Description

THE BOOK THAT ANSWERS: HOW CAN I BE A MOTHER AND STILL BE ME?

Part manifesto, part memoir, part guide; this book unflinchingly flips conventional thinking surrounding motherhood on its head. From Danusia Malina-Derben, mother of 10, entrepreneur, thought leader, and critically acclaimed podcast host - this is a long-awaited, no-holds-barred book on why our current thinking about modern motherhood is overdue a radical overhaul.

On the one hand, this book is about being a mother, but it's also about how, once we become mothers, we're not allowed to be ourselves.

NOISE is a powerful dismantling of the barriers and central tenets that hold women back.

This manifesto was built to start a conversation; it's a call-to-arms to get ideas flowing through our communities, and an invitation to think differently about what we're repeatedly told about motherhood.

An intimate, bold blend of memoir, thought-leadership and research, Danusia provocatively reframes the NOISE around motherhood and repositions mothers as the social change agents our world desperately needs. -About the Author: Danusia Malina-Derben is a mother of ten children, and still her own woman.

From teen mother to tenured Organisational Behavior and Development academic, and onto award-winning, internationally published leadership expert.

Danusia traded academia to head a global firm that fixes corporate boardrooms and develops top talent.

She also hosts two critically acclaimed companion podcasts; School for Mothers and School for Fathers.

Danusia has received praise and recognition from The Sunday Times to Metro, Psychologies to Good Housekeeping.

She lives in the South Downs, UK with her family, and their mini-dachshund, Dickie. -Reviews:"It is a beautiful thing when a book about motherhood is about people; about remembering that mothers are people in their own right.

I think we so often forget that. This is a soothing slap in the face reminder." Hollie McNish, author of Nobody Told Me & Slug"I kept saying, yes, yes, YES, all the way through this book.

Noise is like a much-needed set of ear defenders against the sadly increasing, not decreasing, clamour of the current age that tells mothers what they should or shouldn't be.

Every mother should shut out the noise and read this." Vicky Allan, co-author of Still Hot!"This book is brimming with honesty, extremely thought provoking and challenging long held beliefs.

It's time that a book, instead of sharing instructions on how to be a good mother, created a space for mothers to stop and think.

I identified with so much in this manifesto it was like reading about my life!

Noise will create debate and conversations. A must read for all mothers and women who are considering motherhood." Debbie Gilbert, author of Amazon bestseller: The Successful Mumpreneur"Danusia urges us to quieten the noise so that our voices can be heard.

This book was like breathing in everything that you thought you had to be, and breathing out a new you that is everything you thought you couldn't." Eleanor Tweddell, author of Why Losing Your Job Could be the Best Thing That Ever Happened to You
