This book is predominantly about everyday life. It’s about finding a ray of light in the shadows of our everyday existence. It’s about seeking humor and joy to combat the stress and anxiety many of us feel on a daily basis. This book is about finding the extraordinary within the ordinary. It’s about family, friends, hope, love, and life itself. It’s about appreciating the miracles of life that often go overlooked. Inspiration: A to Z includes chapters on staying positive, keeping things in perspective, maintaining healthy relationships, and the joys of parenting. Inspiration: A to Z is a rare peek inside the mind of professional Psychic Medium, Andy Myers. Some of the content is loosely related to his work, but the majority of this book includes introspective musings on a variety of subjects that you’ll find relatable regardless of your knowledge of psychic phenomena. This is a behind-the-scenes, all access invitation to view the world through Andy’s eyes. It’s bursting at the seams with inspirational and humorous stories that will leave a smile on your face.

The Grace to Race: The Wisdom and Inspiration of the 80-Year-Old World Champion Triathlete Known as the Iron Nun

SISTER MADONNA BUDER is 80 years old, has run more than 340 triathlons, and doesn’t know what all the fuss is about. In The Grace to Race, she shares the no-nonsense spirit and deep faith that inspired her extraordinary journey from a prominent St. Louis family to a Catholic Convent and finally to championship finish lines all over the world.

As a beautiful young woman, she became an elegant equestrian and accomplished amateur actress. But as she describes in this intimate memoir, she had a secret plan as early as 14: she wanted to devote her life to God. After being courted by the most eligible bachelors in her hometown, she chose a different path and became a Sister of the Good Shepherd.

She lived a mostly cloistered life as a Nun until her late forties, when a Priest suggested she take a run on the beach. She dug up a pair of shorts in a pile of donated clothes, found a pair of second-hand tennis shoes, and had a second epiphany. This time, she discovered the spiritual joy of pushing her body to the limit and of seeing God’s natural world in all its splendor.

More than thirty years later, she is known as the Iron Nun for all the triathlons she has won. Just five years ago, the age 75–79 category was created for her at the Hawaiian Ironman in Kona, where she completed a 2.4-mile swim, a 112-mile bike ride, and a full 26.2-mile marathon in record time. Now she has set her sights on a new goal: inaugurating another new Ironman age group, 80–84, in 2010.

Sister Madonna holds dozens of records, has broken dozens of bones, and tells of dozens of miracles and angels that propelled her to a far-flung race. “It is my faith that has carried me through life’s ups and downs,” she writes. “Whenever injured, I wait for the Lord to pick me up again and set me on my feet, confidently reminding Him, ‘God, you know, my intent is to keep running toward you.’”

The Grace to Race is the courageous story of a woman who broke with convention, followed her heart, and found her higher mission.

Inspiration for Autism

“Your son is severely developmentally disabled.”

A diagnosis of Autism. What does a family do next?

INSPIRATION FOR AUTISM shares a determined mother’s personal account of the denial accompanying a diagnosis, the confusion around finding resources, the fervor of obtaining services, the overwhelming and invasive nature of employing multiple therapists, and the discovery of the spiritual gifts revealed on this journey–gifts delivered from the Lord’s Hands directly into the hearts and minds of the family.

INSPIRATION FOR AUTISM is also a resource book, offering the reader valuable information about navigating the educational system, acclimating within the community, and training family and friends as therapists. This includes details regarding school placement options; laws; the IEP process; social and academic assessments; local and national advocates; and resources for helping the Autistic child learn and grow, including how to “fit in” socially and academically.

Author and mother Debra Rosen has worked in education for over twenty-five years, giving her the unique perspective of a parent who needs to walk within the system set in place for a special needs child, as well as the insight of an administrator who has helped shape that very system. Debra has grappled with the laws and organizations, and conveys her experience to the reader with dignity and integrity, knowing it is crucial for a parent to understand their rights and options. Autism is a challenge but it is manageable.
