I loved reading this book, and now I'm looking for something with a similar feel - any recommendations? In general I like memoir, psychology, self help.

Ughhh I loved this book so much. I also really enjoyed Furiously Happy, Tina Fey’s Bossypants and Mindy Kaling’s books. Also enjoyed Moment of Lift and Becoming. All are memoirs / life stories and have some element of self help or inspiration.

Check out the podcast “By the Book”
The two hosts read and then follow a different self help book each episode and while it’s more about humor than self help they’ve covered dozens of books you may be interested in.

Is it little memoirs?

The book is a memoir of the therapist but she tells the stories of a few patients interwoven as she tells her own story. It's just so good, highly recommend!

Hello folks, I’m after some advice please. I recently bought a couple of indoor plants and added to the cart what I think is a very expensive bottle of natural mist to use on the leaves. All organic, glass bottle etc. supposed to use it 2-3 times per week but 2 weeks in I’m down to half a bottle and it was £15 (approx $20). I understand that I need to nurture the plants but it strikes me as a rather expensive mist. Is there anything you’d recommend I can use instead? Thanks.

So I’m in industry from big 4, and a colleague with same yoe comes from MBB. High paying tech firm. I think I work harder and produce quality content at speed, but they can hold executive conversations that tend to impress senior stakeholders.
