What if the system you devoted your life to - school, work, being a "good person" - was never built for you in the first place?
For decades, Yvonne followed the rules. She got the degrees, landed the jobs, racked up the student loans, and chased the ever-receding promise that if she just worked harder, she'd finally arrive.
Instead, she arrived at burnout. Bankruptcy. And a nervous system stuck in permanent "danger" mode.
In this true story, Yvonne shares what happens when doing everything "right" still gets you nowhere - and how, piece by stubborn piece, she started crafting a life that actually fits. From examining dead things in the field to coming alive in her own story, this is a memoir of unlearning, unbecoming, and finally coming home to the self.
With dark humour, bite, and hard-won insight, Yvonne invites us into the trenches of trauma, the mess of midlife reinvention, and the surprising magic that comes when you stop waiting for permission - and start making your own luck.
For every exhausted overachiever, every first-gen student, and every woman who wonders if it's too late to choose herself - this one's for you.
