Some people color inside the lines. Others—like Sara Lobkovich—ditch the coloring book altogether and make their own rules. A proud introvert, ADHDer, and change-maker, Sara turned years of navigating life's twists into two books designed to help others do the same. In Part 1, we'll hear how she went from feeling like an outsider to building a thriving career by embracing what makes her different. And in Part 2, we'll break down her books—what's inside, who they're for, and why they actually work.Key Highlights of Our Interview:A Love Letter To Square Pegs Who Don't Fit In"This book is a love letter to me earlier in my career.

How much meaning is lost when you are reading a translation?Today is a special episode where I am going over my findings from reading 'O Alquimista' in the original Portuguese and it's English translation side by side. I found that although the grammar prompt some differences the biggest effect was stylistic choices by the translator. This includes minor things like cutting out words/sentences to larger alterations such as removing potentially 'racist' remarks. Would love to hear your feedback and appreciate any support you wish to give :)The Alchemist Book Review: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5o40-BJkfLETao Te Ching Book Review: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Thoq-1gwZLoTimeline:(00:00:00) Intro(00:02:01) Direct Observations(00:17:31) Indirect Observations(00:27:34) Summary(00:30:17) Value 4 Value(00:31:55) Join Live!

Our guest, Sara Lobkovich, proudly identifies with these groups and has turned her unique perspective into a source of strength. After months of writing, Sara has crafted two books that combine her lived experiences and sharp business strategies. Her mission is clear: help others activate their inner strategist and chase ambitious goals with authenticity and clarity.

Two books take dramatically different approaches to the Christmas story. First, in Everyone This Christmas Has a Secret, reluctant detective Ernest Cunningham finds himself in the middle of another murder mystery. His ex-wife's partner has been killed and every suspect is a master of the art of deception. The book is the third installment of comedian Benjamin Stevenson's Ernest Cunningham mysteries series. In today's episode, Stevenson joins NPR's Ayesha Rascoe for a discussion that touches on the essential rules of the genre, the fun of writing to the holiday theme, and the commonalities between his comedy and writing practices. We then hear from Dolly Parton about her new picture book, Dolly Parton's Billy the Kid Comes Home for Christmas. She speaks with NPR's Michel Martin about her real-life French bulldog, the inspiration for her children's literacy program, and her annual Christmas traditions.To listen to Book of the Day sponsor-free and support NPR's book coverage, sign up for Book of the Day+ at plus.npr.org/bookofthedayLearn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy
Two books of essays consider the female experience through different stages of life. First, Kate Kennedy's One in a Millennial documents coming of age as a member of a highly-scrutinized generation. Her book explores the origins of millennial stereotypes and pop culture, but also focuses on the way that shared experiences of girlhood are often dismissed as frivolous. In today's episode, Kennedy joins NPR's Juana Summers for a conversation that touches on AOL Instant Messenger, college pre-games, and self-editing our own desires. We then hear from Jenny Slate about her new book Lifeform, a compilation of experimental essays that follow her life through five phases: Single, True Love, Pregnancy, Baby, and Ongoing. Slate joined Here & Now's Emiko Tamagawa at a live event in Boston, where the two discussed the confidence it takes to write down our ideas, fear and bravery in love, and Slate's perspective on childbirth and motherhood.To listen to Book of the Day sponsor-free and support NPR's book coverage, sign up for Book of the Day+ at plus.npr.org/bookofthedayLearn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy
Send us a textHave you been having some trouble navigating the emotional aftermath of the recent election results? Me too. We can all easily see the writing on the wall: there are definitely going to be some societal challenges coming up ahead.I learned about the election results as I watched the sun rise through airport windows. It got me thinking about my culture, my gender, and how I've come to where I am today. In this podcast, I share stories of the women in my family, and some personal experiences about resilience, self-awareness, and breaking free from societal expectations.This isn't a political rant—it's about personal and collective empowerment and how we move forward. It's about choosing love over hate, showing up for ourselves and others, and taking control of our lives. It's about financial independence, challenging gender norms, and confronting some of the unconscious biases we carry. If you've ever felt stuck or like you're navigating the same struggles that I do, this episode is for you. Let's break barriers, build each other up, and create the life we deserve—together.As promised, here is the link to the article I recently wrote, entitled "The Tale of Two Books (and How I Broke the Binding on my Unwritten Instruction Manual)."Pause and ask yourself why things are the way they are... and who told you it had to be that way. We don't need to be victims to societal norms. We are allowed to question things when they are unjust or don't make sense. We are allowed to make changes in our lives for the better.

Part Two. This episode—and the last—are for the introverts, the ADHDers, those on the autism spectrum, trauma survivors, strategy-brained square pegs, frustrated change-makers, rebelutionaries (that's rebels and revolutionaries combined), and thinker-doers. Why? Because our guest today, Sara Lobkovich, is part of these groups. And she's not holding back anymore. In fact, she's spent months writing two books that bring together her life lessons and business strategy experience to help us all wake up our inner strategist and achieve big goals—no BS. In the last episode, part 1, we looked into who Sara is, what she's been through, and how her past has shaped her purpose today. In this episode, part 2, we'll dig into the book—her why, her audience, her objectives, and her vision.

Jesus promised to bring justice, and contrary to what most believe, Heaven and Hell will not be the same experience for everyone. What we do in this life doesn't just determine when and where we go; what we do determines what it's like when we get there. What we learn from Jesus is that every day matters!

Thank you for listening over the years and helping us reach our 200th episode! To celebrate this milestone, we invited special guests to call the Book Cougars hotline and recommend two forthcoming books they can't wait for all of us to read. This idea was inspired by Ann Kingman and Michael Kindness, hosts of the podcast Books on the Nightstand, who had a segment called “Two Books We Can't Wait for You to Read.” Chris and Emily met through Books on the Nightstand; their sunset inspired our sunrise. As an homage, we were thrilled to have Ann and Michael contribute to the segment along with other guests that have been featured on the podcast over the past seven years including Amy Tector, Andrea Wang, Bianca Marais, Caroline Leavitt, Davina from BookBrowse, Fiona Davis, Hank Phillippi Ryan, Jennifer Savran Kelly, Jenna Miller, Rachel Barenbaum, Kelcey Ervick, Luanne Rice, Jung Yun, and our Mystery Man – John Valeri. We asked our author friends to shout out their new or forthcoming books. Your TBR List just might explode! #SorryNotSorry And that's not the only exciting segment in this episode.

They are: Tom Lake – Ann Patchett Hello Beautiful – Ann Napolitano Demon Copperhead – Barbara Kingsolver The Covenant of Water – Abraham Verghese Lessons in Chemistry – Bonnie Garmus The Heaven & Earth Grocery Store – James McBride Yellowface – R.F.

Chris paid her respects to the Barnes and Noble closing in Naperville, Illinois (they're opening a new format store in nearby Oswego), and visited one of her favorite used bookstores, The Frugal Muse in Darien. She also attended Biography International Organization's Biography Lab, an online forum about the craft.

From tortilla chips to tree bark, from fancy cheese to toe cheese, there's a world of smells all around us that tells us a lot about food, drink, and everything else. So says legendary food scientist Harold McGee in his new book, Nose Dive: A Field Guide to the World's Smells. Harold joins us to explain the connection between wet dog smell and fermented cabbage, and why we should have more “smell empathy” for others. Then we chat with Nik Sharma, whose new cookbook, The Flavor Equation, lays out the six components of flavor: aroma, sight, taste, emotion, sound, and mouthfeel. Why does tomato juice taste better on an airplane? Nik explains. Plus, Dan and Nik bond over their potato chip selection strategy.This episode originally aired on December 7, 2020, and was produced by Dan Pashman, Emma Morgenstern, Andres O'Hara, Tomeka Weatherspoon, Tracey Samuelson, and Jared O'Connell.
