Learn Rewirement and Work-Life Integration From the C-Suite Couple Who’s Done It for 45 Years
CHICAGO, May 30, 2023 (CarryOnHarry.com)
–
Ilene Gordon and Bram Bluestein, the C-suite couple that has been practicing rewirement and work-life integration for 45 years, has released the hardcover edition of Doubling Down: The Secret Sauce for Dual-Career Families. For anyone who desires to excel in a big career, sustain a loving relationship, and raise children who grow up to be happy and healthy adults, this is the playbook that reveals the new elixir to making it all work in 2023 and beyond.
“The ability to model all that an enriching, fulfilling life can be for your children while also managing rigorous work schedules as high-level executives is nothing short of heroic,” said Elliott Wislar, CEO of Clearbrook. “Bram and Ilene are modern role models for us all, in fact, epitomizing a grand American dream. I’m inspired by the many examples in their book but also, fueled to be more self-aware and intentional as a leader and parent. This is quite a unique guide.”
Examples in Doubling Down are poignant and timely, with loads of research underscoring their advice. Both authors shaped rigorous careers and crisscrossed the world in their roles while “doubling down” on their family needs in sometimes creative ways. They learned to be supportive partners, agree on compromises, and evolve in their professional identities while keeping family first.
Ilene Gordon served as CEO of Ingredion, a Fortune 500 company, and was named five times to Fortune’s “50 Most Powerful Women in Business” U.S. list, and twice to Fortune’s international list. Bram Bluestein held senior leadership positions at several of the most respected consulting firms in the world, including Boston Consulting Group, Kearney, and Booz Allen Hamilton. Since the release of their first edition of Doubling Down, Ilene and Bram have brought their message to Chicago Finance Exchange, The Wharton Club, MIT Sloan, Columbia Business School, Loyola University’s Baumhart Center for Social Enterprise & Responsibility, Stanford Law School, and many others.

Bishop Jephthah Sotabinda’s Newly Released “Divine Verses Volume 2” is a Compelling Collection of Spiritual Messages Offering Divine Insight and Guidance
Bishop Jephthah shares, “The verse-styled publication of the messages of the Lord Jesus Christ continues with volume 2 of the Divine Verses. This volume 2 is a sequel to the first and previous publication of the Divine Verses. As the holy spirit of God continues to impart the messenger of the Lord Jesus Christ, Bishop Jephthah, with the needed godly knowledge, another publication of the Divine Verses has to be born.
Like the first and previous publication, this volume is also a thorough portrayal of pure divine truths and wisdom, as it brings absolute clarity on all kinds of truths, be it truths about life, love, or God. But the ultimate truth, which is the truth about God and his Son, Lord Jesus Christ, is the main foundation of the book because it is the highest truth in existence.
For the reason that the Lord Jesus is desirous to see that everyone attains salvation, he continues to pass on his messages of truth to his messenger so that those who pay heed to them can be saved.”
Published by Christian Faith Publishing, Bishop Jephthah Sotabinda’s new book inspires readers to deepen their understanding of God’s truth.

Fourth Horseman Press Releases New Book – “Sex for Dinner, Death for Breakfast: James Bond and the Body”
In Sex for Dinner, Death for Breakfast: James Bond and the Body, cultural critic Brian A. Dixon takes readers on an incisive exploration of one of modern culture’s most enduring icons—James Bond. Drawing on the novels, films, artwork, and advertising that have defined the Bond franchise for over seven decades, Dixon reveals how the world’s most famous secret agent became a mirror for our evolving obsessions with politics, pleasure, and violence.
From the tailored suits and shaken martinis to the extravagant villains and their exquisite methods of execution, Dixon exposes how every appetite, indulgence, and act of violence reflects our collective anxieties and desires. Bond’s adventures, he argues, are more than escapism—they are cultural performances of power, sexuality, and identity that have shaped generations of audiences and foretold social shifts long before they happened.
Through sharp analysis and a flair for storytelling, Sex for Dinner, Death for Breakfast uncovers how James Bond embodies the body politic—then, now, and in the stories that continue to unfold on screen and in print.
A must-read for fans of cultural criticism, film and literary studies, and anyone fascinated by the intersection of pop culture and ideology, Dixon’s work challenges readers to reconsider what lies beneath Bond’s iconic tuxedo and unflappable composure.
Sex for Dinner, Death for Breakfast: James Bond and the Body is now available in a hardcover edition featuring cover artwork by Marc Aspinall exclusively from Fourth Horseman Press at fourthhorsemanpress.com.
