หนังสือ Big Feelings: How to Be Okay When Things Are Not Okay ของ Liz Fosslien and Mollie West Duffy - การรับมือกับห้วงของอารมณ์ที่ถาโถมมายังที่ตัวเรา จำเป็นจะต้องรับมือด้วยสติสัมปชัญญะ แล้วเราจะเริ่มควบคุมอารมณ์ได้ - สังคมสมัยนี้พยายามหากิจกรรมที่หลีกเลี่ยงอารมณ์ที่ขุ่นเคือง แต่ปรากฏว่าเราไม่สามารถรับมือกับอารมณ์ได้ยิ่งกว่าเดิม เพียงเพราะเรามักจะหนีมันตลอด - ไม่มีใครที่ไม่เคยพบเจอสิ่งเลวร้ายในชีวิต เราก็คือคนหนึ่งที่สามารถประสบพบเจอได้เช่นกัน ความเป็นปกตินั้นมีหลากหลายแบบมาก ไม่ต้องคิดว่าเราผิดปกติอะไร - เราไม่จำเป็นต้องรู้สึกดีตลอดเวลาก็ได้ แย่บ้างจะเป็นอะไรไป ลองคิดใหม่ทำใหม่ดู บางสิ่งในชีวิตมันเข้ามาเพื่อให้เราได้เรียนรู้เท่านั้น ทั้งสุขและทุกข์ไม่มีอะไรตลอดไป - ทั้งนี้ วันใดเรารู้สึกว่าเราไม่มีความสุขเหมือนคนอื่นเขา ให้เราลองงดการเสพสื่อโซเชียลดู เพราะบางทีอารมณ์เราก็เสพติดการดูสิ่งดี ๆ ของผู้คนในสังคม

What fuels your relationship with work? When you're not working, what comes up for you? The compulsion to work can arise from various fears and drivers. Whether we are driven by perfectionism, tie our productivity to our worth, or use work to distract ourselves from other powerful demons such as shame, the spell of hustle culture can be hard to shake. In this podcast, we're sharing Ali's second conversation with Liz Fosslien and Mollie West Duffy, authors of Big Feelings: How to Be Okay When Things Are Not Okay. Together, they explore why detaching from work can be so incredibly hard and ponder why separating our identity from our work is so difficult. They get honest about the stories and fears that fuel their own desires to overwork and illuminate how joyful pursuits can mitigate the compulsion to overwork when life gets stressful.

Liz Fosslien and Mollie West Duffy, creators of the popular Instagram account @lizandmollie, return to the show to discuss their new book, Big Feelings: How to Be Okay When Things Are Not Okay, a follow-up to their last book, No Hard Feelings: The Secret Power of Embracing Emotions at Work. Liz and Mollie join to give us some tips to deal with complicated and hard feelings, and take your calls to give advice.
The past two-plus years have been defined by uncertainty and upheaval—so it's safe to say that we've been having some feels. Specifically, big feelings—feelings like anger, despair, and burnout, all of which are often pegged as “negative” or “bad.” We tell ourselves lots of stories about these emotions: that we should be strong enough to override them; that our feelings are more intense than others'; and that they have individual (versus structural) solutions. But in the new book Big Feelings: How to Be Okay When Things Are Not Okay, co-authors Mollie West Duffy and Liz Fosslien rewrite that narrative. According to them, the more we can name and understand our toughest emotions, the more we can use them to fuel larger-scale transformation. In this episode, we chat with Mollie about why becoming more feelings fluent in the workplace is critical for realizing a more human future of work.

When Liz Fosslien and Mollie West Duffy pitched their second book, Big Feelings: How to Be Okay When Things Are Not Okay, to their publisher in January 2020, the authors were met with questions about its relevance. Fast forward six months (and three months into a new and terrifying global pandemic), and the publisher recognized this was, in fact, a very relevant book to publish. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out why. In these turbulent times, with millions participating in The Great Resignation, new Covid variants emerging every few months, derailing our collective plans to move on, and many dealing with the grief they've experienced from the loss of loved ones to the virus, Big Feelings couldn't have come at a better time. Liz Fosslien, the co-author and illustrator stopped by Left to Our Own Devices to dig deep into big feelings. On this episode, Liz and Erica discuss the new book, how to express selective vulnerability (aka, bringing your most appropriate self to work), the importance of being intentional and taking time to connect and check in with colleagues, and how to introduce more stability into our teams during ever-changing times. Liz also offers two salient examples from Humu and IDEO on how to onboard in ways that will give new hires a sense of psychological safety as well as permission to bring their human to work.Big Feelings: How to Be Okay When Things Are Not Okay, by Liz Fosslien and Mollie West Duffy is out today!

We talk about this a lot in the context of leadership. And we have a practice that we call selective vulnerability. So it's really, how do you balance sharing, which builds trust and does bring teams together and increases performance over the short and long run, but you also can't really over share, right? It is still a workplace context and especially if you're leading a team, part of your role is to create stability and clarity for that team.”“I have emotions, some of them are really, really difficult. You will have them too, that's perfectly okay. But as your leader, I'm still thinking about how to make sure we're all okay together in the future.”“I will say, I am an introvert. My job involves a lot of writing and thinking, so I personally love working from home. I think back on being in an open-office floor plan, and it boggles my mind how I got anything done ever because it's so overstimulating. So I think the keys are, when you are in person, really prioritizing relationship building and connection and seeing that as how you're going to perform better in the long term.”“I've learned to take a deep breath and say, ‘Okay, we should have that five minutes [at the beginning of a meeting] just to check in with one another. And it actually makes the call much, much nicer. So I think it just requires you to be more intentional and have the moment of, ‘What do I want out of this meeting, what is my goal in connecting with this person, and then how can I structure the next 30 minutes to make that happen.'”“Somehow I always forget how restorative it is to just step away from my computer and walk outside. And I'm lucky enough to live in California, where that's an option year round. It's like, wow, being outside in the sun for five minutes has this huge impact, and I'm just always not doing it!?”On Humu's onboarding: “[Laszlo Bock] was like, ‘Hey, this is your first day, and I just want to reinforce that the interview—the audition is over. You're not auditioning anymore. You're here and we want you to grow and learn and ask a lot of questions. You're going to make mistakes, but you don't need to be worried about your position—that part is over.'”“The audition is over! We're so excited you're here, you're bringing all these valuable skills to the team. Please lean into your abilities—that's why we hired you.”“The 7 emotional states [from the book]: are uncertainty, comparison, anger, burnout, perfectionism, despair, and regret.”Links to Websites or Resources, text numbers email signupsOrder Liz and Mollie's book, Big Feelings, out nowLiz and Mollie's websiteLiz's websiteErica's websiteOrder Erica's book, Rituals RoadmapOrder Erica's book, Bring Your Human to WorkText ‘human' to 66866 to sign up for Erica's newsletter where she shares how to honor relationships well and how to bring your human to work and life.
