10 lessons the SAS taught me about life

Liliana Myers

A beautiful, uplifting celebration of the life of The Hairy Bikers’ Dave Myers from his widow. 
 
Dave Myers lived his life with joy. He always told his wife Liliana, that if you were going to do something, you should do it full-heartedly. With that in mind, Liliana gives her whole self to writing a celebration of his life and their love, full of the warmth and joy that Dave and the Hairy Bikers brought to their many fans throughout their career spanning two decades. Liliana invites readers into her world, sharing her personal story and professional insights as a grief counsellor, offering a unique perspective on the complexities of grief and the healing process. 
 
Liliana takes us on an intimate journey through her life with her beloved husband, recounting their serendipitous meeting in 2005, the blossoming of their relationship as pen pals and the adventures that followed as they built a life together in the UK. Interspersed with vivid memories – like the plaid shirt that carries a special significance, the shoes that tell a story of their travels, and the lost wedding ring that symbolises their unbreakable bond – Liliana paints a rich tapestry of their life together. She describes the joy of their wedding day, the camaraderie of friendships, and the challenges they faced during Dave's cancer diagnosis, their journey through treatment and the final days they spent together. 
 
As well as a reflection on Liliana’s profound grief, this deeply moving memoir is a testament to the enduring power of love and, amidst the sorrow, Liliana finds ways to celebrate Dave’s life, honour his legacy and the impact he had on a nation that adored him. Looking to the future, Liliana offers readers a beacon of hope, sharing her coping strategies and the ways she keeps Dave's memory alive. Dave and Me is a deeply heartfelt tribute to a remarkable man and story of love that transcends loss.

Will Young

The Sunday Times Bestseller. New edition, updated with added content. 
 
Navigating day-to-day life can be a tricky business. By the time we are adults, our experiences have formed our way of thinking and we have learned patterns of behaviour that are not always helpful. We must unravel these to understand, accept, nurture and allow ourselves to rise with our vulnerabilities, not in spite of them. 
 
After having a breakdown in 2011, Will Young went about the process of interrogating everything he thought he knew: how he formed his identity, what he relied on for self-esteem and how he behaved and communicated. Everything he has learned over the past ten years, he has now condensed into this easy to access A-Z guide. He digs into how everyday life can affect our wellbeing, how we can navigate our emotions, where they come from and how to create a balanced mindset, offering practical techniques we can all use to ground ourselves and set boundaries. 
 
With wit and wisdom and revealing his own vulnerabilities along the way, Will shows us how to identify destructive patterns, develop good mindful habits, be true to who we are and grow into better versions of ourselves.

Louise Thompson

The number 1 Sunday Times bestseller. Now including a new chapter, with untold stories updating on Louise's life. 
 
How do you learn to live again when you've danced with death? 
 
Louise’s road to having a baby was far from easy, suffering a heartbreaking miscarriage during her first pregnancy and being caught in a terrifying house fire in her second. But her troubles were far from over when she gave birth. During an emergency c-section, she had severe complications and fought for her life over a number of days, whilst her son was taken into NICU. This terrifying experience impacted on Louise's mental health in a way that completely changed her life, as she has battled to come to terms with what happened to her, whilst also becoming a mother. 
 
As Louise has rebuilt herself step by step, she has reflected back on her past – from her childhood and dynamics with her family, to her struggles with alcohol and toxic relationships, as well as the rollercoaster years of her time on Made in Chelsea. 
 
Louise’s experience has changed the way she sees the world and redefined what's important to her. Although it has been a challenging journey, she is determined to come out more alive than ever. Louise’s powerful story, told with raw honesty, shows the incredible human ability to overcome anything, no matter what life throws at you. 
 
'Searing, truthful and compassionate. Louise Thompson might count herself Lucky but we are the lucky ones to have this book.' Elizabeth Day

***THE INSTANT NUMBER ONE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER***'The most raw, funny and liberating look at what it is to be a woman.' – FEARNE COTTON 
 
‘Paloma is a storyteller like no other. Empowering and healing – a whole generation of women are about to feel SEEN!’ – GIOVANNA FLETCHER 
 
'Gritty, funny, poetic and freeing.' – ANNA MATHUR, Psychotherapist and bestselling author 
 
'A tremendous book, both entertaining and important' – The i newspaper 
 
Can women 'have it all'? 
What does it mean to be a woman and a mother in the modern age? 
 
In this passionate, funny and fierce polemic, Paloma Faith delves deep into the 
issues that face women today, from puberty and sexual awakenings, to battling 
through the expectations of patriarchy and the Supermum myth. 
 
Infused with Paloma's characteristic humour, and raw honesty about the 
challenges of IVF and the early years of motherhood, this book is a beautiful 
celebration of women's work and the invisible load women carry. Moving from 
questions around identity and how motherhood impacts on that, to what it even 
means to be a 'good mother', how we need to embrace messiness, 
imperfection and the bittersweet pleasures of being 'selfish', and putting 
ourselves first. 
 
Paloma invites us into her own coming of age and relationship with her mum, to 
explore how our bonds with our children evolve into adulthood. We see a 
glimpse of the complexities and joys of Paloma's experience of juggling 
romantic love, heartbreak and dating with the demands of motherhood.

Fern Britton

‘I didn’t know it at the time, as I didn’t have a word for it then, but I’ve repowered several times in my life. Leaving home in my teens, changing careers from theatre to TV to author, battling my way out of the dark pit of postnatal depression and rebuilding my life as a single mother after the end of my marriage. All these were hard. All of them taught me big lessons. Perhaps the biggest of these was that I can do it. And so can you.’ 
 
Fern had recently entered her 60s when a series of life-altering events threw her into the eye of the storm. Both her parents passed away, her 20-year marriage ended, and the pandemic was looming.Faced with an uncertain future, Fern decided that if she wanted to start over, now was the time. She moved to Cornwall, where she reconnected with her true self and instead of fearing getting older, she chose to create a glorious new life full of friendship, fun and adventure.Fern explores the joy and challenges of aging with warmth and humour. She reflects back on all she has learnt, from enduring tough times to embracing new opportunities and learning how to be kinder to herself. This wasn’t a moment of empowerment, for that would suggest she never had any power to begin with. As women, we often put our needs aside, and she feels strongly that it’s time for us to repower and rediscover our happiness.In The Older I Get, join Fern as she candidly shares her experiences of grief and loss, rebuilding confidence and exploring new passions, as well as the importance of finding friends you can put the world to rights with over a couple of Cosmos.

Samantha Renke

'A powerful book on how to live boldly and love your fabulous self' Fearne Cotton 
 
We are made to think that what makes us human - our flaws, failures, and heartaches - are things to keep hush-hush. Being unapologetically imperfect is seen as something we should be embarrassed by. But what I've learned is that we all experience the same insecurities. We just aren't talking about it. Well, I'm here to break the silence. 
 
For starters, I have way too many nipple hairs. I prefer the company of my pets to other people. And repeatedly I question Am I normal? I was born with brittle bone condition and so far, I've broken my bones 200 times. But most of the hurdles I face don't come from my disability, they come from things we all experience. 
 
In this book, I will share the lessons I have learned and why you should embrace your uniqueness as what makes you fabulous. We spend a lot of time living by others' expectations and it's only when you stop, that you start saying yes to life. Irrespective of who you are and the obstacles you might face, you can do whatever you want. Be free and unapologetically you.
