We've been conditioned to think that the most acceptable response to "How are you?" is, "I'm fine." But our emotions are much more complicated than that! Sometimes we feel a little annoyed, or elated, or afraid. And you know, that's okay!

In The Little Book of Big Feelings, Maureen "Marzi" Wilson takes us on a journey of self-acceptance and validation. After all, our emotions are only reactions to experiences that we can learn from; there's no such thing as a "bad" emotion. It's okay to be scared, it's alright to feel hopeful, and it's perfectly fine to feel both at the same time. There is a wide range of human emotions, and it's time we start embracing each one!
