Kristen Meinzer Volgorde van de boeken

This humorous and insightful exploration delves into the effectiveness of self-help advice, crafted by the co-hosts of the popular podcast By the Book. In each episode, Jolenta Greenberg and Kristen Meinzer rigorously follow the instructions of various self-help books, tackling topics from diet and productivity to social interactions. They document their experiences and share valuable lessons with their growing audience. In their synthesis, they reflect on what has worked, what hasn't, and propose philosophies for deeper exploration. Key topics include disconnecting from devices, positive self-talk, downsizing, admitting dishonesty, meditation, emotional awareness, and therapy. Initially, Jolenta was hopeful about self-help, while Kristen remained skeptical, but their contrasting views have sparked both humor and meaningful discussions. Over time, they've discovered that their podcast has profoundly impacted their lives. Kristen has pursued her dream of writing an Amish romance novel, revisited past experiences, and engaged in tough marital discussions. Jolenta has memorized her husband's phone number, improved her financial tracking, and embraced minimalism. This book serves as a heartfelt blend of memoir and practical advice, resembling a candid conversation with wise friends.
