HOW TO BE FINE: What we learned from living by the rules of 50 self-help books

Living by the rules of self-help books for By the Book eventually led to Jolenta and her co-host Kristen writing a book about their experience for HarperCollins.

Part memoir, part prescriptive handbook, this honest, funny, and heartfelt guide is like a warm soul-baring conversation with your closest and smartest friends. In How to Be Fine, Jolenta and Kristen synthesize the lessons and insights they’ve learned from living by self-help books for their long-running podcast, and share their experiences with everyone. How to Be Fine is a thoughtful look at the books and practices that have worked, real talk on those that didn’t, and a list of philosophies they want to see explored in-depth.
