Don’t Wear Shoes You Can’t Walk In

Written for anyone just starting out or suddenly starting over, this field guide--part advice book, part journal--will help you discover the very important yet not so obvious lessons to be learned in early adulthood. In these pages, Michelle Douglas shares learnings from her own life and ten-year journaling practice alongside thought-provoking prompts with valuable lessons like . . .

• The weakness isn't necessarily where the leak is
• Surround yourself with people who are willing to lift while they climb 
• You can't change the shape of a piece to force it into your puzzle 
• Don't go looking for love, go looking for things you love to do 
• It's what you bring to the table, not how long you've been sitting at it 

Don’t Wear Shoes You Can’t Walk In equips every twentysomething (and beyond) with powerful tools to enrich their life and take their next steps forward with confidence.
