We know how to push our bodies for peak physical fitness—but when it comes to our emotional health, many of us just wing it.

Here’s the good news: emotional fitness can be LEARNED…even if you didn’t grow up with mentally strong role models, and even if you’re not sure how to do it. Dr. Emily Anhalt—psychologist to the Silicon Valley tech elite and founder of Coa, the “gym” for mental fitness—offers a prescriptive, 7-step plan to help you develop the emotional strength and flexibility to cope with whatever comes your way. As you progress in your career and through your life, she explains, emotional intelligence isn’t just a “nice to have” soft skill. It’s a vital talent that allows you to show up as your best self, in good times and during tough moments. In Flex Your Feelings, you’ll find a blueprint for building an emotional fitness practice that works for you—so you can live it, every day.
