After a string of rejections from men who tell her they could never, ever, ever see her “that way,” awkward third-grade teacher Micaela Blei signs up for a mysterious course called “The Divine Feminine,” and feels like she might have found the key to the perfect life. Turns out if you’re an A student, you can get an A in anything–including men. Pretty soon she’s learning to "conjure" her desires with vision boards, flirtations, and even a daring jumbotron viewing party for her, ahem ... "divine center."

Dementia Guideline!
With the audiobook's many useful tools and step-by-step instructions, caregivers can make the home and community a more helpful place for the person they care for. Whether it's changing living spaces or setting up a daily care routine, every detail is carefully thought out and dealt with, leaving no room for question or hesitation. The most important thing about this guide, though, might be how much it stresses self-care. It talks about the mental toll caregiving can take and acknowledges the difficulties that come with it.
