The Bittersweet Truth About Beauty, Sorrow, and What Makes Life Worth Living with Susan Cain

Hey friends, Eric here with some exciting news. I've been writing a book and it's about to be out in the world in April of 2026. The working title is How a Little Becomes a Lot and it's all about how small consistent actions, the kind that we talk about all the time on this show, can lead to real meaningful change. Right now the book is in the editing process and there's still some shaping to do, which is where you come in. I'd love your input on what to focus on, how to talk about the book, even what it should be called.

If you've got a few minutes and a couple thoughts on what would make this book most helpful for you, I'd be really grateful to hear them. Just head to oneyoufeed.net slash book survey. You'll also get early updates, fun giveaways, and a behind-the-scenes look at what it actually takes to make a book. Editing marathons, title debates, existential spirals, and me questioning all of my life choices at 2 a.m. over one stubborn sentence.

Again, that's oneyoufeed.net slash book survey. Thank you so much for being part of this. Your feedback really means a lot to me, truly. The same thing that can, when it's not working right, predispose us to anxiety and depression is the very thing that can bring us to our highest and deepest selves. Welcome to the One You Feed.
