Product: The Manor Exposed: Internet Racial Slur - When Social Media Meets Racism
Relevance: Irrelevant
My name is Lisa Fisher. I had never been discriminated against in all my life. Maybe I was and didn't know it. I always knew that racism existed, but I didn’t know what it felt like until I started fighting myself and destroying everyone and everything around me.

My husband and I struggled, but we enjoyed our life. He had experienced discrimination for many years and said, “Whenever you see racism, you have to root it out and show it for what it is.” That always stuck in my head. As an African American woman, I never saw people as a color or a race until the day I was hired to work as a home health aide at Mermaid Manor in late August of 2010.

Relevance: Irrelevant
A candid guide for ambitious women who want to succeed without losing themselves in the process

In The Myth of the Nice Girl, Fran Hauser deconstructs the negative perception of "niceness" that many women struggle with in the business world. If women are nice, they are seen as weak and ineffective, but if they are tough, they are labeled a bitch.

Hauser proves that women don't have to sacrifice their values or hide their authentic personalities to be successful. Sharing a wealth of personal anecdotes and time-tested strategies, she shows women how to reclaim "nice" and sidestep regressive stereotypes about what a strong leader looks like. Her accessible advice and hard-won wisdom detail how to balance being empathetic with being decisive, how to rise above the double standards that can box you in, how to cultivate authentic confidence that projects throughout a room, and much more.

The Myth of the Nice Girl is a refreshing dose of forward-looking feminism that will resonate with smart, professional women who know what they want and are looking for real advice to take their careers to the next level without losing themselves in the process.
