Description
Quarterlife: A Compassionate Roadmap for Finding Understanding, Happiness, and Wholeness in Early Adulthood
Many people in their twenties and thirties struggle with feelings of disorientation and discontent, despite seemingly having it all together. Satya Doyle Byock, a psychotherapist, has worked with numerous individuals in this stage of life, who are searching for meaning and direction. Byock offers a nuanced perspective on the challenges of early adulthood, and provides a compassionate guide to help navigate these emotions.
Byock's approach blends personal storytelling with mythology, Jungian psychology, and pop culture, to help us think about adult life in a new way. Through the stories of four of her clients, she shows how this search for meaning can start with the right questions, and how to find understanding, happiness, and wholeness in this critical stage of life.
