Are you one minor inconvenience away from a full-blown existential crisis?

Do you regularly Google how to do your own job while hoping nobody notices?

Ever sat in a meeting nodding thoughtfully while having no clue what’s happening?

Congratulations! 🎉 You’re just like everyone else.

This book is a highly questionable, deeply unserious guide to:

✔️ Looking like you have your life together while internally screaming.

✔️ Pretending you belong in the room, even when you definitely don’t.

✔️ Saying things with confidence so people stop asking follow-up questions.

Inside, you’ll learn highly advanced survival techniques, including:

🔥 "Meetings, Presentations, and Other Ways to Have a Public Meltdown" (How to say “Let’s circle back” and escape responsibility forever.)

🔥 "Job Interviews: The Olympic Sport of Pretending You’re Normal" (How to answer 'Tell me about yourself' without crying.)

🔥 "Your Inner Critic is a Liar (And Also Kind of a Jerk)" (Why your brain is an unpaid intern with terrible opinions.)

🔥 "Nobody Actually Knows What They’re Doing (And That’s Beautiful)" (How billionaires, CEOs, and your boss are all just making stuff up.)

If you’ve ever felt like an imposter, like a fraud, or like you are one “Let’s hop on a quick call” away from quitting life and living in the woods— this book is for you.

Because here’s the truth:

🚀 Nobody knows what they’re doing. They’re just pretending louder.

🔥 And now, so can you.

WARNING: This book will not help you grow as a person. It will, however, make you feel slightly better about the absolute trainwreck that is modern life.
