Big Feelings

We all experience unwieldy feelings. But between our emotion-phobic society and the debilitating uncertainty of modern times, we usually don't know how to talk about what we're going through, much less handle it. Over the past year, Liz and Mollie's online community has laughed and cried about productivity guilt, pandemic anxiety and Zoom fatigue. Big Feelings addresses anyone intimidated by oversized feelings they can't predict or control, offering the tools to understand what's really going on, find comfort and face the future with a sense of newfound agency. Weaving surprising science with personal stories and original illustrations, each chapter examines one uncomfortable feeling - like envy, burnout and anxiety - and lays out strategies for turning big emotions into manageable ones.
