Publisher's Summary
When it comes to adult friendships, we’re woefully inept: We barely manage to show up for our own commitments, let alone maintain our relationships. What’s more, we’re living in an uncharted social landscape with new conventions on how to relate - one where actual phone calls are reserved for Mom (if anyone), “dropping in” is unheard-of, and “flaking out” is routine.
The Art of Showing Up offers a roadmap through this morass to true connection with your friends, your family, and yourself. Author Rachel Wilkerson Miller teaches that “showing up” means connecting with others in a way that makes them feel seen and supported. And that begins with showing up for yourself: recognizing your needs, understanding your physical and mental health, and practicing self-compassion. Only then can you better support other people; witness their joy, pain, and true selves; validate their experiences; and help ease their burden.
When “showing up” for others, it’s not the grandest gesture that matters most - it’s how close you come to meeting your loved ones where they really are.

What the critics say
"Robin Eller's earnest performance works well with this extensive lesson on how to put 100% of yourself into living your life.... Eller's optimism and clear interpretations make the message sound immediate and useful: Learn to be more engaged and receptive with the people you care about and more self-protective with people who assault your boundaries or treat you disrespectfully."
