Overthinking isn't a personality trait. It's the sneakiest form of fear. It steals time, creativity, and goals. It's the most expensive, least productive thing companies invest in without even knowing it. And it's an epidemic. When New York Times best-selling author Jon Acuff changed his life by transforming his overthinking, he wondered if other people might benefit from what he discovered. He commissioned a research study to ask 10,000 people if they struggle with overthinking too, and 99.5 percent said, "Yes!"

In Girl, Stop Apologizing, number-one New York Times best-selling author and founder of a multimillion-dollar media company, Rachel Hollis sounds a wake-up call. She knows that many women have been taught to define themselves in light of other people - whether as wife, mother, daughter, or employee....

At last, the definitive audiobook about perhaps the best cabin crew dramedy ever filmed: View from the Top starring Gwyneth Paltrow. In Ayoade on Top, Richard Ayoade, perhaps one of the most 'insubstantial' people of our age, takes us on a journey from Peckham to Paris by way of Nevada and other places we don't care about. It's a journey deep within, in a way that's respectful and non-invasive; a journey for which we will all pay a heavy price, even if you've waited for the smaller paperback edition. Ayoade argues for the canonisation of this brutal masterpiece.

At last, the definitive audiobook about perhaps the best cabin crew dramedy ever filmed: View from the Top starring Gwyneth Paltrow. In Ayoade on Top, Richard Ayoade, perhaps one of the most 'insubstantial' people of our age, takes us on a journey from Peckham to Paris by way of Nevada and other places we don't care about. It's a journey deep within, in a way that's respectful and non-invasive; a journey for which we will all pay a heavy price, even if you've waited for the smaller paperback edition. Ayoade argues for the canonisation of this brutal masterpiece.

The very strange but nevertheless true story of the dark underbelly of a 1960s hippie utopia. Laurel Canyon in the 1960s and early 1970s was a magical place where a dizzying array of musical artists congregated to create much of the music that provided the soundtrack to those turbulent times. But there was a dark side to that scene as well. Many didn't make it out alive, and many of those deaths remain shrouded in mystery to this day.

In this brave and moving memoir, Corey Feldman is revealing the truth about what his life was like behind the scenes: His is a past that included physical, drug, and sexual abuse, a dysfunctional family from which he was emancipated at age fifteen, three high-profile arrests for drug possession, a nine-month stint in rehab, and a long, slow crawl back to the top of the box office.

No one other than Warren Zanes, rocker and writer and friend, could author a book about Tom Petty that is as honest and evocative of Petty's music and the remarkable rock and roll history he and his band helped to write. Born in Gainesville, Florida, with more than a little hillbilly in his blood, Tom Petty was a Southern shit kicker, a kid without a whole lot of promise. Rock and roll made it otherwise.

From age 11, in 1974, until she left the show, in 1981, Melissa Anderson literally grew up before the viewers of Little House on the Prairie. Melissa, as Mary, is remembered by many as the blind sister - and she was the only actor in the series to be nominated for an Emmy. In The Way I See It, she takes listeners onto the set and inside the world of the iconic series created by Michael Landon, who, Melissa discovered, was not perfect, as much as he tried to be. In this memoir she also shares her memories of working with guest stars like Todd Bridges, Mariette Hartley, Sean Penn, Patricia Neal, and Johnny Cash.

A Must Read For All Performers!
An honest review from my daughter who I downloaded this audiobook for: Renna is not only an amazing author but an equally gifted narrator, I was never bored. Her tips work, seriously! I went from being the most anxious person at any audition to being confident and landing my dream role! The book works for auditions of all types, I even find myself using the tips in my day to day life or on set as well. Most books sound like dull lectures telling you everything your doing wrong but Hack Your Acting Audition is lively and relatable! I didn't find myself wanting more from this book and its amazing author because it has anything a new actor or seasoned pro could ever need! Trust me its an hour and twenty seven minuets that will change the rest of your life! I cant stress this enough, this book is so so SO worth it! Thanks so much Renna you've helped me as well as all other readers of this amazing (and very necessary) book!

Inspirational even at 70
This book is encouraging and filled with tips and information needed to succeed in the world of entertainment. The encouragement alone is grounding and so helpful to remember our own strengths and weaknesses and work on them accordingly. She has broken down the steps to maintaining sanity and serenity while going out on a limb and reaching for the stars. Then to let go and still enjoy and grow from wherever those stars land. Makes me wish I could do it all over again but I will strive to reach those stars as they present themselves in my life. This also serves as a good guideline for parents of the younger ones to help direct them with positivity and encouragement and never negativity

Don’t Miss This Empowering Read!
Definitely a must-listen! As a mom whose children have auditioned for over 20 years, I’ve observed the positive-and negative-effects auditioning can have in what can sometimes be a brutal industry. This book is one I wish I had 20 years ago! My favorite part was how the book teaches auditioners to thrive beautifully in the industry and bring a positive mindset and presence to every stage of the audition process! Auditioners, don’t miss this empowering read and excellent narration!
