The amount of people out there who secretly (or not so secretly) drink their own urine or wear cooch-juice cologne would probably shock you. But no matter what kind of weird stuff people do to their bodies, writer Brigid Delaney wants them to know they're gonna die anyways. So why worry?
Brigid Delaney is a speechwriter, former author of popular weekly Guardian column ‘Brigid Delaney’s Diary,’ and co-founder of the anti-death penalty advocacy group The Mercy Campaign. Her book about her own journey from hot mess to health consciousness was made into the Netflix comedy series Wellmania. Her latest book Reasons Not to Worry is "an accessible introduction to Stoic principles of virtue, moderation and self-discipline, adapting this ancient knowledge to inspire practical advice for everyday life."
