Hartford, CT, February 16, 2023 –(CarryOnHarry.com)– Publish Your Purpose announced new book launch for Joel A. Davis Brown’s book, “The Souls of Queer Folk: How Understanding LGBTQ+ Culture Can Transform Your Leadership Practice.”

You’d be hard-pressed to find a leader who doesn’t want to be better. Yet, at a time when leaders are being asked to do more with fewer resources, modern professionals are having a difficult time leading in a distinctive, powerful, and transformative way. At a time when leaders are feeling besieged, the question is: to whom should they turn to learn, develop, and embody a new form of inspired leadership? For some, the answer may be surprising. As we start to appreciate the diversity in our world and the talent that comes from underserved markets and underrepresented communities, our society has a great opportunity to refashion our workplaces, rebrand how we lead our social organizations and educational institutions, and rebuild our communities. In this groundbreaking book, Dr. Davis Brown demonstrates how the values and norms of the LGBTQ+ community are instructive for leaders in all types of business and industry, and can serve as the foundation for a bold, new brand of transformative leadership.

Using quantitative and qualitative research methods, Dr. Davis Brown conducted a study to illuminate the lived experiences and cultural values of the LGBTQ+ community. Based on that research, he developed 9 leadership dimensions that show how understanding the cultural imprint of the LGBTQ+ community is essential for organizations to be employers of choice and for global communities to maintain their vitality. Today’s generation of leaders need time-tested, practical, and dynamic “sage advice” to deal with the perils of an increasingly complex world. The Queer wisdom that Dr. Davis Brown highlights will help any leader promote sustainable growth, foster equity and connection, and demonstrate human-centered leadership as the global landscape continues to change and evolve in the 21st century.

The LGBTQ+ community is multifaceted, talented, and gifted in so many ways. Yet there are forces in society that continue to silence and discriminate against LGBTQ+ people. Given the challenges we face in this day and age with climate change, poverty, war, extremism, displacement, and repression, strong leadership and wisdom are critical. It’s time to broaden our perspective and open our eyes to a way of being that encourages everyone to reach their potential and be proud of who they are.

“The Souls of Queer Folk” is available at your favorite place to purchase books.

Sonoma County Memoir “My Wine Country” Recounts Author Victor Sanchez Jr.’s Path Through Hardship

Sonoma County Memoir “My Wine Country” Recounts Author Victor Sanchez Jr.’s Path Through Hardship

Balle Balle Radio™ Entertainment Desk

Victor Sanchez Jr. has published a memoir, "My Wine Country," drawing on his own upbringing in Sonoma County to describe a childhood marked by hardship and what the author describes as an eventual path toward stability. The book is out now through Page Publishing, available in bookstores and through major online retailers including Amazon, Apple iTunes, Google Play, and Barnes and Noble.

According to the announcement, the book traces Sanchez’s life from adolescence, when he began facing what the publisher describes as life’s most demanding challenges, through his later experience as a cancer survivor. Both periods, the announcement states, inform the book’s reflections on survival and endurance.

The publisher describes "My Wine Country" as both a personal memoir and a broader meditation on resilience, built around themes of loss, perseverance, and what the announcement calls the quiet joys that sustain people through difficult periods. Sanchez frames the project in personal terms. "This book represents my truth," he said in the announcement. "I wanted to share my story not just as a survivor, but as someone who learned that pain and joy are inseparable parts of what makes us human."

The setting is a specific one: Sonoma County, part of California’s wine country, a region more commonly associated in print with travel writing and vineyard guides than with memoirs of adolescent hardship. That contrast, between the postcard image of the region and the account Sanchez describes living through there, is part of what the book is positioned around.

Studio CarryOnHarry will be watching to see how Sanchez’s account of place complicates the wine country’s usual story.

Brooklyn Prosecutor Turned Civil Attorney Publishes Memoir on Rising from Poverty in Jacksonville

Balle Balle Radio™ Entertainment Desk

Rudolph Silas, Esq. has published "Fate Smiled on the Misbegotten: An Autobiographical Novel," a memoir tracing his path from a childhood in Jacksonville, Florida, marked by poverty to a career as an attorney in New York. Studio CarryOnHarry received the announcement from Page Publishing, which released the book this month.

According to the book’s own description, the memoir recounts the story of a poor Black child born out of wedlock with few options, and how perseverance, fortunate circumstances, and unexpected kindness from others transformed what began as limited prospects into a life of achievement. The announcement frames the book as both a personal account and a broader reflection on class, race, and what remains possible in America despite systemic obstacles.

Silas’s legal career forms a throughline for the book, according to the announcement. After establishing himself as a prosecutor in Brooklyn, he subsequently defended New York City agencies and everyday citizens in civil matters, securing what the announcement describes as numerous seven-figure verdicts and settlements.

"What began as a series of disadvantages became the foundation for a life I could never have imagined," Silas said in the announcement. "I wrote this book to show others facing similar circumstances that their current situation does not determine their destiny."

"Fate Smiled on the Misbegotten" is available through Page Publishing, as well as Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Apple Books, and Google Play.

Studio CarryOnHarry is always interested in how professionals outside publishing translate hard-won expertise, legal, medical, or otherwise, into memoir, and this one fits that pattern worth watching.
