From the creators of the bestselling No Hard Feelings and the popular LizandMollie Instagram comes an insightful illustrated guide to navigating our most challenging emotions. In a society that often shies away from discussing feelings, many of us struggle to articulate our experiences, especially in these uncertain times. Liz Fosslien and Mollie West Duffy's online community has shared laughter and tears over issues like productivity guilt, pandemic anxiety, and Zoom fatigue. This guide addresses those overwhelmed by intense emotions, offering tools to understand and manage them effectively. Each chapter focuses on a specific uncomfortable feeling—such as envy, burnout, and anxiety—providing strategies to transform these emotions into manageable ones. Readers will discover how to break the cycle of intrusive thoughts linked to regret, identify the roots of their anger for productive communication, and recognize the impact of perfectionism on self-worth. Ultimately, this work reassures us that difficult emotions are not abnormal and that we can emerge from them with greater meaning. While we can't prevent emotions from surfacing, we can learn to coexist with them peacefully.
