The Tide That Turns

Second Wind

I often hated my brother, but I have to understand his life. The unflinching story of Édouard Louis's brother's violent life and death. 'One of the most important, politically vital and morally bracing writers of his generation' GUARDIAN 'Bracing, pulverising... burns with white-hot truth' COLIN WALSH Édouard's brother spends much of his life dreaming. He lives in a poor, working-class world, where he imagines that he will become one of the finest butchers in France, that he will travel, that he will make his fortune, that he will restore cathedrals, that he will earn his father's love. But his reality allows none of this. There is no way to escape, no one who can show him how, and everything about him - his drinking, his violence, his behaviour with women and with others - condemns him. At thirty-eight he is found dead on the floor of his small studio apartment. This book is the story of his collapse. Translated by TASH AW 'Louis has never been tenderer, more sophisticated, or more fully on form' NAOISE DOLAN 'Spare, raw... Édouard Louis is someone who makes writing matter' NEIL BARTLETT 'Belongs to that vital group of writers, amongst the likes of Cusk, Rankine and Ernaux, who have revitalised and reinvented their own form' ANDREW McMILLAN Praise for Édouard Louis 'I feel so lucky to be living and writing at the same time as Édouard Louis' MAGGIE NELSON 'One of the major writers of our time' GARTH GREENWELL 'Louis is a master of the poetics of juxtaposition, elucidating the hostile and the intimate... the vulnerable and the resilient' YIYUN LI

Collapse

Why the career ladder you were climbing has come apart, and what to do about it.Your job title may still be intact. The meetings continue; the monthly presentation still needs producing. But AI is already taking on the reporting, coordination, research and analysis work that once justified whole teams. The change seldom arrives with a dramatic announcement. It's more insidious than that: the hire is paused, the contractor is not renewed, the promotion evaporates.Written by someone building the tools behind this shift, The Next Rung looks at the knowledge-work middle: project leads, analysts, account managers, operations teams and managers whose jobs depend on orchestration. It traces the pressure from boardroom economics to kitchen-table arithmetic, and asks what happens when professional incomes and mortgages are exposed at the same time.Inside, you'll find: <ul> <li> The roles AI is quietly hollowing out </li> <li> Why the 'junior grind' is disappearing </li> <li> The 80/20 Collapse in professional work </li> <li> A practical audit of your exposure and runway </li> <li> The human capabilities that still matter </li> <li> Routes towards trades, portfolio work and community enterprise </li> <li> What AI's gains mean for housing, welfare and inequality. </li> </ul>This is a clear-eyed notebook from inside the transition, focused on judgement, resilience and building work with more human value. It will let you know where you stand, strengthen your options, and help you make your next move before the ladder disappears beneath you.

Why AI is breaking the career ladder, and how to find your next step

How to Have a Fulfilling Career That Does Good

80,000 Hours

'A wonderful book.' Cathy Rentzenbrink'A remarkable tale' The SpectatorA giant wheel of Comte¿ - a cheese full of delight, a mosaic of flavour - can sometimes become flat. Despite all that's gone into making it and caring for it, its complexity mysteriously vanishes, its spark dies. Cheesemongers know that. That's why they regularly test the cheeses: they insert a cheese iron deep into the wheel and extract a sample from its core. Sometimes they can cure it and sometimes they can't.A highly successful BBC and Guardian Journalist, somehow Michael Finnerty's life had become flat. His psychological cheese iron told him he needed to make a change, and he becomes convinced his salvation lies in cheese. Michael becomes an apprentice cheesemonger at Borough Market, and is plunged into a world of intense physicality, extraordinary knowledge, and total geeky passion. From learning the cheese's personal nighttime riders - Castillon Frais needs to sit in its box underneath some waxed paper but its box needs to be kept in a plastic sheath, Comté sits unwrapped in a cool cupboard, and has a quick saline bath before bed - to learning intricate ways to wrap their different shapes; from being able to taste nuances between the cheeses, to slicing fingers, bruising toes, getting allergic reactions, and the simple dog-tiredness of being on your feet from the crack of dawn till night, Michael's new job is more demanding than he could ever have imagined - and he loves it. Then when Borough Market is subjected to a terrifying attack, Michael realises through cheese, he has found something even more powerful - community.

How Comté and Camembert Fed My Soul

The Cheese Cure

The retail Home Video industry of Hollywood came in like a hurricane in the mid-1990s, bringing hundreds of millions of dollars to increasingly stagnant movie studios desperate to combat rising film and TV production costs. The windfall was a shot in the arm for nearly all media conglomerates, propelling companies to create more and more entertainment.

Then, merely 15 years later, it was gone. 

In an eerie echo of what is happening across industries today, this intriguing business memoir tells the story of that era, and of the disappearing career paths of those who lived it, as told by the Hollywood executive who was there in the center of it all, from the birth of Home Video, to the DVD revolution, to the moment it all disappeared. 

Part behind-the-scenes memoir, part playbook for those looking to risk-proof their own careers, Pivoted moves from factory floors and flight lines to studio lots and boardrooms, through stints that include McDonnell Douglas, Disney, New Line Cinema, and many more, to show how careers and lives can pivot on a dime, at any corporate level.

For readers of career memoirs and practical leadership stories, this is a sober look at how corporate America increasingly works, and how its workers increasingly don't. It includes real-world advice about how to prepare for unforeseen career changes, and the skills you need today to be ready for the future.

Marshall Carr is a senior operations executive in Hollywood with over 25 years of leadership experience in the worldwide entertainment industry. He has held key roles at New Line Cinema (SVP of Operations and Distribution), Technicolor (VP of Global Account Management), and Universal Music Group (SVP of North American Supply Chain), overseeing major global accounts and multimillion-dollar operations. In this personal memoir, Marshall takes you along on his own journey, company by company, revealing the inside story of each, along with his own insights into generational career expectations and many personal asides. As the wave of digital change overcame each of company, Marshall and many others like him were left increasingly desperate to constantly search for the next job, one by one, learning insights along the way, as he eventually became Pivoted.

Most people don't hate their jobs. They hate feeling trapped in them.
You've been told entrepreneurship requires a blind leap-burn the boats, quit first, figure it out later. That's the most expensive advice you'll ever follow.
In Don't Quit Your Job, Yet, John Harris dismantles that fantasy. After building a restaurant empire, losing seven figures, filing bankruptcy, and rebuilding from his own basement, he learned the brutal difference between motion and progress.
This field manual rests on three truths:Your job is the platform for your dreams.
Freedom without structure is exposure.
Preparation beats passion.




At its core is The Freedom Ratio-a metric that measures real independence-and the Parallel Path Operating System, a disciplined way to use your 9-to-5 as an angel investor while building a durable business.
Inside:The Parallel Path: Fund your build without burnout.
The Franchise Trap: The truth about "proven systems" and personal guarantees.
The Provider's Math: Ambition meets family responsibility.
Psychological Armor: Filter noise, protect focus.
The Three Tests: Quit with proof, not panic.




Whether you're a trapped professional, a stuck side-hustler, or a founder rebuilding, this is the blueprint. Stop romanticizing the leap. Engineer the exit. Build structure first. Freedom follows.

DON'T QUIT YOUR JOB YET
