A. L. Wicker’s New Book ‘Shifting Emotions’ Shares the Journey of Four Best Friends Who Shift Through Their Emotions to Gain the True Knowledge of Success

November 4, 2022

SNELLVILLE, Ga. – November 4, 2022 – (Newswire.com)

Fulton Books author A. L. Wicker, who has enjoyed reading, writing, and storytelling since she was a young child, has completed her most recent book “Shifting Emotions”: a gripping and potent novel that follows the intertwining stories of four best friends as they experience the ups and downs of life.

Silver, Jasmine, Eva, and Selena had mostly found success. Good careers, successful businesses, and large bank accounts. What they hadn’t found were lasting marriages, fulfilling relationships, and soul healing. And learning to manage their emotions to do so was proving to be harder than gaining success.

Silver didn’t know what depression was until the day she couldn’t get out of bed. Her life had pretty much been what she had envisioned until the day her husband announced that he was leaving her for another. It was all so confusing and conflicting. Would she ever be able to get past the anger, jealousy, and fear to be whole again?

Selena was no doubt a dime piece. She was beautiful. She had built a whole brand off her looks alone. Women admired her, and men wanted her, except the one man she wanted more than her good senses would allow. When would she learn where to draw the line when it came to pleasing another?

Jasmine had pretty much lived her life by the good book. She went to college, married, built a home, and then had a child. Her life was perfect, and she had no problem letting others know. What she didn’t do was prepare herself for a daughter who would taint that perfect image. Just how was she supposed to get past her pride so she could help her child who needed her more than ever?

Eva didn’t like weakness, foolishness, or wastefulness. She knew her strengths and being vulnerable wasn’t one of them. She was tough, but she had a heart that she wanted to share with another. Ignoring her fears, she takes a chance at love, only to feel the familiar sting of rejection again. Did her success mean a life of loneliness?

Author A. L. Wicker has enjoyed reading, writing, and storytelling since she was a young child. Being raised by her grandparents as the only child allotted author A. L. Wicker a lot of time to get lost in her imagination. To this day, she still enjoys getting lost in imagination and creating characters that pull from the many people, places, and events that she has been graced to experience. Putting her imagination down on paper so that others can enjoy it is one of her biggest dreams come true.

A. L. Wicker takes readers into her story, writing, “I haven’t left my house in 13 days. The majority of those days, I’ve been in my bed, without enough energy to drag myself out of it. I haven’t eaten, washed, or so much as brushed my teeth. I’ve turned off my cell phone, shut down my computer, and pulled down all the window shades. I’m not sick, just drained. Nope, this isn’t the norm for me; as a matter of fact, I’ve never felt so drained before in my life. I’m usually up and on my way to the gym before starting my day around 6:30 a.m. Afterward, I would come home make breakfast and chat with my husband while having that breakfast about our family’s business, twin daughters, and our plans for that evening. I would then run a few errands before heading into our family’s business where I served as the CFO, COO, and CEO; it just depended on what the workload required. While there, I would call my daughters and hound them about taking care of their responsibilities. Then I would take off to meet my three best friends since high school, Eva, Jasmine, and Selena for lunch.”

Published by Fulton Books, A. L. Wicker’s book invites readers to get to know Silver, Jasmine, Eva, and Selena as they journey through life together.

Readers who wish to experience this captivating work can purchase “Shifting Emotions” at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes store, Amazon, Google Play, or Barnes & Noble.

With Christmas Just Around the Corner, Now is the Time to Get the Kids’ Gifts Sorted

While the holiday season is a time of joy, it can also be stressful trying to get everything organised. Experts agree, getting in early and organising presents early will help take the hassle out of Christmas.

CHRISTCHURCH, New Zealand – November 4, 2022 – (Newswire.com)

Juggling a long list of preparations, gift shopping and the kids being home on school holidays can be particularly stressful for parents over the Christmas period. New Zealand’s premium trampoline online supplier, SpaceJump recommends parents beat the crowds to ensure they don’t miss out on the special gifts the kids really want.

Rather than purchasing lots of smaller gifts for the family, a combined gift for everyone is a great idea for families with more than one child. A trampoline is always a winner with kids at Christmas and as an added bonus, a trampoline encourages the whole family to spend time together outside. A combined gift also takes the pressure off thinking about what to get each child too.

Offering a range of high quality, safety focused trampolines at affordable prices, SpaceJump explains that typically there is a rush in the few weeks prior to Christmas as many people leave their gift shopping to the last minute. Purchasing big ticket items early will help families avoid the stress of worrying whether there will be stock or the order can be delivered on time. Experts say it’s a good idea to sign up to receive email offers and other promotional material from various companies throughout the year to be the first to know about special offers, which can offer families big savings.

When a large item, such as a trampoline is the hero gift for the kids at Christmas, parents also need to factor in time to assemble the product. SpaceJump provides detailed assembly instructions for customers to make the set up easier and recommends a minimum of two people for the assembly.

On a mission to inspire active outdoor play for kids, the SpaceJump team are experts in the industry and are committed to providing the safest products. Striking the perfect balance of safety and fun without compromising on gravity-defying bounce, shop for the best trampoline NZ wide online at SpaceJump today to ensure no family member is disappointed on Christmas Day.

Sparr Heights Estates Receives Company’s First-Ever Electric Bus

VANCOUVER, Wash. – November 3, 2022 – (Newswire.com)

Sparr Heights Estates, a Sinceri Senior Living Community based in Montrose, California, received the company’s first-ever electric bus on Friday, Oct. 14. The delivery of the bus included a ribbon cutting and celebration amongst the staff and residents, who were able to give the vehicle a test ride.

The electric bus is a large feat for the community as they move toward cleaner and more efficient energy. Electric vehicles emit fewer greenhouse gasses and air pollutants and contribute positively to local air quality.

The bus is a 2022 Ford E-Transit, which offers exclusive features, including a fully electric engine, smart technology, and an average range of 126 miles per trip. This all-electric vehicle will allow the community to charge it on-site, reduce the costs of traveling operations, and decrease their CO2 emissions significantly.

In addition, there will be an estimated 40% lower cost versus comparable buses that operate using gasoline. It also requires less maintenance, fewer moving parts, and eliminates the need for oil changes. The bus charges within 8-11 hours, which will allow Sparr Heights Estates to charge it overnight and be ready for traveling activities every day.

Rachel Rudiger, Sinceri’s V.P. of Environmental Operations, stated, “Sinceri Senior Living is plugging into the future—and the future is electric. In addition to the environmental benefits of our first zero-emissions community van at Sparr Heights Estates, going electric will reduce the ongoing maintenance and preventative care substantially.”

The electric bus is the first step in taking part in California’s ambitious goals on climate change, petroleum reduction, adoption of zero-emission vehicles, and renewable fuels. California’s Clean Transportation Program, which was established in 2007, then extended to 2024, plays a vital role in supporting the state’s sustainable, long-term, economic development. Sparr Heights Estates, as well as Sinceri Senior Living, are looking forward to active participation in the program and continuing to expand into sustainable energy solutions.

Sinceri Senior Living is a premier, senior living management company that provides service to seniors in 21 states, serving approximately 3,800 seniors across the U.S. Sinceri Senior Living manages all levels of care, including independent living, assisted living, memory care, and skilled nursing communities.

Ten Athletes Named to First-Ever USA Blind Soccer Men’s National Team

The roster includes eight athletes with visual impairments and two sighted goalkeepers.

Ten Athletes Named to First-Ever USA Blind Soccer Men’s National Team

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. – November 3, 2022 – (Newswire.com)

The U.S. Association of Blind Athletes (USABA) today announced the 10 athletes chosen for the first-ever USA Blind Soccer Men’s National Team that will begin international competition in 2023, the first step on the journey to competing at the Los Angeles 2028 Paralympic Games. The team was selected after a four-day selection camp held Oct. 27-30 in Chula Vista, Calif. The roster features eight athletes with visual impairments along with two sighted goalkeepers.

The sport of blind soccer has been part of the Paralympic Games since 2004, but the U.S. has never fielded a team. That will all change in 2028 when Los Angeles plays host to the Olympic and Paralympic Games and the U.S. will receive an automatic entry into the blind soccer competition as the host country.

“In the next six years, the world’s two biggest sporting events will happen on American soil,” said USABA CEO Molly Quinn. “In 2026, the FIFA World Cup will be played throughout the U.S. for the first time in three decades. In 2028, the Summer Olympic and Paralympic Games will take place in Los Angeles. It will mark the first time that L.A. has played host to the Paralympic Games.”

The eight athletes with visual impairments named to the team are Noah Beckman (Columbus, Ohio), Cody Kirchner (Columbia, S.C.), Ahmed Shareef (Staten Island, N.Y.), Ricardo Castaneda (Fort Worth, Texas), Kevin Brown (Falls Church, Va.), Antoine Craig (Richmond, Va.), David Brown (Chula Vista, Calif.) and Alvaro Mora Arellano (Phoenix, Ariz.). The two sighted goalkeepers selected are Brandt Herron (Palm Coast, Fla.) and Kyle Knott (Brevard, N.C.).

“We are so excited to name the first ever USA Blind Soccer Men’s National Team,” said Head Coach Katie Smith. “It was incredible to see the growth of the athletes at this first national selection camp. It is truly incredible being a part of this revolutionary team and to have another Paralympic sport for blind athletes all over the country to aspire toward. I look forward to seeing how this National Team progresses toward our goal of the 2028 Paralympics.”

Alternates for the USA Blind Soccer Men’s National Team are John Marquez (Fort Worth, Texas) and Charles Catherine (Brooklyn, N.Y.). The team will begin competing in international friendlies in 2023.
