The scientist and the psychic : a son's exploration of his mother's gift / by Smith, Christian,1969-author.;
"The captivating story of a neuroscientist's life with his famous psychic mother and his extraordinary investigation into the science of the paranormal. Christian Smith realized his mother was different in the autumn of 1977 when he was eight years old. Before then, he'd witnessed seances at home and the kids at school sometimes teased him about his mom being a witch--so he sensed that his life wasn't typical. But it wasn't until he was backstage at Massey Hall in Toronto, watching from behind a curtain as Geraldine commanded an audience of 2,000 with her extrasensory readings, that he understood she was special. An only child to a single parent, in subsequent years he would assume the role of the quiet observer, while Geraldine guided a live CBC broadcast of a seance; made startling and consistently accurate predictions; and eventually offered her services to the parents of murder victims in LA. Over time, the high profile and emotionally depleting work affected Geraldine's health and relationships--addiction took over her life, and her son pulled away. Fast forward to the present day: Christian is a molecular biologist at the Hospital for Sick Children, and Geraldine is retired and in poor health. They are closer than they've ever been, and now he gives us the story of her undeniable perceptual abilities and pioneering work as a psychic--and endeavours to make scientific sense of it. Weaving together the strands of a complicated mother-son relationship with research into the paranormal, The Scientist and the Psychic is a fascinating, one-of-a-kind true story of belief, skepticism and familial love."--

The power of style : how fashion and beauty are being used to reclaim cultures / by Allaire, Christian,1992-author.;
"Style is not just the clothes on our backs--it is self-expression, representation, and transformation. As a fashion-obsessed Ojibwe teen, Christian Allaire rarely saw anyone that looked like him in the magazines or movies he looked to for inspiration. Now the Fashion and Style Writer for Vogue, he is working to change that--because clothes are never just clothes. Men's heels are a statement of pride in the face of LGTBQ+ discrimination, while ribbon shirts honor Indigenous ancestors and keep culture alive. Allaire takes the reader through boldly designed chapters to discuss additional topics like cosplay, make up, hijabs, and hair, probing the connections between fashion and history, culture, politics, and social justice."-- Provided by publisher.

The courage to change : saying goodbye to good enough and embracing the promise of what can be / by Meyer, Joyce,1943-author.;
"We've all heard the saying, "The only constant is change." Sometimes the changes we face, both expected and unexpected, can make our lives feel ungrounded and unsteady. And when we react to change with fear, an opportunity for growth can turn into overwhelming anxiety that locks us into situations, relationships, and ways of thinking and being that prevent us from living in the fullness of who we truly are in Christ. Beloved Bible teacher and #1 New York Times bestselling author Joyce Meyer wants us to know that even when we feel like the ground beneath our feet is shifting, we can stand firm on the promise of God's Word that He will see us through. With her signature insight and timeless wisdom, Joyce shows us how to align our emotional reactions to changes with the truth of God's promise that He will work all changes for good in our lives, even the most painful and difficult ones. In The Courage to Change, you will learn how to: -Embrace change as a necessary part of growth -Replace a mindset of fear with a mindset of opportunity -And live fully within the uncertainty of change while maintaining peace. We will all face changes again and again throughout our lifetimes. We don't have to live dreading the challenges that these changes bring. We can equip ourselves to become people of bravery, optimism, and hope in an ever-changing world, because we have God's assurance that His character and His promises will never change. Become a change warrior and embrace the courage to change. The Courage to Change also contains study questions at the end of each chapter for individual or group reflection"--
