How to Work Without Losing Your Mind is a painfully honest and practical book for women who are struggling to survive - let alone thrive - in the modern workplace.

We're told that women today have never had it so good, yet millennial women are among the brokest generation. They're burning out and in danger of giving it all up.

How to Work Without Losing Your Mind is a painfully honest, hilarious, and relatable guide to surviving the hell of the nine to five. It will help you navigate the real, messy, stressful, and sometimes bizarre side of work that everyone experiences but no one talks about.

Drawing on her time working in both giant corporations and scrappy startups, Cate Sevilla will be your guide through every shitstorm you'll ever face, whether you're:

  • feeling overwhelmed by your workload
  • trying to get out of a job you hate
  • battling a boss who seems determined to keep you down
  • struggling to stay motivated
  • bouncing back from failure or being fired

How to Work Without Losing Your Mind will replace the G&T at the end of your day. It'll be your tonic to a long, hard working week, where you've cried in the office loos and are wondering what to do next.
