Lisa Lloyd

I have always been weird. Not in a mysterious, sexy way. More like a ‘Where’s her carer?’ kind of way. 
 
Like any new parent, when Lisa Lloyd became a mum, her own needs were put at the bottom of a very long list. But for Lisa, adapting to life with kids was an uphill struggle – one with frequent meltdowns, from her as well as them. When both her children were diagnosed with autism, it all started to add up. Her behaviours growing up, the jobs she couldn’t keep, ALL the emotions … maybe there was a reason for it all. 
 
In Unmasking Mum, Lisa draws on her story of being diagnosed with autism at age 41 to shine a light on the highs and lows of parenting when you’re neurodivergent and offer helpful tips she's learnt along the way. From the sensory overload of life with kids, to their terrible sense of personal space and the imposter syndrome that rears its ugly head when other people’s children are just perfect – with humour and honesty, Lisa is pulling off the mask, for every parent who feels they too are 'weird'. The mask is stuck quite hard, but bit-by-bit, it’s peeling away, revealing a Lisa who has been hiding all along.

Jordan Haworth

Protect your gut, and your bank balance, by following these easy steps 
 
With kefir and kombucha lining the supermarket shelves and an onslaught of ads for probiotics, it’s impossible to avoid the new science of gut health. But what is it and why should you care? And do you really need all those supplements? 
 
In How to Gut Health, leading gut physiologist Jordan Haworth answers these fundamental questions and more, and what he has to say may surprise you. For example, did you know that the number one cause of bloating is not dairy or gluten, but not breathing properly?

Walking you through the best diet for your gut – the Mediterranean diet – as well showing you easy ways to boost your gut microbiome (without expensive pills or drinks!), How to Gut Health is the myth-busting, evidence-based guide that finally makes gut health simple.

In this evidence-based, no-nonsense guide to eating well, Senior Dietician Josie Porter helps you to understand exactly what your nutritional needs are and how to meet them with the best possible source of nutrients: food.

Helen Wall

Menopause and ADHD is your ultimate guide to understanding how your hormones may influence your ADHD – and it’s a two-way street: how your ADHD impacts how your perimenopause lands for you. This book will arm you with the facts, and help you to confidently advocate for your own health and wellbeing. 
 
Navigating menopause can be challenging for any woman, but for those with ADHD, the experience can feel like a bomb has gone off in your life. Health issues in all women are too often dismissed, misunderstood, or minimised by clinicians who label symptoms as anxiety or ‘just part of being a woman’. We are just starting to empower women to access the menopause support they deserve, but women with ADHD or other intersecting neurodivergence (often undiagnosed) are still woefully left behind in this arena. 
 
Helen Wall is a GP with years of experience advocating for women. MENOPAUSE AND ADHD will debunk myths, tackle systemic biases, and empower you to take charge of your well-being through this period of hormonal challenge. It’s time to be heard, be informed, and be your own best health advocate.

How to Raise an Emotionally Mature Child

Your Blueprint to a Lifetime of Happiness and Success for Your Child

Aiko Bethea

A bold framework for successfully navigating complicated interactions at work, at home and in all of our relationships – by one of the first leadership coaches to infuse her work with an equity lens and create spaces for connection that require both accountability and generosity. 
 
 What if the very moments that feel like setbacks could become openings for transformation? 
 
 Aiko Bethea teaches that what holds us back is not the challenge itself, but how we meet it. The tension at work. The misunderstanding at home. The silence in the face of discomfort. She calls these experiences 'the bullsh*t' because they keep us out of alignment with who we aspire to be. 
 
 But the bullsh*t is not the end of the story. It is the beginning of choice. Each moment of misalignment can shrink us back into old habits, or it can call us forward into a different way of leading, loving and living. With a witty, engaging voice, Bethea invites us to choose connection over competition, empathy over pity and vulnerability over ego, guiding us toward evolving into the version of ourselves we most respect. As she reminds us, 'bullsh*t can’t be fought off, but it can be transcended.' 
 
 Through her Anchored, Aligned, Accountable framework, Bethea draws on real-life experiences from her work as a facilitator and leadership coach, offering journaling prompts and practical exercises to support readers' growth. In doing so, she shows us how to step into that transcendence. Grounded in truth. Connected to values. Committed to action that changes not just what we do but who we become.
