Description

Is your foundation built to last?

Modern manhood is often defined by a quiet, exhausting endurance. We are taught to be the lighthouse; sturdy and unmoving; but we rarely talk about the cost of the storm. In this essential guide, software engineer and entrepreneur Barasa Herbert peels back the facade of invulnerability to reveal the structural blueprint for true resilience.

Drawing on his own journey through the complexities of professional leadership, education, and the pressures of modern life, Herbert offers more than just motivation; he provides a tactical toolkit for navigating crisis. Whether you are facing career stagnation, financial strain, or the weight of unmanaged expectations, The Unseen Burden shows you how to isolate your challenges, analyze your constraints, and engineer a life of clarity, discipline, and purpose.

This book is a roadmap for the man who is ready to stop just “getting by” and start building. It will teach you how to:

  • Break the cycle of silent burnout by identifying the specific failure points in your current routine.
  • Engineer solutions to financial and career crises using a structured, step-by-step problem-solving protocol.
  • Build a sustainable life rooted in discipline, connection, and a clear vision for the future.

Barasa Herbert reminds us that the goal is not to be a machine that never fails, but to be an architect who can rebuild, iterate, and flourish. A better tomorrow isn’t a wish; it’s an outcome you can build.

But when a prestigious eco-resort contract in Lamu demands a collaborative bid, her past walks straight back into her boardroom.

Now, they are forced into the same studio to design the breathtaking Baobab Retreat. As they blend her brutalist structural piers with his organic canopy, the intense professional rivalry reignites an undeniable, long-suppressed passion.

Godmothers Why You Need One How to Be One by Lisa Bevere

Books, International Bestsellers, Women
£13.50 £12.00
Brief Summary There is a role unique to women that we abandon easily. We live near each other, but not with each other--and not for each other. We don't want to intrude or judge and, maybe, we don't want to see each other truly succeed. And the world is happy with this unhappy state for women--one that pushes us to conform to a pattern of distrust, disengagement, and competition. It's no wonder we've lost ourselves, and our way. In her most personal, powerful book yet, New York Times bestselling author Lisa Bevere offers a catalytic, transformative vision for women of a different way to live--one that embraces the presence of a godmother--the older, wiser women you can go to and learn from, the strong women who partner with us through life. And everyone needs one! Drawing from her own life, biblical women, and the world of fairy tales, Lisa will show you how to transform what you have into what God wants you to have, push you forward during seasons of doubt, and love you enough to speak truth about God's larger, expansive view of your life. Lisa's candid, compassionate words are your best first step to living as a daughter of God, surrounded by strong relationships and confidence in your calling.

The Bitter Better Truth That Breathes by Angel

Memoirs
£13.50 £11.25
We all face moments when life's currents pull us under, unexpected challenges, hidden battles, and silent storms that test the very core of who we are. The question is never if we'll stumble, but how we rise again. This book is about that rise. Through the lens of Stacy's journey-a young lady who once hid her true self behind layers of fear, conformity, and societal expectation-you'll discover the power of raw honesty, resilience, and faith. Stacy's story reflects the struggles we all face: the desire to fit in, the weight of judgment, and the quiet yearning to be ourselves simply. Her breakthrough is one we can all claim: self-acceptance. By daring to embrace her "dark truth," she found not just survival, but transformation-a life anchored in authenticity, courage, and God's greater purpose. Inside this book, you will find: A reminder that every stumble is an invitation to rediscover your strength. A step-by-step journey toward inner healing and lasting self-worth. Practical truths: - Acknowledge Your Reality - Clarity begins with honesty. - Refuse Stagnation - Keep moving forward, no matter how small the step. - Embrace the Progress - Celebrate the small victories that shape your transformation. This is more than a diary-it's a testimony, this is a fiction- autobiographical- memoir. A roadmap for anyone who has ever felt unseen, unworthy, or trapped by the weight of expectation. The Bitter Better Truth That Breathes is a call to stop hiding, start healing, and discover the possible within the impossible. If you've ever wrestled with self-esteem, shame, denial, or the struggle to belong, this book will meet you where you are and walk with you toward freedom.
