About this listen
Clinical psychologist and bestselling author Dr. Julie Smith (@drjulie) returns with this highly anticipated handbook full of “break in case of emergency” advice for dealing with mental health challenges in the moment they occur.
In this essential guide, Dr. Julie teaches her millions of readers and clients how to navigate life’s toughest occurrences while they’re happening, rather than moments or years after the fact. What if we can learn to harness our emotions and stay present so we can process and choose how to respond to a situation?
Picking up where Why Has Nobody Told Me This Before? leaves off, Dr. Julie shares the research-backed concepts and powerful skills we can use to weather our most vulnerable moments. Learn how to move through any situation with grace, including:
- When it’s hard to be with yourself: facing vulnerability alone, dealing with your inner critic, and handling imposter syndrome.
- When it’s hard to be with other people: dealing with betrayal and knowing what to do when you (or your parents) got it wrong.
- When it’s hard to be with your feelings: coping with loneliness, fear, and hopelessness
- When you’re healing from the past: getting out of a trauma response and learning how to stop ruminating about old events.
- When you’re looking to the future: preventing making the same mistakes, tackling uncertainty, and finding your path.
Open When teaches each of us to find and listen to the positive voice within when we need it most, and to care for our future selves and our mental health.

Real heartbreak is unmistakable. We think of nothing else. We feel nothing else. We care about nothing else. Yet while we wouldn't expect someone to return to daily activities immediately after suffering a broken limb, heartbroken people are expected to function normally in their lives, despite the emotional pain they feel. Now psychologist Guy Winch imagines how different things would be if we paid more attention to this unique emotion - if only we can understand how heartbreak works, we can begin to fix it.

Many of us comply much more than we realize. How many times have you wanted to object, disagree, or opt out of something but ended up swallowing your words, shaking your head, and just going along? Analyzing cases ranging from corporate corruption and sexual abuse to everyday acquiescence at work, the doctor’s office, and in our personal lives, award-winning organizational psychologist Dr. Sunita Sah delves deep into why the pressure to comply is a corrosive and often invisible force in our society.

My favorite line in my favorite song about Dallas goes like this: Dallas is a rich man with a death wish in his eyes / A steel and concrete soul in a warm heart and love disguise... The narrator of Jimmie Dale Gilmore's perfect tune Dallas" is coming to town as a broke dreamer with the bright lights of the big city on his mind. He's just seen the Dallas cityscape through the window of his seat on a DC-9 at night. Is he just beginning his quest?

Story
Ceremony is a collection for those on the cusp of becoming. It is a reminder that we were not meant to fit into this world perfectly, but to live in such a way that might forge a path all our own. It is a reminder that we are one with each other and nature itself. It is a reminder that we contain within us the latent potential of every future possibility we can conceive of. It is a reminder that we often must release what is not ours in order to receive what is, that we are all born with a unique imprint to leave upon the world, and that self-love is not an infatuation, but a homecoming.

Thank you for another excellent book!
I follow the author on social media and have learned so much from her!
I also read and listened to her previous book and enjoyed it. This book is at least as good as that one and offered me a lot of great insights. The reading pace is comfortable and easy to understand and the whole book is calming and insightful. I highly recommend it!

My goodness, Dr J out did her first book.
From the very start, the introduction with the explanation of why she wrote it, her decision to read it herself so that she could get it right, with her calm, empathetic, reassuring voice. She is brilliant. We are blessed she is so willing to share so much. She seems to have humility, an intact ego, along with a sincere enthusiasm for helping others. So many other authors offer broad philosophical ways to think, and very little practical guidance. Others want to tell you exactly what to do. Dr. Jay offers great guidance, based on real experience and training. She’s both a great writer and a great therapist.
