In Joy Prescriptions, she offers a partmemoir, partselfhelp guide to stop chasing perfection and embrace gratitude and connection.As Tiffany explains, despite being a lifelong overachiever with a thriving career, she had a gorgeous home that she barely enjoyed. She had a closet full of nice things she bought to soothe herself, but she didnt feel soothed. She had a beautiful family that she didnt spend enough time with. She felt simultaneously grateful and stuck, successful but disappointed, happy but weary.Joy Prescriptions relates Tiffanys journey as a Chinese immigrant breaking through the expectations of being a perfectionist and building a new way of life based on laughter and the idea that true happiness is only possible when we let go of what other people want for us and live according to our own values. Her lessons include:Compare and Contrast: Competition can be healthy if it motivates you to do better, strive for greater goals, or try something new. But if you find that youre constantly caught up in the compareanddespair cycle, avoid comparing other peoples outside to your inside.Yes Woman: Sometimes as much as you try, some relationships arent meant to be. Remember that you dont have to be friends with everyone you meet.Joy Interrupted: Choose joy in the present day overreaching for some unattainable goal in the far future.If You Dont Laugh, Youll Cry: Everyone is going through their own problems. But what brings us together, what creates connection, is being able to laugh at ourselves together. Laughter is truly the best medicine and should be a part of any prescription to finding joy in life.It took a great deal of soul searching before Tiffany reached the conclusion that she needed to break out of the good girl mold and live for herself so that she could be completely present for others. Joy Prescriptions will inspire other womenparticularly those who feel constrained by the defined roles and expectations of othersto find the courage to take on new challenges and explore who they really are.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hachette Go","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47952714825973,"sku":"DADAX0306834537","price":13.08,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/5804\/8501\/files\/617260hf3ML.jpg?v=1775476284","url":"https:\/\/ergodebooks.com\/products\/joy-prescriptions-how-i-learned-to-stop-chasing-perfection-and-embrace-connection","provider":"Ergodebooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
