Experts in self-help book critiques, Jolenta and Kristen, discuss their experiences living by self-help advice, debunking myths and sharing what worked. They explore forgiveness, challenges in the self-help industry, and navigating overwhelming advice. The hosts bond over shared interests, explore solutions beyond the self, and dissect the impact of self-talk on mental well-being.
This week Kat is joined by not one but two guests, Jolenta Greenberg and Kristen Meinzer. Jolenta and Kristen both consider themselves advice critics. They spent years living by and critiquing advice from self-help books for their podcast By The Book and now they’re ready to discuss wellness-related questions and help debunk all the self-help myths and promises in their new podcast, How To Be Fine which premiered on February 23rd. In this episode, Kat, Jolenta, & Kristen talk about their experiences- what they thought was all BS, what they learned, what worked, and what was just weird.
