Paperback. Feeling like a human octopus juggling work calls, diaper changes, and your own sanity? The Oxygen Mask Principle throws the ultimate lifejacket to overwhelmed parents. This witty survival guide tells it like it is: you won't "have it all" without gasping for air, and that's okay. In crackling first-person voice, Sir Thomas Goodwin empathizes with your daily chaos and parental identity shake-up. He lampoons the guilt-trip of "doing it all" and shows how slipping on your own oxygen mask (figuratively!) lets you help everyone else. No sugarcoating here - just brutally honest humor and practical life hacks for burnt-out moms and dads. You'll recognize your inner dialogue on every page ("Did I just pour coffee in my cereal?") as Goodwin guides you through quick sanity-check strategies. When you crack open this book, you get: a 30-second sanity plan for frazzled mornings, realistic pep talks to swap guilt for giggles, and survival tips for nights when baby's asleep but your brain won't shut off. The tone is direct and hilariously relatable - think of it as a pep rally from your brutally honest best friend. By the end, you're not just laughing; you're breathing easier with fresh perspective. The Oxygen Mask Principle isn't another preachy parenting manual or platitude-filled self-help book. It's a transformational toolkit that boosts your parental superpowers (and preserves what's left of your identity). Strap in for blunt humor, evidence-based sanity support, and the message: putting on your own oxygen mask first will actually keep your kids safer in the long run. It's the only survival guide that admits: you can't be Super Parent 24/7, but you can survive parenthood with your sense of humor (and yourself) intact. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
