We’ve got some big news! Rumors have been circulating for a while that a By The Book book may be in the works, and friends, we're telling you here and now: The rumors are true! We've written a book called "How To Be Fine: What We Learned From Living By The Rules of 50 Self-Help Books."

Want to be on a new show with Kristen and Jolenta? Read on!

Kristen and Jolenta are working on a brand new podcast!!! If you’ve ever wanted to go on your own self-help journey, record your own audio diaries, and chat with Kristen and Jolenta, then pay attention.

We are currently searching for guests (based in the New York metro area) who are struggling with a problem: a new mom moving to a new city, worried about making new friends; a teen on the verge of heading to college, dealing with a ton of uncertainties; someone getting back to dating again after a breakup; someone hoping to move up the career ladder, or change their career altogether; someone puzzling over whether to get a (new) pet; or something else!

We’re not doctors, so we aren’t taking on problems that involve life or death, that deal with psychological issues, or anything that would really be best handled by a medical professional.

If you or someone you know is interested in giving this a try, fill out our Google Form.

Hello! We are so thrilled you want to participate in our new podcast, We Love You (And So Can You)! This survey will help us plan our show, and get to know you a bit more. Some of these questions will have nothing to do with your particular question. This information is for our internal knowledge, a...
