You Are Going to Make It
I wanted to write about real life, real experiences, true journeys and raw emotions - the feelings of every day living amidst the trauma and drama of divorce.It's true that women often find themselves being put on the back burner, especially after a divorce. The fact is, no one knows what to do with us. The world quickly labels us as this or that, and I should know. I had to carry on after a divorce, and it meant dealing with that awful period of time after everything finalized. In that post-mortem moment there is no turning back, and instead we must "turn the page" and begin a new chapter. No one can tell your story like you, and within these pages I share mine.
One Life Lost, Millions Gained
Joan Sullivan Garrett AutobiographyForeword by Barbara Barrett, 25th United States Secretary of the Air Force ~ "Like Joan, I encourage young people to pursue their dreams and consider lives of service. One Life Lost, Millions Gained inspires me and will surely inspire future generations of business and medical professionals." If you haven't heard of Joan Sullivan Garrett or MedAire, you are in for a ride! As a flight nurse, all Joan ever wanted to do is save lives. In 1984, the loss of a young patient in the remote mountains of Arizona compelled her to pioneer global telemedicine - quite a feat in those days. As an unlikely CEO, Joan found a way to connect ground-based emergency physicians to flight crews from anywhere in the world - a safety net for you, the traveler, during medical emergencies. This entrepreneurial story shares the passion and sacrifice required to build a legacy, which continues today through the international company Joan built from scratch and her numerous industry awards and honors.Ed Bolen, President and CEO of the National Business Aviation Association ~"Joan is an absolute giant in the field of aviation." www.joansullivangarrett.com
The Devil's Fruit
The Devil's Fruit describes the facets of the strawberry industry as a harm industry, and explores author Dvera Saxton’s activist ethnographic work with farmworkers in response to health and environmental injustices. She argues that dealing with devilish—as in deadly, depressing, disabling, and toxic—problems requires intersecting ecosocial, emotional, ethnographic, and activist labors. Through her work as an activist medical anthropologist, she found the caring labors of engaged ethnography take on many forms that go in many different directions. Through chapters that examine farmworkers’ embodiment of toxic pesticides and social and workplace relationships, Saxton critically and reflexively describes and analyzes the ways that engaged and activist ethnographic methods, frameworks, and ethics aligned and conflicted, and in various ways helped support still ongoing struggles for farmworker health and environmental justice in California. These are problems shared by other agricultural communities in the U.S. and throughout the world.

Shine the Light

The forgotten wisdom of children
Glistening sunlight, a warm breeze and the smell of freshly cut grass. You raise your eyes. The forest, the field and the river seem like something from another world. A scurrying in the undergrowth. An enchanted creature? You run, you stumble, you fall, you pick yourself up. You laugh. The world is a play of colors. Where are you? What time is it? What are you up to? A call from afar. Your name. Time for dinner. All this may seem like a fever dream as you sit here reading these words. Isn't that telling? We've come a long way as adults, but what wouldn't we give to feel like children again? I invite you back to a time when we knew truths that we miss today.
