Ted's book at Sharon's flat: The Middle Passage
Ted Lasso (Jason Sudeikis) · Dr. Sharon's flat
Ted is in Dr. Sharon's flat and picks up a James Hollis book off her table, then puts it back face down. Book Riot catches it and a reader on Books, Beans and Botany names the same title. A therapist's personal copy of a midlife crisis book is a lot of information about your therapist.

The Middle Passage: From Misery to Meaning in Midlife
Hollis is a Jungian analyst, and the subtitle is From Misery to Meaning in Midlife. Ted is freshly divorced and an ocean away from his son. He found the one book in the room written about him and turned it over.
