You can stop settling now and live life on your terms. Jennifer Murphy has created a short sassy guide to thriving in a world that expects you to conform. If you have been living according to "should" up to this point and crave a way of life that feels truly fulfilling, start here. Jennifer shares her own unique experience and lessons learned along the way as she navigated the exact steps she will detail for you to create a life she wakes up excited to live and love in every single day - and that she shares with her clients across the globe as a life coach. This book offers the idea that many of us have created a societally accepted successful life which really doesn't match our idea of true success. We don't love it, we aren't fulfilled and we feel a constant pressure to measure up. It's time for rebellion against conformity. By the end of this book, you will be able to create your own rebellion following the Art of Living Dangerously Flow: * Birth your Rebellion as you create a clear vision for your optimal life. * Ignite the Rebellion by taking your first actions. * Lead your Rebellion through prioritization and acceptance. * Understand your Survival Skills and Super Strengths. * How to adapt and overcome when your Current Life Fights Back. And then you live dangerously. You step into energy that always felt taboo and maybe even insane. All at once you feel at home. This book is for the freedom seeking rebel within you demanding to blaze a new trail away from the well-traveled path of those they follow now. Live Dangerously, Create Your Rebellion.

One woman's incredible story of life on the front lines as an emergency medical worker in New York City.On the streets of New York City, EMTs and paramedics do more than respond to emergencies; they eat and drink together, look out for each other's safety, mercilessly make fun of one another, date one other, and, most crucially, share terrifying experiences and grave injustices suffered under the city's long-broken EMS system. Their loyalty to one another is fierce and absolute. As Jennifer Murphy shows in the gripping and moving First Responder, they are a family. A dysfunctional family, perhaps, but what family isn't? Many in the field of pre-hospital emergency care have endured medical trauma and familial hardship themselves. Some are looking to give back. Some are desperate for family. Some were inspired by 9/11. Still others want to become doctors, nurses, firefighters, cops, and want to cut their teeth on the streets. As rescuers, they never want people to die or get hurt. But if they are going to die or get hurt, first responders want to be there. Despite the vital role they play New York City, EMTs are paid less than trash collectors, and far less than any other first responder makes, even though the burden of medical emergencies fall on the backs of EMTs and medics. Yet for Jennifer and her brothers and sisters, it's a calling more than a job. First responders are constantly exposed to infectious diseases, violence, and death. The coronavirus pandemic did not change that math; the public is just more aware of it. After 9/11, EMT training schools experienced a surge in applications from civilians wanting to become first responders, inspired by rescuers who responded to the terrorist attacks and rushed into the burning towers when everyone else ran out. The same will almost certainly be true post-coronavirus as people are moved by a desire to help in times of crisis in a more direct way. Funny and heartwarming, inspiring and poignant, First Responder follows Jennifer's journey to becoming an EMT and working during and beyond the Covid-19 pandemic. She will bring readers inside an intense world filled with crisis, rescue, grief, uncertainty, and dark humor. First Responder will move readers to a greater understanding and appreciation of those fighting for them-wherever they live-in a world they hardly know or could imagine.

A beautiful and gripping psychological novel about a mother and daughter who, after a lifetime on the run from a dark and dangerous past, land in a small Michigan town that may hold the key to ending their fugitive lifestyle. For Blue Lake’s entire life, she and her mother, Scarlet, have been on the run from HIM—the man who Scarlet, a talented and enigmatic painter, insists is chasing them. But now, at fifteen years old, Blue has begun to resent the nomadic life that once seemed like an adventure, increasingly unsure what to make of the phantom pursuer she’s never seen. She only yearns to settle down in one place, to live a normal life.   When Scarlet and Blue arrive in the beachfront town of South Haven, Michigan, it seems that Blue’s wishes might finally come true. She makes a good friend, is falling in love for the first time, and has found a piano teacher who recognizes her budding talent. But even as Blue thrives, she cannot shake her worry about her mother, whose eccentricities and art are only becoming increasingly difficult to understand. Scarlet, meanwhile, has very different intentions for their stay in South Haven. It was no accident that she brought them there and, with the help of the psychoanalyst she’s sought out, Henry, she is determined to find a way to finally escape the shadow of her traumatic past, no matter the cost.   Told through the alternating voices of Blue, Scarlet, and Henry, Scarlet in Blue is a page-turning story about the ramifications of past trauma, the way art can hold our lives together, and, most of all, the enduring bond between mother and child.
