书籍简介

抚慰心灵的良药——阿莱桑德拉·奥拉诺为那些在困难时期需要肩膀依靠的人提供建议、灵感和鼓励。我知道这也会过去，（但知道什么时候会有帮助）。在一系列事件让她这个离婚的单身母亲质疑自己，质疑她的关系，以及基本上质疑她认为关于她“生活的一切”，亚历山德拉-奥拉诺开始绘画和发布插图，反映她的感受和为纠正她的生活而奋斗。

她记录了她的治愈之旅，表达了她所经历的震惊、妄想、否认、自怜和自我怀疑，以及帮助她重新获得自我意识的自我同情和宽恕——但比以前更强大、更无畏、更有希望。她迷人的插图和敏锐的、令人难忘的观察，引起了人们的共鸣。在一年之内，她的听众急剧增加，从9500人增加到157000人，其中包括名人凯蒂-库里克（Katie Couric）、詹妮弗-加纳（Jennifer Garner）、伊利斯-罗恩（Elise Loehnen）（Goop的首席内容官）、诗人Joao Doederlein和Joanna Goddard（A Cup of Jo创始人）。

《我曾经有一个计划》将奥拉诺的舒缓情感带给更多的读者，以新的图画和想法为特色，触及意外变化和损失的普遍经验。这本书分为五个部分--"我没有预料到"、"你不好也没关系"、"我去哪儿了"、"出路是通过 "和 "我喜欢这里，我可以呆一会儿吗？"--这本书漂亮地概括了遇到困难、处理困难并从中得到康复、变得更强大和具有更好的自我意识的经历。我曾经有一个计划》充满了建议、同情、同理心和机智，具有安慰性、帮助性、直接性和非凡的真实性，帮助每个人度过痛苦但令人振奋的疗伤过程。

《我曾经有一个计划》包括75-100幅插图。

Balm for the soul-Alessandra Olanow offers advice, inspiration, and encouragement for anyone who needs a shoulder to lean on during a difficult time. "I Know This Too Shall Pass. (But It Would Be Helpful to Know When)."After a series of events left her a divorced single mother questioning herself, her relationships, and basically, everything she thought was true about her "picture-perfect" life, Alessandra Olanow began drawing and posting illustrations that reflected her feelings and struggles to right her life.

She chronicled her journey of healing, expressing the shock, delusion, denial, self-pity, and self-doubt she experienced and the self-empathy and forgiveness that ultimately helped her regain a sense of self-but stronger, more fearless, and more hopeful than before. Her charming illustrations and keen, memorable observations-struck a chord. Within a year, her audience grew dramatically, from 9,500 to 157,000 followers, including celebrities Katie Couric, Jennifer Garner, Elise Loehnen (chief content officer at Goop), the poet Joao Doederlein, and Joanna Goddard (founder of A Cup of Jo).

I Used to Have a Plan brings Olanow's soothing sensibility to a wider audience, featuring new drawings and ideas that touch upon the universal experiences of unexpected change and loss. Divided into five parts-"I Didn't See That Coming," "It's OK That You're Not OK," "Where'd I Go," "The Only Way Out Is Through," and "I Like It Here, Can I Stay a While?"-the book beautifully encapsulates the experience of encountering difficulty, processing it and healing from it, and becoming stronger and with a better sense of self. Full of advice, commiseration, empathy, and wit that is comforting, helpful, direct, and remarkable in its truth, I Used to Have a Plan helps everyone through the painful yet ultimately uplifting process of healing.

I Used to Have a Plan includes 75-100 illustrations.
