With equal parts wit, wisdom, erudition, and warmth, author Elise
Loehnen takes us on a guided journey through history, culture, and
our own psychologies to not just investigate the limiting effects
of Patriarchal thinking in women’s lives, but to free them.
Pleasure, connection, trust, and joy - all these and more await the
reader lucky enough to spend time in conversation with a truly
remarkable mind. Half historical docent, half big sister with a hot
cup of tea, read this author and change your life
*Terrence Real. New York Times bestselling author*
A stunning, big and bold encyclopedia of how to live – the first
post-pandemic book to take our latest measurements and provide
something fresh to comfort, embolden, enlighten and enrich who we
are today. Loehnen is never instructive but always right. The book
never flags and each section has a takeaway for how to live wiser,
and an anecdote to help you feel less alone. On Our Best Behavior
is nothing short of a tangible necessity in our new intangible
world
*Lisa Taddeo, bestselling author of THREE WOMEN*
What if women finally found freedom – because we gave it to
ourselves? In On Our Best Behavior, Elise Loehnen brilliantly
reframes our toxic cultural programming and helps us to see that
what we thought were our sins are actually our greatest virtues.
This book is the gift we have all been waiting for
*Lori Gottlieb, New York Times bestselling author of MAYBE YOU
SHOULD TALK TO SOMEONE*
