Body Shaming, Social Media, Bullying And The Drive To Be Best - Selfie Filmmaker Barbara Becker Holstein Interviewed By Asbury Park Press

Dr. Holstein, a psychologist/filmmaker and originator of a unique Selfie Film concept, writes award-winning books, plays and produces short films that offer solutions to problems that impact today's teens and tweens

Barbara Becker Holstein, Positive Psychologist and multi-award winning selfie filmmaker, was recently interviewed by Asbury Park Press. The Asbury Park Press, a part of the USA Today network, is a daily newspaper in Monmouth and Ocean counties of New Jersey and has the third largest circulation in the state. In that interview she talked about her beginnings, her vision for selfie films, and taking "The Selfie Project" to the next level. During the interview, (available at both her site and Asbury Park Press, she stated in part:

Q: What surprised you the most about running the business?

Holstein: That there were no other psychologists really on the same path. I was alone as a psychologist/filmmaker focusing on Selfies as Film.

Q: Describe your most unusual customer, job or work experience.

Holstein: Each step out of the treatment room: most recently, “The Selfie Project,” which is taking the thoughts, feelings and concerns of tweens and teens into account. A pilot show is in development. Recently on a podcast show out at Shared Universe Podcasting in Eatontown, I was interviewed by C.J. Cullen, developer of Hang on to Your Shorts Film Festival. Megan Brown, the actress in a number of my films and also participating in 'The Selfie Project', was with me. Our thoughts about the positive use of Selfies slid out into the universe as if by magic.

Q: How would you like the business to grow and change?

Holstein:I would like Enchanted Self Productions to be nationally known. I would like every school and library to have copies of my books, and access to the related films. I would like to develop more related products. I want to continue “The Selfie Project” to help youngsters more clearly express their emotions in safe ways.

Q: In one sentence, tell us why customers should go there.

Holstein: All the projects and products of Enchanted Self Productions are catalysts for positive change for kids and adults.

The full interview is available at her website at http://www.selfiefilmmakers.com/interviews and at Asbury Park Press.

Dr. Holstein is currently developing "The Selfie Project" to help kids share their feelings and thoughts in a meaningful way via Selfies that can reach millions. "The Selfie Project" provides a way for young people to go public on a number of subjects. Bullying is real, school violence is real, drama because of social media is real for kids.'The Selfie Project' is giving voice to those subjects. A pilot TV show is in the development phase. Teens will have a chance to discuss via their Selfies and in discussion with Dr. Holstein, various topics that affect their lives, including friend drama, fear of assault weapons, opioids, feelings of anxiety and depression, issues around teenage suicide and more.

Book Reviews Now Offered By LM Book Review For Traditional And Self Publishers Authors

LM Book Review Service offers professional level, honest and trustworthy book reviews of both print books and ebooks.

LM Book Review has announced a new book review service for authors of most genres. They provide reviews for both traditionally published and self published authors.

Book reviews play an important role with diverse groups of people. These include readers, who may give weight to a book review when deciding whether to take a change on an unfamiliar author. They are also important to industry professionals such as publishers, agents, publicists, marketing professionals and journalists. While it has been said books can judged by their cover, it is much more likely that they are judged by the reviews the book has received.

Reviews from other authors, industry friends or family members usually mean very little to these decision makers. Real reviews are often hard to come by and, in today's "pay to play" environment, can often cost more than an independent author can afford. Most authors are very aware of the difficulty in getting readers to post reviews.

A professional level book review is a qualified opinion that, while subjective, offers insight into the quality and content of a particular work. A review means little if it's not unbiased and trustworthy.

LM Book Review has solved those problems. The company offers professional level, honest and trustworthy reviews with short turnaround times and exemplary service.

LM Book Review's quality reviews are produced by professionals who have been in the business for many years and are themselves writers. They understand and respect the hard work and long hours that go into writing a book.

The company offers three levels of service - a standard review and two expedited plans.

Authors and publishers can submit books for consideration at the LM Book Review site at http://www.lmbookreview.com. The company does not guarantee that books submitted will be accepted for review. Those submitting books will be notified by email if a book is accepted. LM Book Review makes every effort to respond as soon as possible within a reasonable time frame. Questions should be submitted via email at lindam@lmbookreview.com.

Author And Keynote Speaker Rocky Romanella Of 3SIXTY Management Services Announces Forbes Interview, New Theory Magazine Article

A highly sought Keynote Speaker and Business Leadership Trainer, Romanella is founder and principal of 3SIXTY Management Services, LLC. He has over 40 years of leadership at Fortune 100's and most recently served as Chief Executive Officer and Director for UniTek Global Services, after retiring from a 36-year career with UPS.

Author and keynote speaker Rocky Romanella, principal of 3SIXTY Management Services LLC, was featured in a Forbes interview with Alastair Dryburgh. In that interview he stressed that we must avoid the trap of turning strength into weakness.

In the interview, Romanella stated, "For me, one of the keys to growth is not allowing your strengths to become your weaknesses. It’s important to use these strengths as appropriate, but not rely on them to the point of complacency. Sometimes when you overplay that hand, what ends up happening is that you stop at the first right answer. You must challenge yourself and your people to not stop at the first right answer even though it may be a right answer and, in your strength, and comfort zone. You must push through that first right answer to get breakthrough thinking.

"One of the things that happens when we do that, which I think is the transformative piece, is that you start to see yourself as a solutions provider not an order taker. When you're a solutions provider you address your customers differently."

Rocky will also be a contributor for New Theory Magazine. New Theory Magazine is an online platform for forward thinkers. It provides readers with exclusive access into the minds of thought leaders covering inspirational content such as business, health, fitness, hot topics and much more.

As a contributor, Rocky's goal is to challenge readers to think of their businesses and their relationships with key constituents in new ways. This approach has helped him shape simple yet thought-provoking lessons into tangible results. He constantly challenges himself and others to not stop at the first right answer, to look past that first “right answer” in the management of day-to-day operations.

In Romanella's business leadership book, 'Tighten the Lug Nuts: The Principles of Balanced Leadership', he uses his Executive Business Leadership experiences to explore the ways a true leader can add value as a trusted advisor, mentor, and visionary who uses a process approach to lead the organization and its people to new levels of success.

In an engaging, personal, and witty style, Romanella details his Balanced Leadership approach, which details how to give your three major constituents equal priority in your decision-making process through actively listening to their needs and building strong relationships. By following the steps Romanella lays out, readers can truly learn the importance of Balanced Leadership.

In honor of a great leader and coach who cultivated breakthrough performances from his teams, for every purchase of 'Tighten the Lug Nuts', 3SIXTY will donate $1 to Victory Over Cancer, a charitable organization co-founded by former North Carolina State Basketball Coach Jim Valvano. This important organization is dedicated to saving lives by helping to find a cure for cancer. A donation will also be made for each new Training Engagement or Motivational Keynote and in appreciation for those who sign up to receive 3SIXTY’s newsletter. The book, which has numerous five-star Amazon ratings, is an ideal Father's Day gift.

As part of its training offering, the 3SIXTY team can incorporate 'Tighten the Lug Nuts' as a foundation for a variety of group training sessions to help teams of any size become more transformative in their thinking. The 3SIXTY business leadership training team brings decades of experience to their partners to tailor comprehensive leadership development curriculums that can propel forward any organization. A no-charge assessment form is available at the 3SIXTY Management Services website.

Romanella is available for speaking engagements and media interviews. He can be contacted using the information below or by email at rockyromanella@gmail.com. 'Tighten The Lug Nuts' is available at book outlets everywhere. More information on 3SIXTY Management Services is available at the company's website at http://www.3sixtymanagementservices.com.

Rocky is an experienced CEO who led one of the largest rebranding initiatives in franchising history – The UPS Store, revolutionizing the $9 billion retail shipping and business services market.
