Nobody taught us how to be grown-ups with feelings.
We learned how to show up to work, pay bills, drive a car and pretend we're fine—but somehow we were also expected to know what to do when we're overwhelmed, angry, anxious, rejected, overstimulated or one tiny inconvenience away from losing our shit.
HOW TO HAVE FEELINGS WITHOUT LOSING YOUR SHIT is a funny, compassionate and practical guide to emotional regulation for grown-ups who are still figuring it out.
With the unmistakable humor and encouragement of The Positivity Princess, this book helps you recognize what you're feeling, notice what your body may be telling you, calm yourself before reacting, identify what you actually need, communicate more clearly, set boundaries, repair mistakes and try again.
Inside you'll find grown-up resets, emotional check-ins, practical calming tools, relatable real-life situations and plenty of reminders that having big feelings doesn't make you difficult, dramatic or bad at being an adult.
You don't have to stop having feelings.
You just need better tools for what to do when they show up.
Regulate first. Deal with the problem second
