You are not what happened to you.
When Jeremy Goldberg was six, his father knelt in the driveway and told him he needed to be the man of the house. It would take thirty years and a stranger's question at his childhood home before he understood what that one sentence had cost him. A Giraffe Named Feelings is a memoir about shame, pretending, running away, and the slow walk home - to yourself, to the people you love, to the little kid you abandoned somewhere along the way. It moves from a Swamp Monster of his own making, to a tsunami draining an entire bay, to a first kiss timed to a song's crescendo. Equal parts confession, comedy, and quiet revolution, this is what happens when a behavioral scientist stops studying other people and starts excavating himself. For readers of Glennon Doyle, Cheryl Strayed, and Mary Karr.
DR. JEREMY GOLDBERG is the creator of Long Distance Love Bombs, where his writings on kindness, vulnerability, and self-acceptance reach a global community on Instagram, Substack, and a podcast in the top 1% globally. A recovering scientist with a PhD in behavioral science, he works as a life coach and keynote speaker and gave a TEDx talk called What if kindness was cool? His first book is It'll Be Okay, And You Will Be Too. He lives in Squamish, British Columbia, with his family.
