Westerly R: Career Change After Layoff
at 50

Career Change After Layoff at 50

The Relaunch Point - A practical guide to career change after a layoff at 50, turning experience into your next chapter

Please Do Disturb: How True Leaders Show Up When It Matters Most challenges one of leadership's biggest misconceptions, that great leadership is primarily about strategy, authority, or performance. Instead, Rachel Alday, Linny Jones, and Harte Logan make the case that exceptional leadership begins with something far more human: presence, connection, and the ability to create belonging. Drawing from Alday's decades of experience building a luxury hospitality company, and Jones and Logan’s organizational consulting perspective, the authors reveal how the principles behind extraordinary guest experiences can transform the way leaders serve their teams, organizations, and communities. Through engaging stories, practical frameworks, and lessons learned while growing a business to nearly $25 million in annual revenue managing approximately 200 luxury homes, they demonstrate that the leaders people remember aren't necessarily the ones with the best ideas—they're the ones who consistently show up when it matters most. At its heart, Please Do Disturb is a book about creating environments where people feel seen, heard, valued, and like they truly belong. It explores how intentional moments of connection build trust, strengthen culture, and inspire people to do their best work, not because they have to but because they want to, leading to phenomenal results. Whether you're leading a company, a team, or a family, or simply striving to become more intentional in your relationships, this book offers practical wisdom for cultivating deeper connection, fostering belonging, and leading with authenticity in a world that increasingly craves both. Please Do Disturb reminds us that leadership isn't measured by titles or influence alone. It's measured by the people we choose to notice, the connections we create, and the lasting sense of belonging we leave behind.

The Timeline of Self-Defense

Quiet in the Room - A guide to overcoming social anxiety at work, speaking up in meetings, and building real confidence on the job

Social Anxiety at Work

The fear of an empty calendar is really the fear of facing the unstructured void that defines freedom after
decades of routine, and part of "Finding Purpose After Retirement" by Bellamy Hartwell explores how the
sudden absence of daily obligations reveals hidden anxieties about personal identity.

When retirement strips away your structured day, it no longer feels like a reward but an unsettling challenge to
discover what truly matters. Finding Purpose After Retirement is not a step-by-step guide, a one-size-fits-all
plan, or a list of prepackaged solutions. Instead, it unpacks the psychological shifts that occur when the routine
empties and new questions emerge about personal fulfillment.

Through relatable scenarios:
- The Empty Schedule: Why the transition from full days to empty ones can trigger existential crises, as
routines offer more than just tasks-they provide a sense of purpose.
- Discovering New Passions: How the pursuit of long-neglected hobbies or interests reveals deeper fears
about capability and relevance.
- Volunteering for Purpose: The realization that giving back not only serves others but also restores
personal meaning and self-worth.
- Rediscovering Old Hobbies: Why revisiting old passions can be a journey of reclaiming identity lost to
life's demands.

Every chapter delivers actionable insights to help you navigate these transitions, equipping readers with the
tools to redefine their sense of purpose. Start reading Finding Purpose After Retirement today and find your
renewed direction in retirement.

Finding Purpose After Retirement

SMART-THINKING BUSINESS BOOK OF THE YEAR 2026 'Amazing' - Chris van Tulleken 'A must-read' - Dr. Robert Cialdini 'Transformative' - Daniel Pink 'A culture-shifting manifesto' - Jonah Berger 'Powerful' - Adam Grant Why is it so hard to speak up, even when we know something's wrong? This is the definitive book on defiance, a clear-eyed dissection of the forces that silence us, featuring groundbreaking research and legendary stories alongside everyday examples and strategies for how to unleash the power of a "True No." Many of us comply much more than we realize. How many times have you wanted to object, disagree, or opt out of something but ended up swallowing your words, shaking your head, and just going along? Analyzing cases ranging from corporate corruption and sexual abuse to everyday acquiescence at work, the doctor's office, and in our personal lives, award-winning organizational psychologist Dr. Sunita Sah delves deep into why the pressure to comply is a corrosive and often invisible force in our society. With her own revelatory research, she radically transforms our idea of defiance from a misunderstood negative trait into a crucial, positive force for personal and societal change. Taking us through her five stages of defiance, Dr. Sah equips readers with simple tools to make decisions that align with their values. Defy is the essential playbook for how to speak up and act when it matters most.

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER "Fascinating stories. . . . Boxing ourselves in may be the ultimate way to think outside the box." —Wall Street Journal “I thought David Epstein’s first two books were brilliant, but Inside the Box is his best. I’ll never think about my own work the same way again.” —Malcolm Gladwell It's never been easier to do too much. From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Range, why limits are the key to stimulating creativity, innovation, collaboration, and personal contentment. We live in a world that gives us seemingly infinite choices and prizes freedom above all else. We have an unprecedented number of options regarding what to do, who to be, and how to spend our time. All that choice is wonderful; it is also overwhelming. The irony is that total freedom can be paralyzing, and unlimited resources don’t necessarily lead to the biggest breakthroughs. In fact, overvaluing complete freedom can be disastrous for everything from starting a company to harnessing creativity to finding personal satisfaction. David Epstein argues that all of us—individuals, businesses, institutions, even societies—can benefit from narrowing our options. He dives into the science and practice of constraints, exploring exactly when and how guardrails can be beneficial, whether we’re working with limited resources or using self-imposed boundaries to tap unexpected wells of focus and innovation. Original, galvanizing, and deeply researched, Inside the Box tells absorbing stories of people and organizations that embraced constraints to transform themselves, and the world—as well as a few that struggled from a lack of limits. Epstein reveals how boundaries create breakthroughs, and how setting the right constraints can help you become the most creative, productive, and satisfied version of yourself.

It celebrates the surprising potential of hard deadlines, boring goals, and unexpected obstacles. And it reveals how to set the right constraints to enable you to be the most creative and productive version of yourself.

THE IRISH TIMES------The international bestseller.Our families shape who we are.

A compassionate understanding of how we can recognise and reconcile the legacies we carry.' Galit Atlas, psychoanalyst and author of Emotional Inheritance'A deep and comprehensive look at the ways that those ordinary people we call "parents" unwittingly share their pain with their children; and how important it is for all of us "children" to be aware of such historical pain, and explore ways to transform it.' Gwen Adshead, forensic psychiatrist and psychotherapist and author of The Devil You Know'A sage companion for anyone who has wanted, or needed, to confront the past and engage with the present. Inherited Fate is full of possibility and curiosity, and disrupts the avoidant gaze . . . Offers rigour to the ongoing conversation of embodied trauma.'
