On The Power of Vulnerability, Dr. Brown offers an invitation and a promise - that when we dare to drop the armor that protects us from feeling vulnerable, we open ourselves to the experiences that bring purpose and meaning to our lives. Here she dispels the cultural myth that vulnerability is weakness and reveals that it is, in truth, our most accurate measure of courage.

Highlighting the fascinating link between a child’s neurological development and the way a parent reacts to misbehavior, No-Drama Discipline provides an effective, compassionate road map for dealing with tantrums, tensions, and tears - without causing a scene. Defining the true meaning of the “d” word (to instruct, not to shout or reprimand), the authors explain how to reach your child, redirect emotions, and turn a meltdown into an opportunity for growth.

No consequences for bad behaviours, just conversations
Reviewed: 21-01-2020
I feel this parenting strategy is trying to foster a relationship with the child so that you can go through life being their best friend. As admirable as that is, and yes we want our kids to come to us with problems in their life, we do also have to teach that bad behavior and poor choices actually have consequences in order to set them up for the real world. No, I am not going to just have a conversation with my kid if they are hurting my other child, absolutely they are going to get stern words and no they are not meant to ‘enjoy’ being disciplined. Yes it is about teaching and I like the idea of being a calm parent, but I also do not want to reinforce bad behavior with positive attention, which I feel is exactly what would happen if I followed the authors advice. I didn’t find much of value in this book, it seemed to live in la la land, not in the real world.

The best-selling and ABIA Award shortlisted memoir from Osher Gunsberg, one of Australia's most loved celebrities, about life, love and living with mental illness - powerful, dark, funny, and heart-wrenching. It's hard to remember a time when Osher Gunsberg (or Andrew G as he was then) wasn't on TV - he's just always been there, looking at ease in the spotlight, beaming a big smile, with a questionable haircut.

Really enjoyed Osher’s frank, witty and honest story. Refreshing to hear such a transparent account of living with and learning to manage mental illness.
