    “Book Descriptions: In Failosophy: a handbook for when things go wrong, Elizabeth Day, author of How to Fail, and creator of the award-winning podcast, brings together all the lessons she has learned from her own life, from conversations with her podcast guests – including Malcolm Gladwell, Phoebe Waller-Bridge, Lemn Sissay, Nigel Slater, Emeli Sande, Meera Syal, Dame Kelly Holmes, Andrew Scott and many, many more – and from meeting readers and listeners who have shared their stories with her.

    She has distilled all this precious material into seven key principles of failure:

    1. Failure just is
    2. You are not your worst thoughts.
    3. Almost everyone feels they’ve failed at their 20s.
    4. Break-ups are not a tragedy
    5. Failure is data acquisition
    6. There is no such thing as a future you
    7. Being open about your vulnerabilities is the ultimate act of strength

    Practical, inspirational and with carefully selected quotes from the podcast guests, who have insights into everything from failed exams, romantic break-ups and how to cope with severe anxiety, Failosophy is the essential guide for turning our failures into our successes, and the equivalent of having a chat with a good friend who wants to make you feel better.”
