New Releases by Abby Wambach

Apesar de tudo o que Glennon Doyle viveu, ela se deu conta de que, aos quase 50 anos, ainda lida com os mesmos dilemas, como se as respostas para as questões de vida que ela passou anos refletindo tivessem se dissipado pelo caminho. Nos momentos de dificuldade, ela encontra apoio em sua irmã, Amanda, e em sua esposa, Abby. No entanto, no intervalo de apenas um ano, as três enfrentaram desafios pessoais devastadores: Glennon foi diagnosticada com anorexia, Amanda descobriu um câncer de mama, e Abby teve de lidar com a perda do irmão. Pela primeira vez, todas se sentiram perdidas ao mesmo tempo. Foi então que recorreram à única coisa que sempre as guiou de volta ao eixo: conversas profundas com pessoas corajosas e sábias que enfrentaram suas próprias batalhas. Deu-se início a um dos podcasts mais ouvidos do mundo, We Can Do Hard Things, no qual as autoras receberam convidados de diversas áreas de atuação, de celebridades a especialistas. Dessas trocas, descobriram algo poderoso e transformador: 1. Não importa quão árdua seja a jornada que você está trilhando, alguém já passou por ela antes 2. O conhecimento de nossos companheiros de jornada iluminará nosso próprio caminho Os aprendizados que acumularam, capazes de responder a 20 questões existenciais que ressoam na mente de muitos de nós, estão reunidos neste livro. Podemos fazer coisas difíceis é um mapa de aprendizados para quando você se sentir à deriva, estiver buscando clareza em meio ao caos ou precisar de um lembrete de que, mesmo diante dos maiores desafios, é possível seguir em frente.

Cuando viajas a un nuevo país, necesitas una guía. Cuando viajas a través del amor, el sufrimiento, la alegría, la paternidad, la amistad, la incertidumbre, el envejecimiento, el duelo, los nuevos comienzos… en definitiva, cuando viajas a través de la vida, también la necesitas. Esta obra es esa guía que a veces necesitas para vivir. Cada día, Glennon Doyle se plantea las mismas preguntas: «¿Por qué soy como soy? ¿Cómo puedo averiguar lo que quiero? ¿Por qué no puedo ser feliz? ¿Estoy haciendo lo correcto?». Cuanto más dura se vuelve la vida, menos probable es que recuerde las respuestas que lleva años aprendiendo. «Tengo casi cincuenta años. He superado muchísimas cosas. ¿Por qué me levanto cada día habiendo olvidado todo lo que sé?», se pregunta. Su hermana, Amanda, y su mujer, Abby, son su brújula. Sin embargo, a lo largo de un mismo año, Glennon fue diagnosticada de anorexia, Amanda de cáncer de mama y Abby perdió a su querido hermano. Por primera vez, las tres se sentían perdidas al mismo tiempo. Así que recurrieron a lo único que siempre les ha ayudado a encontrar el camino: conversaciones sinceras y profundas con otras personas valientes, compasivas y sabias. De este modo, se hicieron la siguiente pregunta, tanto entre ellas como a sus amigos más queridos y a 118 de los buscadores de sentido más brillantes del mundo: «Al transitar esos caminos —matrimonio, paternidad, trabajo, recuperación, sufrimiento, envejecimiento, nuevos comienzos…— has aprendido lecciones que puedan sernos útiles para encontrar el nuestro? Mientras Glennon, Abby y Amanda escribían cada una de estas respuestas «salvadoras», descubrieron dos cosas: 1. No importa qué carretera tomemos; alguien más ya la ha transitado antes. 2. La sabiduría de nuestros compañeros de viaje iluminará nuestro camino. Ahora, han depositado toda esta sabiduría en estas páginas: un lugar al que recurrir cuando te encuentres sin rumbo y solo, cuando necesites claridad en medio del caos, o cuando quieras sabia compañía en el sendero de la vida. Todos somos viajeros, pero no tenemos por qué caminar solos. Esta obra puede ser la guía que ilumine tu camino cuando así lo necesites.

The #1 New York Times bestselling authors and award-winning podcasters Glennon Doyle, Abby Wambach, and Amanda Doyle created We Can Do Hard Things—the guidebook for being alive—to help fellow travelers find their way through life. When you travel through a new country, you need a guidebook. When you travel through love, heartbreak, joy, parenting, friendship, uncertainty, aging, grief, new beginnings—life—you need a guidebook, too. We Can Do Hard Things is the guidebook for being alive. Every day, Glennon Doyle spirals around the same questions: Why am I like this? How do I figure out what I want? How do I know what to do? Why can’t I be happy? Am I doing this right? The harder life gets, the less likely she is to remember the answers she’s spent her life learning. She wonders: I’m almost fifty years old. I’ve overcome a hell of a lot. Why do I wake up every day having forgotten everything I know? Glennon’s compasses are her sister, Amanda, and her wife, Abby. Recently, in the span of a single year, Glennon was diagnosed with anorexia, Amanda was diagnosed with breast cancer, and Abby’s beloved brother died. For the first time, they were all lost at the same time. So they turned toward the only thing that’s ever helped them find their way: deep, honest conversations with other brave, kind, wise people. They asked each other, their dearest friends, and 118 of the world’s most brilliant wayfinders: As you’ve traveled these roads—marriage, parenting, work, recovery, heartbreak, aging, new beginnings—have you collected any wisdom that might help us find our way? As Glennon, Abby, and Amanda wrote down every life-saving answer, they discovered two things: 1. No matter what road we are walking down, someone else has traveled the same terrain. 2. The wisdom of our fellow travelers will light our way. They put all of that wisdom in one place: We Can Do Hard Things—a place to turn when you feel clueless and alone, when you need clarity in the chaos, or when you want wise company on the path of life. We are all life travelers. We don’t have to travel alone. We Can Do Hard Things is our guidebook. Featuring wisdom from: ALOK • Sara Bareilles • Dr. Yaba Blay • Kate Bowler • adrienne maree brown • Brandi Carlile • Brittney Cooper • Brittany Packnett Cunningham • Kaitlin Curtice • Megan Falley • Jane Fonda • Stephanie Foo • Ashley C. Ford • Ina Garten • Roxane Gay • Andrea Gibson • Elizabeth Gilbert • Dr. Orna Guralnik • Tricia Hersey • Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson • Luvvie Ajayi Jones • Dr. Becky Kennedy • Emily Nagoski • Esther Perel • Ai-Jen Poo • Cole Arthur Riley • Dr. Alexandra Solomon • Cheryl Strayed • Sonya Renee Taylor • Ocean Vuong • And many others

«Ho segnato più gol a livello internazionale di qualsiasi altro giocatore o giocatrice della storia. Ho vinto due medaglie olimpiche e un campionato mondiale FIFA. Sono traguardi incredibili, ma fin da bambina l''aspetto che ho amato di più del calcio non era vincere. Quello che mi piaceva era essere membro di una squadra UNITA. Io e le mie compagne tenevamo le une alle altre, ci difendevamo e ci rispettavamo a vicenda, sempre e comunque. Ero parte di una squadra di donne, ero una leader di queste donne.» Abby Wambach, lasciato il calcio, è diventata un''icona mondiale per i diritti delle donne. Questo è il libro manifesto della sua filosofia per la nuova consapevolezza femminile. «Le donne si riveleranno la salvezza della nostra società. Noi donne siamo ciò che tutti stanno aspettando. NOI. SIAMO. LE. LUPE. Il mio Branco era sempre stato la mia squadra di calcio. Il mio nuovo Branco sarebbe stato composto dalle Donne di Tutto il Mondo. »

Based on her inspiring, viral 2018 commencement speech to Barnard College’s graduates in New York City, New York Times bestselling author, two-time Olympic gold medalist and FIFA World Cup champion Abby Wambach delivers her empowering rally cry for women to unleash their individual power, unite with their pack, and emerge victorious together. Abby Wambach became a champion because of her incredible talent as a soccer player. She became an icon because of her remarkable wisdom as a leader. As the co-captain of the 2015 Women’s World Cup Champion Team, she created a culture not just of excellence, but of honor, commitment, resilience, and sisterhood. She helped transform a group of individual women into one of the most successful, powerful and united Wolfpacks of all time. In her retirement, Abby’s ready to do the same for her new team: All Women Everywhere. In Wolfpack, Abby’s message to women is: We have never been Little Red Riding Hood. We Are the Wolves. We must wander off the path and blaze a new one: together. She insists that women must let go of old rules of leadership that neither include or serve them. She’s created a new set of Wolfpack rules to help women unleash their individual power, unite with their Wolfpack, and change the landscape of their lives and world: from the family room to the board room to the White House. · Make failure your fuel: Transform failure to wisdom and power. · Lead from the bench: Lead from wherever you are. · Champion each other: Claim each woman’s victory as your own. · Demand the effing ball: Don’t ask permission: take what you’ve earned. In Abby’s vision, we are not Little Red Riding Hoods, staying on the path because we’re told to. We are the wolves, fighting for a better tomorrow for ourselves, our pack, and all the future wolves who will come after us.
