Two therapists analyze their own relationship to help untangle the common and frustrating barriers many individuals face on the road to a happy, loving, rewarding partnership.Many of the clients who end up in our respective therapist offices thought they were doing relationships right—avoiding the white picket fence, focusing on careers and experiences over babies and legally-binding documents, choosing someone after they “found themselves” first. However, like clockwork, around their early to mid-thirties, these clients show up at our door. Why? For the first time, they realize that they dislike their relationship and are frustrated by their partner but know that another break-up won’t fix things. They recognize a pattern of relationship misery that has them finally looking in the mirror asking, how do you make a relationship last?It took us many relationships, our own inner self journey (which we’re still on), therapy, therapy school, and helping thousands of people with their relationships, to learn to have better ones ourselves. Vanessa woke up at 31, after ending an engagement and moving to Los Angeles. John thought he woke up at 35 after his divorce. But he didn’t truly wake up until he was pushing 40. In It’s Not Me, It’s You, John and Vanessa dissect their own relationship to help readers figure out theirs: what their relationships were like in the past, what traumas they carried into the new relationship, and how they work on growing together to foster a healthy and long-term bond.The surprising truth is falling in love is more about you than your partner. It’s more about challenge and growth than comfort and ease, and roots don’t grow from wishful thinking—they grow in the soil of communication, curiosity, patience, and understanding.It’s Not Me, It’s You is for anyone looking for real advice on relationships that takes both sides into account and discusses relationships with the honesty and clarity we all need.

Revealing the Mississippi River as an interconnected ecological corridor that structures our collective past, present, and future in the AnthropoceneThe Mississippi River Open School for Kinship and Social Exchange (2022–2025) is a structurally radical, community-engaged educational project that turns the university inside out to make it a home for public pedagogy, reconceiving the relationship between universities and frontline communities. This book collects, curates, and represents much of the work produced by, through, and in collaboration with the Open School. It foregrounds the central methodology of collaboratively imagining and practicing experimental modes of teaching and learning for the planetary climate emergency by drawing from a growing archive of creative writing, art, film, interviews, and activist toolkits, and it engages pressing issues of race, environment, and extraction as it connects crises experienced along the Mississippi River, from its headwaters to the gulf.Contributors: Morgan Adamson, Jamie Allen, Kayla Anderson, Ida Aronson, Sara Black, Bruce Braun, Imani Jacqueline Brown, Nicholas Brown, Andrea Carlson, Aron Chang, Jennifer Colten, Morgan Piper Cordova, Amber Ginsburg, Tammy Greer, Shana M. griffin, Ryan Griffis, Brian Holmes, Sarah Kanouse, Sarah Lewison, Jacob Lindgren, Stephanie Lindquist, Jason Ludwig, Jenna Mae, Shanai Matteson, Nelson Mondale, Tahani Nadim, Ozone 504, Sara Pajunen, Lynn Peemoeller, Claire Pentecost, Roopali Phadke, Zane Piontek, Catherine Russell, Kirisitina Sailiata, Meira Smit, Joe Underhill, Monique Verdin, Jesse Vogler, Colin Waters, Mark Williams, Jan Zalasiewicz.Distributed for the Mississippi River Open School for Kinship and Social Exchange.
