I'm a writer for The Guardian based in Brooklyn, New York.
My new book The Antidote: Happiness for People Who Can't Stand Positive Thinking explores the upsides of negativity, uncertainty, failure and imperfection. Each week in This Column Will Change Your Life I write about social psychology, self-help culture, productivity and the science of happiness, and make unprovoked attacks on The Secret.
I also blog about things for Guardian US and write a monthly column for Psychologies magazine. Hello.
