Men are not the enemy, and masculinity, contrary to what much of popular culture would have you believe, is the solution to what plagues individuals, families, and society as a whole. In The Masculinity Manifesto, author and podcaster Ryan Michler focuses on how a man can wield his power and lead others well with influence, credibility, and authority. Ryan refuses to accept the gradual and intentional decay of masculinity, instead he chooses to tackle the questions others are afraid to address.

The Organic Masculine presents a journey to redefine masculinity in wholeness. This book delves into the essence of what it means to be a man today, examining the complexities of this question within a developmental framework.

Focusing on the Magician archetype, the first volume in this four-part series guides listeners to find their inner Magicians to walk the path of initiation.

La subalternità in cui le donne sono costrette a vivere nei paesi islamici è purtroppo nota anche nel nostro mondo occidentale, in cui pure non manca di riverberare i suoi effetti nefasti e dai risvolti addirittura criminogeni (il caso di Hina è solo l'episodio più recente di una lunga e triste serie). Meno noto è il fatto che dalla fine del secolo scorso molte donne musulmane hanno cominciato a rivendicare, sia in Oriente sia in Occidente, libertà e diritti. Il fenomeno è stato definito "femminismo islamico".

They have led us into a very boring dead end. Once those fictionalized stereotypes are out of the way - whether they're things that make you gag or things you think look pretty fun - Christians can focus on real women. What did God make real women for?

Fears. Faults. Failures. Frailties. Every woman at some point wonders, "Do I have to get past all my weaknesses before God can use me?" Wendy Pope is happy to tell listeners: No! You don’t have to overcome, correct, rise above, or get strong before you are qualified to be part of God’s plan. He can use you right now. You are a worthwhile possibility. In Hidden Potential, listeners see that they can be faithful, even in fear; included in God’s plans, even in weaknesses; worth something, even in failure; and valuable, even in pain.

Minimalism is not just a series of actions but also a total mind-set shift. It recognises that modern-day abundance has not increased our level of happiness - in fact we are less happy than generations before despite having more - and it argues that embracing less will allow us to live more fully. This handbook gives us the tools to achieve this complete life-changing mental shift, teaching us how to search for items and thoughts that add value to our lives and how to get rid of nonessential physical and mental clutter.
