I love that your book isn’t about “fixing” anyone. It’s practical and poetic, a way to reflect instead of spiraling into existential panic. At page 3 . . . I think my nervous system just sighed in relief.

Yours to use in whatever ways suit you: pick it up, set it down, mull it over. The reward of curious, courageous self-exploration is being more comfortable in your own skin and more skilled with others. I’m grateful for this resource to use personally and professionally.

Other writers urge us to embrace, challenge, follow, dissect, honor, or control our feelings. As a developmental psychologist, Dr. Gregg skillfully tracks our five innate emotions into the nuanced and confusing array of the full adult experience we face. This book gives us a clear direction. It serves as a field guide to human emotions, in simple terms.

I reached for this book with the intention of adding it to my toolbox when I feel called to encourage others. I quickly was enthralled with the self-study design. Digging into myself, I feel lighter and brighter towards others, benefitting them as well. I strongly encourage you to try this in your own circle as well.
