.

Brought to you by Penguin. By the time Sara Davies left university, she was running a business with a half million pound turnover from her student bedroom. When she became the youngest of BBC 1's iconic Dragons, that turnover was GBP25 million. Today, she is one of Britain's biggest business names. Now, in a memoir as full of warmth, wit and wisdom as she is, Sara shares what it took to get there - from manning factories overnight with her mam and dad to hitting the trade shows of Las Vegas alone, armed with little more than ambition and a passion for crafts. What does she look for in a business investment? Where does she find time to enjoy family life while running an empire? What did lockdown change about the way she ran her company? And which is the bigger buzz - witnessing your latest product sell out as you broadcast live to 96 American homes, or dancing the cha cha cha as one of Strictly Come Dancing's brightest stars while your family cheer you on?Sara says that 'good storytelling is the key to making sales'. In We Can All Make It she proves just what a great storyteller she is. (c) Sara Davies 2022 (P) Penguin Audio 2022

The incredible new novel from international bestseller John Grisham.

From one of America's iconic writers, a portrait of a marriage and a life - in good times and bad - that will speak to anyone who has ever loved a husband or wife or child. A stunning book of electric honesty and passion.Several days before Christmas 2003, John Gregory Dunne and Joan Didion saw their only daughter, Quintana, fall ill. At first they thought it was flu, then pneumonia, then complete sceptic shock. She was put into an induced coma and placed on life support. Days later - the night before New Year's Eve -the Dunnes were just sitting down to dinner after visiting the hospital when John suffered a massive and fatal coronary. In a second, this close, symbiotic partnership of 40 years was over. Four weeks later, their daughter pulled through. Two months after that, arriving at LA airport, she collapsed and underwent six hours of brain surgery at UCLA Medical Centre to relieve a massive hematoma.This powerful book is Didion's 'attempt to make sense of the weeks and then months that cut loose any fixed idea I ever had about death, about illness ... about marriage and children and memory ... about the shallowness of sanity, about life itself'. The result is an exploration of an intensely personal yet universal experience: a portrait of a marriage, and a life, in good times and bad.
