After Unwanted, I kept listening. The deeper work came into focus: it isn’t only about stopping “unwanted” behaviors—it’s about forming desire, the force under our choices. My new book, DESIRE is now available for preorder, wherever books are sold.
It’s okay not to know what you want. Most of us were never taught to listen to desire—only to suppress it. We were told to make the right choices, be grateful for what we have, and not want too much. But your desires were never the problem.
Trying to change your patterns can feel exhausting. If you’re ready to stop bending desire toward optimization or management, and let it form you for the work of love, click here to preorder: amzn.to/4hHUa2F
Most of us assume we’re the authors of our desire. We’re not. All too often our desires are shaped by what others want us to want, whether it’s a beauty product, a tech gadget, a wellness trend, or a sexual experience.
Many of us have learned to fear our own desires. We call them selfish, distracting, or dangerous. So we run—from our longings into productivity, screens, or substances. But every time we suppress what we truly want, we disconnect from the parts of us that most need to come alive.
I explore how to form desire—without losing belonging—in my new book DESIRE (Penguin Random House, March). Pre-order here: a.co/d/0mWYzE7 #JayStringer #DesireBook #HealingJourney
Søren Kierkegaard said, “The most painful state of being is remembering the future, particularly the one you’ll never have.” That ache for what will never be is where our desire begins to speak. DESIRE is available for preorder here: a.co/d/0mWYzE7
Apart from a selfie or a mirror, we can’t see our own face. There’s a lot of metaphor in that. The people who walk with us shape the way we see ourselves—and in doing so, they shape the quality of our future. Click here to pre-order Desire today: a.co/d/0mWYzE7
If you know something must shift but don’t know where to begin, my new book DESIRE offers a map. It shows how you arrived here and how to harness heartache and longing to build a life of connection, purpose, and love. Desire is now available for preorder: a.co/d/0mWYzE7
