About this listen
New York Times Bestseller
If life were a house, then every room holds a story. What do we do when a room we’re in is no longer a room where we belong?
What do you do when you start to feel a shift and must decide if it’s time to make a change? When it comes to navigating big decisions about when to stay and go, how can we know for sure when the time is right? Though we enter and exit many rooms over the course of our life—jobs, relationships, communities, life stages—knowing how and when it’s time to leave is a decision that rarely has a clear answer.
Podcast host, spiritual director, and bestselling author of The Next Right Thing, Emily P. Freeman offers guidance to help us recognize when it’s time to move on from situations that no longer fit, allowing us to find new spaces where we can flourish and grow.
How to Walk Into a Room helps us begin to uncover the silent, nuanced, and hidden arrows for anyone asking questions like: How do I know if it’s time to move on? What if I stay and nothing changes? What if I leave and everything falls apart?
Through thought-provoking questions, spiritual practices, and personal stories, How to Walk into a Room will help you to know and name the caution flags in your current spaces, discern the difference between true peace and discomfort avoidance, navigate endings even when there is no closure, find peace for when you feel ready but it isn’t time, and courage for when it’s time but you don’t feel ready.
For anyone standing in a threshold, here’s a book to help discern the how, when, and what now of walking out of rooms and into new ones with peace, confidence, and a whole heart.

Story
Your autonomic nervous system is responsible for the constant but mostly subconscious communication between your brain and body. When you experience stress, anxiety, or trauma, your nervous system formulates responses to keep you alive. But you can also become trapped in survival mode if you’re consistently exposed to unsafe environments, toxic relationships, or destructive thought patterns. Mind-body practitioners Jen Mann and Karden Rabin now provide the first in-depth look at nervous system regulation, somatic therapy, Polyvagal theory, the vagus nerve, and the mind-body connection.

She is assured that 90 percent of Bell’s palsy patients experience a full recovery—like Ruhl’s own mother. But Sarah is in the unlucky ten percent. And for a woman, wife, mother, and artist working in theater, the paralysis and the disconnect between the interior and exterior brings significant and specific challenges.

Raised in a home where food was unstable and anger was the norm, Nicole learned that she needed to take charge of her own safety and security. So she did: She got into an elite private school by talking to a stranger in her dad’s cab, she strategized her way onto Wheel of Fortune to pay for college, she adopted three girls after meeting their mother panhandling, she quit her job to launch her own business, and she struggled.

Whether we like it or not, lots of things change as we age: our joints start to creak, our muscles weaken, and we lose coordination. Our bodies simply don’t look or perform the same each decade of life, and our risks for various diseases and medical conditions also increase as the years do. Getting old may be inevitable, but feeling old is not: we can age well and maximize each decade of life if we do the right things at the right time.

For a long time, scientists have wondered how life has emerged from inanimate chemistry, and whether Earth is the only place where it exists. Charles Darwin speculated about life on Earth beginning in a warm little pond. Some of his contemporaries believed that life existed on Mars. It once seemed inevitable that the truth would be known by now. It is not. For more than a century, the origins and extent of life have remained shrouded in mystery. But, as Mario Livio and Jack Szostak reveal in Is Earth Exceptional?, the veil is finally lifting.

In 15 short essays on subjects ranging from the mystery of dark matter and the infinity of pi to the resilience of trees and the intelligence of octopuses, Popova tells the stories of scientific searching and discovery. These stories are interwoven with details from the very real and human lives of scientists—many of them women, many underrecognized—and poets inspired by the same questions and the beauty they reveal.

Life changing conversation
This is a much needed book for anyone who has ever faced transition and change (EVERYONE). The gentle conversational approach leads you through a process that has the ability to shift your perspective on the rooms of your life and the transitions between them.
As someone who has had more than the average moves and life changes, I am so grateful for this new framework to walk into, out of, and between rooms with a new perspective.
Most recommended book on my list.

vulnerable wisdom
Emily's voice is both literally calming and important, and in a perspective-widening way, her worldview voice is also much needed.

Honest and Excellent
I greatly enjoyed this book, part careful advice & observation, and part memoir. I will listen to it again, start to finish. It’s a gem. Truly lovely. Although I’m not Christian, I am spiritual and very grateful I gave this book a try.

Emily is a treasure
This book is beautifully written and I loved it. With warmth and much depth, Emily walks us through the journey of entering and leaving the rooms of our lives with so much thought and relevance. As she introduces different insights and tools about how to think about staying and leaving, she invites us into her own coming and goings in such a kind and gentle way. We honor her journey and even if our rooms look different, we are inspired to think, to use the tools, and to grow. Thank you for this book. You are a treasure.

You haven’t wrecked it up.
What a perfect companion for walking through decision making in a time when making another decision seems so overwhelming. I loved the reminder that I couldn’t wreck all the things up by one decision. I am so grateful that Emily shares vulnerable and full of grace. Give us enough to see the ways she arrived to her own life and decisions and at the same time inspiring us to give a go. This book is a reminder to our withness with Jesus and with each other. We are not meant to walk alone and we can walk out of rooms when it’s time but always accompanied by our friend Jesus. Thank you Emily for leading us to listening to our lives and our bodies better than we have before.
