Author Dave Tarnowski joins us this week to talk about his book, Disappointing Affirmations, based on his popular Instagram account that has over 2 million followers. Known for pairing peaceful nature photos with sayings that are amusingly self-critical, encouraging, disillusioned, or all three at once, Tarnowski points to feelings often unacknowledged or hidden, and spotlights them with humor, wit, and empathy. Tarnowski’s willingness to approach depression and failure with humor and pragmatism has won millions of enthusiastic fans who bristle at the culture of relentless toxic positivity. Failure may be an option, but that’s okay.  Be sure to grab your copy of Disappointing Affirmations at the link below! https://disappointingaffirmations.chroniclebooks.com @disappointingaffirmations CannedAirPodcast.com Twitter: @CannedAirPod Instagram: @Canned_Air If you’d like to show your support, you can either visit our Patreon page at Patreon.com/CannedAirPod or you can leave us a comment, like, and subscribe!
