Abas Mirzaei, a faculty assistant professor in branding at Macquarie Business School, observes that woke branding has become the new wave that brands can no longer avoid. Avoid going woke, and your brand risks irrelevancy, especially with younger consumers. Go woke, and you're likely to experience a backlash.Until relatively recently, people wanted to buy high-quality cameras, reliable cars, and durable shoes and active wear. Today, however, many people want to buy a camera (to capture scenes of social injustice), shoes (that weren't made using child labor), and cars (that emit minimal carbon and are safe for the environment). Likewise, we purchase "animal-friendly" vegan handbags that are not associated with animal cruelty and use ride-sharing services that promise not to exploit drivers.In getting woke, fighting discrimination, and questioning the status quo, there are questions to address, steps to follow and considerations to take note of. This book unpacks the dynamics of woke branding, identifies its ingredients, and offers a roadmap for those wanting to walk into the uncertain world of wokeness. This book is neither a pro-woke nor an anti-woke polemic. Instead, with the appropriate critical distance, it presents a range of different views about wokeness: from woke authenticity, to cute wokeness, to woke sacrifice, and woke execution ingredients.So, if you're weighing the risks of engaging in "woke" moves and aren't sure how consumers will respond, then this book is for you.

How often have you experienced a powerful urge to do something and fought against it, only later to discover that your intuition was correct? How do we learn to listen to the God within and block the chatter of outside noise? These divine whispers not only inform and guide us but also serve as reminders that the creator is ever present in our lives, not just during difficult times.Intuition and Divine Whispers focuses on author LeNora Millen's spiritual journey and personal relationship with God. Millen calls on us to listen to the inner voice of God, which some call intuition or divine guidance. She doesn't seek to condemn or convert those who have not experienced miracles, the paranormal, or the gift of insight. Instead, she shares the path she traveled with a plethora of twists and turns, revealing aspects of her life previously only known to family and close friends. Most importantly, she explores what it means to pray and move out of your own way to allow your creator to work through you and for you.Using biblical references throughout the book, this inspirational and personal narrative explores intuitive guidance, God's divine spirit, and miracles materializing in our lives.

I suffered a massive stroke in 2016 that affected my breathing, speech, swallowing, vision, and motor control. Thanks to neuroplasticity, I expect to recover 100%, but it will take years.According to CDC, 1 in 4 (or 83 million) Americans will have a stroke (during their lifetime). Of that, 18% or 15 million Americans will die from a stroke, and 72% or 60 million Americans will live with a long-term disability. Despite its prevalence, we know little about stroke.This book recounted my experience as a stroke survivor in the early years of 2016, 2017, 2018, and 2019, but shifted focus to the generation-defining events in 2020, 2021, and 2022. This is because rehab in the later years was too repetitive to recount.

Their pastor was still ministering to them.The Words of John, Thoughts of God is founded on the Bible as God's holy inspired word written by the writers he chooses to speak through. The devotions contained show how God works among his people through his word to encourage the church on earth in its faith and practices.Journeying through the EPISTLES of John, author Mike Ramey delves into the depths of God's word to share with God's people the truth, hope, and peace found in the Bible.
