Share Your Stuff. I'll Go First.: 10 Questions to Take Your Friendships to the Next Level Audio CD – Unabridged, February 2, 2021

by Laura Tremaine (Author, Reader), Jenna Fischer (Foreword)
4.6 out of 5 stars (707)

Part memoir and part guidebook, Share Your Stuff. I'll Go First. is the invitation you've been waiting for to show up with your whole self and discover the intimate, meaningful relationships you long for.

In spite of the hyper-connected culture we live in today, women still feel shamed for oversharing and being publicly vulnerable. And no matter how many friends we seem to have, many of us are still desperately lonely.

Laura Tremaine says it's time for something better. Openness and vulnerability are the foundation for human growth and healthy relationships, and it all starts when we share our stuff, the nitty-gritty daily details about ourselves with others. Laura has led the way in her personal life with her popular blog and podcast, and now with lighthearted self-awareness, a sensitivity to the important things in life, and compelling storytelling, Laura gives you the tools to build and deepen the conversations happening in your life.

Laura's stories about her childhood in Oklahoma, her complicated shifts in faith and friendships, and her marriage to a Hollywood movie director will prompt you to identify the beautiful narrative and pivotal milestones of your own life. Each chapter offers intriguing and reflective questions that will reveal unique details and stories you've never thought to tell and will guide you into cultivating the authentic connection with others that only comes from sharing yourself.

The kind of book you need to share. Really.
This book is its own thing, it’s like a Walmart inside your mind: lots of stories, plenty of helpful insight, shared wisdom, and a nice mix of humor and serious remarks. This book made me laugh, cry, reflect and wonder, all in one night. To me, that’s the mark of a really nice book.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Such an important read!
    Reviewed in the United States on February 3, 2021
    Format: HardcoverVerified Purchase
    I got the book yesterday and finished it this morning. Her questions and corresponding personal essays gave me words, categories and closure for many of my own stories. Stories that I often think about but hadn't yet connected the dots as to how they changed me, or made me, taught me or broke me. What a gift to grow deeper in the knowledge of yourself while reading someone else's stories. Laura has the amazing ability to put words to intangible or misunderstood experiences of life. I am purchasing for several friends and can't wait to discuss with them!

    5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic for a book club
    Reviewed in the United States on May 12, 2021
    Format: HardcoverVerified Purchase
    First off, let me say I pre-purchased the ebook because the author was offering several pre-order bonuses. I was most excited about the private Facebook group where Tremaine would be hosting a Book Club to discuss each chapter. I'm at a stage in my life where I don't have a lot of girlfriends locally to chat with so I loved the idea of an online book club. After the book was released, I purchased the audiobook and listened to the corresponding chapter before each book club meeting. Each week Tremaine did a live video to discuss a chapter or two and interact with her readers. It was FANTASTIC and I appreciate so much the time the author put into this! I do think that being in a book club to discuss the book is the best way to get the most out of the experience.

    I love Laura's Podcast- 10 Things to Tell You (and her past one Smartest Person in the Room). I follow her on social media and have for years, this is how I found out about the book. I really enjoyed learning more about her and how she views the world. I will definitely be reading this book again in order to process the journal aspect of it. I felt like the first time reading it I was just enjoying the book and now will go back and do the journaling aspect.

    5.0 out of 5 stars An invitation to be more open from the woman so many of us feel is our Internet BFF
    Reviewed in the United States on February 16, 2021
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    I have long been a fan of Laura Tremaine, having discovered her shortly after she started blogging as "The Hollywood Housewife." She is one of those souls on the Internet whose words pull you in, make you stay, and magically make you believe that she's one of your IRL friends. This would explain why she not only has a huge online following, but landed herself a book deal—a deal for a title that feels like THE book she specifically was destined to write.

    It's always a bit terrifying to read a debut by someone you admire so much. What if their words don't live up to the hype or to your personal expectations for the talent they possess? I will admit I held my breath as I dove into "Share Your Stuff," fearing this scenario playing out. But within the first few pages, I let that breath out. Laura's voice was engaging, her stories compelling, and her reader prompts thought-provoking. I couldn't turn the pages fast enough, and yet I hated reaching the end.

    I've been thinking about who I want to gift a copy of this book to and I have the perfect friend in mind. I look forward to catching up with her after this pandemic is over, picking a chapter's question to discuss, and then doing the same with a different chapter the next year and the year after that.

    I'm thrilled for Laura and her publishing success. In her debut, she asks her readers to think about who the people in their life are who teach them "how to be." I can't help that, for many of us out there, Laura is one of those people. I am grateful for her candor and her commitment to helping so many of her friends and followers be their best, most authentic selves, online and in person.

    The description that suggests this book is part memoir and part guidebook is spot on. The author has assembled interesting prompts to help better understand oneself as well as one’s nearest and dearest.

    With each question, she offers personal stories, which I enjoyed given I already have a relationship with the author via her podcast, 10 Things To Tell You. I understand her even more now. The stories also provide additional support to the prompts if one isn’t sure how to respond.

    I like her suggestion to deepen relationships through shared stories. Certainly, she didn’t originate this idea, but she’s done a good job of assembling ways to share the formative moments of life, all written in her book.

    And I also loved the Lists of 10 between the chapters.

    5.0 out of 5 stars A Beautiful Invitation to Deeper Connections
    Reviewed in the United States on February 4, 2021
    Format: HardcoverVerified Purchase
    I couldn’t have chosen a better book to be my first read of 2021. Share Your Stuff: I’ll Go First by Laura Tremaine is the book version of a good friend clasping your hands between theirs, looking you in the eyes, and asking, “How are you doing, friend? Tell me everything.” It is a warm and inviting book about connection: connection to our friends and community, and especially to ourselves.

    This book contains 10 questions that will make great prompts for your journal, a book club, or conversations with a friend. In the same kind, nonjudgmental, and sincere way that Laura asks questions on her popular @10thingstotellyou podcast and blog, Share Your Stuff is a book that encourages you to know yourself and to allow yourself to be known. As the title suggests, she leads by example by also answering each question for herself.

    I’ve been following Laura Tremaine for many years through multiple podcasts, blogs, and social media platforms, and this book contained so many stories I’d never heard her tell before. She’s not asking you to be vulnerable while only recycling the same handful of carefully-worded stories she’s put out into the world before. She’s bravely practicing what she preaches.
