NPR's Book of the Day - In ‘Big Feelings:’ Advice on how to be okay… when things are not okay

The last couple of years have been tough for everyone, and dealing with the plethora of emotions they have brought on can be complicated for many adults.

In an interview with Juana Summers on It's Been a Minute, the authors talk about how they don't intend the book to be self-help, but rather an invitation for people to learn how to give themselves some grace.
