Poop! Gross!
I am sure that is what you’re thinking when you saw this cute, I am biased, little book! What could you possibly learn from a book related to one of the least attractive processes that the human body performs.
Well this book is here to teach you how you internalize the emotional poo that people in your life project at you. You will also learn how your inability to emotionally and physically guard yourself ends up making you hold that poo and spread that poo on everything you touch and everyone you interact with.
Don’t Hold Their Poop is here to not only help you recognize the scenarios in your life where others are emotionally projecting onto you but also to help you gain self awareness around how you internalize the mess. Through tools like “Oops Poops” and “Dropping a Deuce” you will then learn how to hand back or flush the poo away.
More importantly, this little book will help YOU recognize when you are the defecating defendant and how to give yourself a gut check when you begin splattering your friends, family, and let’s face it, strangers, with your emotional mess!
So sit back, relax, grab some wet wipes, and let’s talk Poop!

C.J. has been a guest speaker for several years and enjoys using her passion and education to promote others in achieving their life goals.
C.J. is the first person in her immediate family to graduate from a 4 year University. But learned even more from the school of hard knocks. Whether it was her parents taking in a friend who needed help, her mother and her handing sandwiches out to the homeless in Downtown Los Angeles, or her love for rescuing dogs, she has always had a passion for helping others. Because of this, she graduated from Arizona State University with a Master’s Degree in Marriage and Family Therapy.
If you can’t tell her type of therapy is off the cuff and more down to earth than most. She has been described as “Constructively blunt with a side of sweet empowerment.” Even within sessions she was known to curse, rap, and make up dumb examples to help her clients understand tools and concepts. This is where the phrase, “Don’t Hold their Poop” and other poop references were born. Her goal was for her clients to leave therapy sessions remembering the shenanigans that came out of her mouth when they were triggered or in stressful situations. Per her client’s account, it worked.
Now C.J. is living her passion of promoting mental health, physical health, and emotional health to men, women, and teens all over the world!
C.J. is happily married and childless by choice. She is a dog fanatic and if it was up to her, she would have a small dog gang. She enjoys donating her time to the less fortunate as well as promoting equality for all human beings and animals.
She hopes that you do not take yourself and your life too seriously. It’s all a big bowel movement. Your choice is to settle and wipe with one ply or know your worth and flushable wet wipe that, literal, shit.
