If you want to change your world, try changing your stories; the ones you tell about yourselves and the ones you listen to.
Amidst the millions of stories we can choose from today, we try to find those that help define our world. And we live forever finding and seeking happiness. Do we find it?
The theme of first issue; aim2019 is Stories.
With very little quality publications on parenting older children and early teenagers, aim2019 will be of value to you and your families. With content contribution from at least a dozen prolific, original voices, designed in a gorgeous, reader-friendly package (with ZERO commercial message or intent), aim2019 promises to be an entertaining, enriching and endearing conversation.
Get set for thought-provoking insights from modern research and traditional wisdom, and perspective-widening stories from personal experiences. 'aim2019' puts parents and families at the center and explores relationships through stories, myths and modern research.
'Stories shape our worlds'. 'We are not just born into stories but actually are born from the stories.' 'One who tells stories, controls the world'. And so the bonus in aim2019 is a feature on 'Storytelling'.
