Publisher Description
The lifestyle creator, advice expert, and host of the It’s Me, Tinx podcast shares her hilarious and (sometimes brutally) honest wisdom on how to shift your approach to life, step into your confidence, and enjoy the journey.
It’s time to get laser focused on what makes us feel happy and fulfilled. Lifestyle creator, advice expert, and podcast host Tinx wants to take your hand and guide you to a new way of thinking about life, love, happiness, and friendships—where dating evolves into era of self-discovery and not just a means to an end, sharing wisdom becomes a collective power, and chaos turns into a source of creativity. Making small but mighty shifts in thinking can be a tool for personal growth that fuels you instead of fatigues you. The point is to know yourself, discover what you fulfills you, and have fun along the way.
In The Shift, Tinx collects all her revolutionary theories and hilarious personal anecdotes in one place, presenting you with a guide to simple mindset shifts that will completely change the way you approach decision making and relationships.
Through her own stories, from the good to the bad, Tinx will help you better understand how to step into your power and own self-worth. Some say you cannot love another before you learn to love yourself: Tinx will teach you how to do both at the same time. And she’ll do it while making you laugh out loud.
With her signature wit and candor, Tinx will teach you:
-How to change your scarcity mindset
-How to understand and employ her famous Box Theory dating concept
-How to feed the things that fulfill you
-How living well is the best revenge
-How therapy can reframe struggles into strengths
-How to break up with dignity
-How knowing your worth makes you a better friend and partner
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
TikTok star and It's Me, Tinx podcaster Tinx encourages women to take an empowered stance toward dating in her chatty, candid debut. Though many women have been "brainwashed" by a culture that prizes male validation, Tinx writes—even Sex and the City, a show that featured four successful female leads, boiled down to "Will she end up with this guy or that guy?"—dating shouldn't be a means to an end, but a process of self discovery. The author dispenses advice on first impressions ("evaluate him like you'd evaluate your best friend's new guy"), better sex ("the key... is getting out of your head and into your body"), and redefining what makes a date successful ("Sometimes it's a date where you try Ethiopian food the first time"). Once in a relationship, the author counsels, readers should guard themselves from the perils of "Boyfriend Sickness," an "affliction that causes you to lose yourself" in a relationship, by staying connected to friends and remaining invested in personal interests. Despite a few tips that seem not to align with the self-directed bent of the rest of her advice ("matching his energy" while texting, referring to enthusiasm, feels akin to game playing), her advice is mostly sensible, delivered with a healthy dose of humor, and backed by accounts of her own dating foibles. This will refresh those seeking a new approach to dating.
Customer Reviews
Loved this.
I didn’t know about Tinx because I’m not big on TikTok but my sister got this book for Christmas and I started reading her copy. I ended up getting hooked and buying my own so I could finish it. As a single 34 year old I found this so relatable, filled with refreshing reminders and new perspectives. I’m beyond grateful to have come across it & super grateful to Tinx for being so open, honest and vulnerable with her experiences. I’ve recommended this book to several friends already!!!
Love It!!!
I learned quite a lot from Tinx. She gave me back my backbone! Reminded me of the proper mindset to have. It felt like I was talking to my older sister (that I don’t have!) I am extremely appreciative for the book
