A painfully honest and practical book for women who are struggling to survive - let alone thrive - in the modern workplace.
Cate Sevilla has led and managed editorial teams for some of the world's largest media and tech companies - including Google, BuzzFeed and Microsoft. She was a founding member of BuzzFeed UK and later became editor-in-chief at The Pool, at the helm when the company collapsed. Cate is the co-host of Sali Hughes' monthly show on Soho Radio. She is launching a podcast to accompany the publication of her debut book. American with Filipino heritage, Cate was born in California, and moved to London age 20 to marry a British man she met on MySpace - 14 years later, they are strong as ever.

I can't think of a better time than the darkness of a covid winter
to sit down with this wonderful book and re-assess your
relationship to work. Cate Sevilla has a wisdom about the working
world that is rare in its depth and sensitivity. She can teach you
how to fix a bad work situation--or to spot when it's time to walk
away. Her book will teach you how to survive at work without
sacrificing your soul - from dealing with bad communication, awful
managers, and impending burnout, to setting boundaries and getting
organised. Everyone who works has to read this book
*Hannah Jewell, Washington Post*
It's funny and smart and incisive and smashes every narrative we're
fed as workers (and women). And it's way beyond being an essential
book on work culture; it's an essential feminist text. The women
who read this - employees, managers, wherever they are in the
structure - will be changed by it. It's nothing short of
radical
*Terri White, Editor of Empire*
