Bad Advice: Get Past the "Inspirational" Wisdom That Holds You Back and Unlock Your Inner Awesome
Autor Venus Nicolinoen Limba Engleză CD-Audio – 2 oct 2018
On WE TV, Bravo, and her popular Your Daily Dose of Dr. V. YouTube channel, psychologist Dr. Venus Nicolino takes a blowtorch to what she calls the useless neo-folk wisdom of pop psychology, a.k.a. bad advice. Dr. V. explains how ubiquitous sayings, such as follow your bliss and you can't love anyone until you love yourself, seem to offer deep insight but are actually misguided. In Bad Advice, Dr. V. pairs humor, hard science, and heart to offer a psychological course-correction like no other.
Simultaneously irreverent and smart, Bad Advice traces an arc from our biology as animals to our shared history as a species to understand how these common misperceptions became cultural truths. Dr. V. explores a true murderer's row of pop-psych BS, including such renowned hits as:
You get what you get and you don't get upset;You can't love anyone until you love yourself;Live each day like it was your last; andNobody can make you feel bad without your permission.Combining the brains and insight of a PhD with the heart of an Italian matriarch-and a Philadelphia cab driver's facility with profanity-Dr. V. illuminates the origins of each piece of bad advice, deconstructs what makes it so compelling, and explains why it is misguided, replacing every aspect with grounded and field-tested strategies that truly work. Infused with humor and her trademark glamorous heart-sense, Bad Advice doesn't offer a one-size-fits-all answer to life's problems-it empowers readers to find their own.
