Have More Good Days Than Bad (And Fewer Meltdowns)

Being an adult in 2025 kinda sucks. Rent climbs, inboxes multiply, and the news cycle feels like a haunted house. Most of us weren’t handed a manual for how to stay steady in the middle of all this. That’s why I wrote Uncle Bobby’s Guide to Happy Adulting .

This isn’t a pep rally or a sermon. It’s more like a kitchen-table conversation—two mugs sweating on cork coasters, a little mess in the sink because life is being life. Inside, you’ll find six chapters packed with the small levers that actually shift a day:

  • The Inner Gym — simple breath, empathy, and laughter routines that reset your nervous system .

  • Environmental Alchemy — how light, posture, and even a glass of water can change your mood faster than a motivational poster .

  • Kindness as Calibration — why “don’t be mean to people” is less about morals and more about nervous-system management .

  • Mindset Shifts — reframes that make boredom workable, outcomes less suffocating, and YouTube tutorials a secret weapon .

  • Rituals of Delight — tiny joys, from standing in sunlight to winking in the mirror, that turn “meh” days into tolerable ones .

  • The Art of Pause — stacking breath, gratitude, and a simple mantra when the world feels too loud .

I wrote it for anyone who has ever stared at a to-do list like it was a ransom note, or argued with themselves at the kitchen sink. The promise isn’t a perfect life—it’s more good days than bad, with fewer meltdowns and more laughs.

If you’ve been waiting for permission to go easier on yourself, to find steadiness in the ordinary, or to treat adulthood as improv rather than a final exam, this book is that nudge.
