Read Boys Don't Cry to navigate masculinity and mental health. This guide by Jamie Laing shares personal experiences for building happiness and connection. A British favourite for personal growth.
Product Information: When it comes to being a man, I think I'm still trying to work out how to be one I'm proud of, rather than the one society expects me to be.
Jamie Laing is still figuring it all out. And now that he's going to be a dad, he wants the tools to help his child through life so that they grow into a happy, thoughtful and kind person.
This is the handbook Jamie has put together for that purpose, with an easter egg to his unborn child found at the very end. In a world struggling to find genuine connection, Jamie wants to share his experiences of life, relationships and maturing. He takes us through his personal A-Z of growing up in today's society - from overcoming anxiety, checking in with your mates and working out what makes you happy, to embracing our failures, trying therapy and understand what it means to be a loving and present partner.
Above all, Jamie shows us that vulnerability is cool. And that boys do cry - after all, he's done plenty of that this year.
With contributions from his wife Sophie Habboo, this book will help men and women, boys and girls have the conversation of all conversations: how to be happy in today's world.
