What if the path to healing your past begins with accepting your child for who they truly are? Collective Souls is a powerful, fictionalized account of four women learning to reclaim their voices. Set in rural 1980s Canada, the story unfolds through interwoven narratives of the women as girls, grappling with poverty, displacement, and generational trauma—setting the stage for who they will become as mothers. Each protagonist—fierce, flawed, and mother to an LGBTQ+ child—wrestles with where she fits: within her family, her community, and most of all, herself. All are determined to protect their children, even if it means facing truths that they have buried deep. This is a novel about motherhood as advocacy, about parenting not from perfection but from the desire to heal what you never had. It’s about the shift from silent shame to finding your voice, from survival to agency. With tenderness and grit, Collective Souls invites you into these women’s kitchens, barns, bars, and backroads—and into the hearts of women learning, at last, to belong to themselves.
What if the key to healing isn’t fixing yourself—because you were never broken? We are born whole. But as life unfolds, we are forced to leave essential pieces of ourselves behind. This self-abandonment, or “fracturing,” may have once helped us survive, but it comes at a steep cost. It fuels loneliness, restlessness, and dissatisfaction. It hides beneath anxiety, depression, burnout, people-pleasing, perfectionism, disordered eating, and chronic self-doubt. In Unfractured, psychotherapist, hypnotherapist, and EMDR practitioner, Tami Amit offers a groundbreaking and compassionate path back to wholeness. Through vivid stories and clear guidance, she introduces Radical Self-Acceptance Therapy (RSAT)—a holistic approach to healing inner fractures and reclaiming your authentic self. Drawing on psychotherapy, hypnotherapy, trauma release, shadow work, somatic therapy, and energy healing, RSAT shows you how to stop trying to fix what was never broken—and instead complete what was left unfinished inside. This book is your invitation to return to yourself—and step into a life of freedom, connection, and unshakable self-worth.

In a family history that stretches back five hundred years, Judy introduces readers to life under Old Colony Mennonite rules as experienced by her parents and grandparents in rural Canada and Mexico. Despite this history, it took Judy’s family only one generation to transition from Mennonite culture to mainstream society. It’s a story of family loyalty, excommunication, and danger that will engage not only the Peters and Guenther families but a wide range of readers who desire to learn more about the history of Mennonites in Canada. Problems with the colony began when Judy’s grandfather was excommunicated after driving from Mexico to Canada to visit his mother. His offence? Driving a car with rubber tires. Other excommunications followed, and he eventually fled Mexico for fear of his life, with his wife and eleven children in tow. A bounty had been placed on his head, and the family now had to fight to survive. The family was still Mennonite by culture, but no longer by faith or lifestyle. Plautdietsch, their mother tongue, was lost. In order to survive, they became hunters and gatherers so that they’d have food to eat even when they didn’t have money. But a greater strength than rules and regulations sustained them during these hardships—their love for each other and the ingenuity nurtured by their many struggles. An inspiring and educational family memoir, Mennonite to Mainstream will touch hearts of all ages.
Oh, I woke up early, before sunrise And prepared a simple meal. I hear the Book of Life speak, And this is what it said. In our present digital world of social media, building and maintain strong friendships can be a challenge. We return to friendship when we return to the basics of prayer and meet together face-to-face and place-to-place, caring, sharing and helping each other. The Blessing of Friendship encourages readers to take part in that system; to become fully engaged, fully alive, and woven into the fabric of life in the banquet of love. Through inspirational, religious poetry and songs, it celebrates the dynamics of friendship and the ways our lives are transformed when we let love into our hearts. With simple lyrics and powerful rhythm, the poems and songs collected here inspire the reader with friendship and love. Our lives are compared to a pendulum that goes back and forth from giving to receiving, not moving too fast or too slow, so that we do not get stuck in isolation and apathy. By listening to the quiet whispers within, we can all make the transition from student, to servant, to friendship, embraced by God’s love.
