SHOWING UP:
A Comprehensive Guide to Comfort & connection
By Jen Marr, Founder & CEO of Inspiring Comfort, LLC
With Skye Quinn, TIME
Foreword by Dr. John Draper, Director of the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline, Vibrant
How do we “show up” for coworkers, friends, classmates, family, acquaintances, and even strangers when we are all struggling?
Experts in the mental health field are recognizing that we do indeed need each other. We can’t self-care our way out of this. It takes intentional connection – the reciprocal relationships within our homes, workplaces, schools, neighborhoods, and communities — to ultimately bring about our emotional resilience.
Showing Up breaks it all down. It uncovers the behaviors that get us off track and outlines the science of how human care works. It equips individuals, leaders, and organizations to break through the Awkward Zone™ so that people in your life know that you care. Filled with evidence-based tools and strategies, as well as touching stories, this book is a guide to bringing strength and hope to others and ourselves.
