Description
From the New York Times bestselling author of The Life-Changing Magic of Not Giving a F*ck and Get Your Sh*t Together comes more straight talk about how to stand up for who you are and what you really want, need, and deserve -- showing when it's okay to be selfish, why it's pointless to be perfect, and how to be "difficult."
Being yourself should be easy, yet too many of us struggle to live on other people's terms instead of our own. Rather than feeling large and in charge, we feel little and belittled.
Sound familiar? Bestselling "anti-guru" Sarah Knight has three simple words for you: YOU DO YOU.
It's time to start putting your happiness first -- and stop letting other people tell you what to do, how to do it, or why it can't be done. And don't panic! You can do it without losing friends and alienating people. Knight delivers her trademark no-bullsh*t advice about:

Sarah N, Reviewer
I received this book from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
What an entertaining book! Sarah Knight does a great job of weaving humor into very good life advice. There is a bit of language, so sorry if you don’t like that.
A bit of advice: read the footnotes! They’re hilarious. And the YouTube link to her TEDx talk. Take the time to watch it.
