After contributing to nearly $1 billion in sales at Oracle, Hilary DeCesare left the corporate world to explore why so many high-performing women still experience burnout and a sense of being stuck. She is now a Master Certified Neuroscience Coach who uses brain-based methods to help women break through what she calls the "identity ceiling"—the invisible limit that keeps them operating below their full potential. A three-time international bestselling author, speaker, and identity and energy strategist, she integrates neuroscience, psychology, and more than 25 years of consulting and coaching experience. Her work focuses on helping women move beyond reactive patterns, shift their internal state on demand, and lead with greater clarity and confidence. DeCesare has been featured in Forbes, USA Today, and Entrepreneur, and appeared on ABC's "Secret Millionaire."

Vamoose: Stories is a vibrant, fast-paced collection by acclaimed author Kathy Anderson, blending humor, heart, and literary depth. These interconnected short stories center women who claim their own narratives and shape their own futures. Part literary fiction, part queer celebration, and part darkly comic exploration of modern womanhood, the collection explores loss, reinvention, and the unexpected freedoms that come from letting go. Across shifting moments of change, the stories feature surprising love, resilience, and emotional clarity, often delivered with sharp wit and insight. Before becoming a full-time writer, Anderson worked for more than 25 years as a librarian in small-town public libraries. She has been long listed for The Story Prize, which the NY Times says, recognizes the best story collection to be published each year.

First published in 2006, Girlbomb quickly received critical acclaim for its unflinching honesty and fast-paced storytelling, offering a rare, female-centered perspective on youth homelessness, addiction, and the complex relationships shaped by friendship and first love. Janice Erlbaum's distinctive voice—wry, resilient, and unmistakably Gen X—helped establish the memoir as both a compelling coming-of-age story and a vivid cultural snapshot of its era. Nearly twenty years later, Girlbomb remains strikingly relevant for its exploration of mental health, homelessness, and the experiences of LGBTQ+ youth. Erlbaum is a former editor at BUST Magazine, and her work has appeared on MTV and been featured in Harper's Bazaar and Vanity Fair. Her writing has also earned praise from the The NY Times Book Review.
