A Three-Step Plan for Achieving Your Dreams

By: Jillian Michaels

Imagine. Believe. Achieve. Many self-help books offer a lot of new age platitudes and sappy mantras: Just love yourself. See the glass as half full. Believe it and it will come. Really? That’s not how it works, and you know it. A lifetime’s worth of struggle is not overturned in a small moment of positive thinking. But if you have the right attitude—attitude and skills—you can and will accomplish anything and everything you want. This book gives you both, attitude and action. By its end you will have all the tools you need to change your life. No hype. No false promises. You will learn to: • Cultivate your passion and embrace your uniqueness to create a purpose-filled life . . .on your own terms. • Transform your suffering into peace, wisdom, and strength. • Work through fear, worry, shame, and negative self-talk to blast through obstacles and create self-confidence, self-esteem, and a healthy self-image. • Take powerful, informed, deliberate actions to make your dreams a reality. Forget surviving: it’s your time to thrive. You do have the ability and potential to achieve unlimited health, wealth, and happiness. Getting there won’t all be easy—nothing worthwhile ever is—but take this journey and your life will change dramatically. Your possibilities are unlimited, and your life is waiting for you to break free and claim it

The 5 F-Bombs

And Our Attempts at Defusing Them

By: Jillian Potashnick

Over a glass of wine (or three), my friends and I would find ourselves discussing the exact same topics that I’ve been hearing my fitness clients vent about for years. They all revolve around the constant female struggles I have affectionately labeled “the five F- bombs”—food, fitness, friends, family, and faith. Much like a seesaw, life has its ups, downs, and fun times along the way, no matter our age. This childhood playground pastime requires a combination of work, resistance, and balance, which actually relates to our everyday lives, and we never even knew it. Have you found yourself wondering things like: What the hell am I going to make for dinner tonight? How do I get motivated to fit back into my designer jeans? I need to find my new adult girl-gang. I’m trying to define my current family roles. If there really is a God, why does chocolate taste so good and brussels sprouts taste so bad? If you can relate to having had any of these thoughts cross your mind, and I know you can, then this book is definitely for you. I have spent over a decade working in the fitness industry, training women of all ages. What I discovered was that we are all struggling with the same F-bombs on a daily basis. This is not a how-to book, as there isn’t only one way to defuse any of these bombs. It is merely a collection of stories, suggestions, and ideas that, like an all-you-can-eat Vegas buffet, you can add to your plate or pass right on by. The Five F-Bombs will take you on a lighthearted, humorous, and informative journey through the commonalities that women share and discuss with their female counterparts. You will laugh, you may cry, and hopefully you will even learn something cool along the way. Let the fun begin!

Aesthetics of Excess

The Art and Politics of Black and Latina Embodiment

By: Jillian Hernandez

Heavy makeup, gaudy jewelry, dramatic hairstyles, and clothes that are considered cheap, fake, too short, too tight, or too masculine: working-class Black and Latina girls and women are often framed as embodying "excessive" styles that are presumed to indicate sexual deviance. In Aesthetics of Excess Jillian Hernandez examines how middle-class discourses of aesthetic value racialize the bodies of women and girls of color. At the same time, their style can be a source of cultural capital when appropriated by the contemporary art scene. Drawing on her community arts work with Black and Latina girls in Miami, Hernandez analyzes the art and self-image of these girls alongside works produced by contemporary artists and pop musicians such as Wangechi Mutu, Kara Walker, and Nicki Minaj. Through these relational readings, Hernandez shows how notions of high and low culture are complicated when women and girls of color engage in cultural production and how they challenge the policing of their bodies and sexualities through artistic authorship.

Mothering by Degrees

Single Mothers and the Pursuit of Postsecondary Education

By: Jillian M. Duquaine-Watson

In Mothering by Degrees, Jillian Duquaine-Watson shows how single mothers pursuing college degrees must navigate a difficult course as they attempt to reconcile their identities as single moms, college students, and in many cases, employees. They also negotiate a balance between what they think a good mother should be, and what society is telling them, and how that affects their choices to go to college, and whether to stay in college or not. The first book length study to focus on the lives and experiences of single mothers who are college students, Mothering by Degrees points out how these women are influenced by dominant American ideologies of motherhood, and the institutional parameters of the schools they attend, and argues for increased attention to the specific ways in which the choices, challenges, and opportunities available to mothers are shaped within their specific environments, as well as the ways in which mothers help shape those environments...

Social Policy and Social Change

Toward the Creation of Social and Economic Justice

By: Jillian Jimenez

A timely examination of social policy through a social constructivist and economic lens, Social Policy and Social Change illuminates the root causes of common social problems and how policy has attempted to ameliorate them. In so doing, the book focuses on how social policies in the United States can be transformed to promote social justice for all groups. The book uniquely offers both an historical analysis of social problems and social policies, and an economic analysis of how capitalism and the market economy have contributed to social problems and impacted social policies. The book goes beyond the U.S. borders to examine the impact of globalization in the United States and in the Global South. It considers the meaning and impact of the election of Barack Obama as President of the United States and explores the policy solutions his administration has proposed to deal with the economic recession of 2008-2009. The book also discusses social workers as agents of social change and advocates of social and economic justice. It examines five key realms: Poverty in families and the welfare system, poverty among the elderly and social security, child maltreatment and child welfare policy, health and mental health policy, and housing policy. Social Policy and Social Change is a primary text for social policy/social welfare policy courses in MSW programs and possibly some higher level BSW programs. It will be supplemented with a comprehensive ancillary program, including a test bank, instructor's manual, and student website.

Prescription for Inequality

Exploring the Social Determinants of Health of At-Risk Groups

By: Jillian M. Duquaine-Watson

This book explores how social determinants of health (SDH) impact the health of a variety of marginalized demographic groups in the United States. Chapters focus on the 13 groups that research demonstrates are most disadvantaged by SDH and, consequently, who suffer the most from ongoing health disparities in America. This includes Black and Hispanic individuals, the LGBTQIA+ community, women, the elderly, people with disabilities, veterans, and those living in rural areas, among others. Chapters follow a standardized format that makes it easy for readers to focus in on aspects of the subject that are of greatest interest. Each profile begins with a snapshot of that group's current state of health, including the biggest medical concerns and how other determinants of health may play a role. Next, each chapter takes an in-depth look at the four components of SDH: economic factors, educational access and quality, healthcare access and quality, and living environment and social context. Unique problems and possible solutions are explored within each of these four sections. An end-of-volume bibliography and further readings list points readers who wish to continue their investigation of the topic toward additional information. Relying on an interdisciplinary framework, the book incorporates research from diverse fields including public health, feminist theory, critical studies of race and ethnicity, poverty studies, disability studies, aging studies, cultural competence, legal studies, and global health. In recognition of the reality that health disparities are the result of a complex interplay of forces and structural factors that permeate American culture, analysis extends beyond health and health care to include a broad range of interrelated social, political, economic, and educational components.
