    Better Than New: Lessons I've Learned from Saving Old Homes (and How They Saved Me)Better Than New: Lessons I’ve Learned from Saving Old Homes (and How They Saved Me)
    by Nicole Curtis

    ⭐⭐⭐ TODAY ONLY ⭐⭐⭐
    Over 200 5-Star Reviews!

    For the first time, Nicole Curtis, the star of the megahit HGTV and DIY Network show Rehab Addict, reveals her private struggles, her personal victories, and the inspiring lessons we can all learn from them.

    Nicole Curtis is the tough, soulful, charismatic dynamo who, for the past 20 years, has worked tirelessly to restore historical houses, often revitalizing neighborhoods in the process. And also in the process drawing millions of fans to her television show, Rehab Addict, where they follow each step of the hard work and singular vision that transform the seemingly lost cause of a run-down building into a beautifully restored home.

    But there is so much more to this self-taught expert and working mom. With her signature irresistible honesty and energy, Curtis writes about a project that every listener will find compelling: how she rehabbed herself. Better Than New reveals what’s not seen on TV – Curtis’ personal battles and her personal triumphs, her complicated relationships, her life as a single mother, the story of how she got started remodeling houses, and the consuming ins and outs of producing a megahit television show while keeping up with two kids, two rescue dogs, and countless tasks on her home renovation punch lists. Followers of the show will get an inside look at some of her most famous restorations, including the Dollar house, the Minnehaha house, the Campbell Street project, and the Ransom Gillis mansion.

    Part inspirational memoir and part self-help guide, Better Than New is a journey in eight chapters – each pinned to the story of a house that Curtis has remodeled, each delivering a hard-fought lesson about life – that takes listeners to the place we all want to be: home.

    As fans of her show can attest, Nicole is totally unscripted, and this audiobook – featuring extensive new material exclusive to the audio edition – is no exception.

  • AUDIBLE Deal of the Day 🎧 The Willpower Instinct

    A new deal every day from Audible. Today’s deal ends 10/05/2017 @ 11:59PM PT.

    The Willpower Instinct: How Self-Control Works, Why It Matters, and What You Can Do to Get More of ItThe Willpower Instinct: How Self-Control Works, Why It Matters, and What You Can Do to Get More of It by Ph.D. Kelly McGonigal

    Over 3,000 5-Star Reviews!

    Based on Stanford University psychologist Kelly McGonigal’s wildly popular course The Science of Willpower, The Willpower Instinct is the first book to explain the new science of self-control and how it can be harnessed to improve our health, happiness, and productivity. Informed by the latest research and combining cutting-edge insights from psychology, economics, neuroscience, and medicine, The Willpower Instinct explains exactly what willpower is, how it works, and why it matters. For example, listeners will learn:

    • Willpower is a mind-body response, not a virtue. It is a biological function that can be improved through mindfulness, exercise, nutrition, and sleep.
    • Willpower is not an unlimited resource. Too much self-control can actually be bad for your health.
    • Temptation and stress hijack the brain’s systems of self-control, but the brain can be trained for greater willpower.
    • Guilt and shame over your setbacks lead to giving in again, but self-forgiveness and self-compassion boost self-control.
    • Giving up control is sometimes the only way to gain self-control.
    • Willpower failures are contagious – you can catch the desire to overspend or overeat from your friends­­ – but you can also catch self-control from the right role models.

    In the groundbreaking tradition of Getting Things Done, The Willpower Instinct combines life-changing prescriptive advice and complementary exercises to help listeners with goals ranging from losing weight to more patient parenting, less procrastination, better health, and greater productivity at work.

    Over 1,000 5-Star Reviews!

    On a dark night in 1775, Lizzie Boylston is awakened by the sound of cannons. From a hill south of Boston, she watches as fires burn in Charlestown, in a battle that she soon discovers has claimed her husband’s life.

    Alone in a new town, Lizzie grieves privately but takes comfort in her deepening friendship with Abigail Adams. Soon, word spreads of Lizzie’s extraordinary midwifery and healing skills, and she begins to channel her grief into caring for those who need her. But when two traveling patriots are poisoned, Lizzie finds herself with far more complicated matters on her hands – she suspects a political plot intended to harm Abigail and her family.

    Determined to uncover the truth, Lizzie becomes entangled in a conspiracy that could not only destroy her livelihood – and her chance at finding love again – but also lead to the downfall of a new nation.
