Stop taking everything personally.

Not every slight is about you. Not every mood in the room is your fault. That Wasn't About Me is a short, practical book for people who feel everything too deeply — who replay conversations, brace for disapproval, and take feedback like a wound.

Blake Tenney unpacks emotional reactivity with unusual honesty: why sensitive people absorb other people's moods, how the fear of disapproval quietly runs your decisions, and what to do instead — at work, with family, and in the mirror.

No jargon, no guru talk. Just clear tools for thicker skin and a quieter mind.
