A short, funny burnout guide for people done hustling.

ABOUT THE BOOK

Book 2 of 3: The F*ck It Files

Book 2 of The F*ck It Files: short, sarcastic books that take apart popular self-help advice and keep the parts that actually help.

You’re not lazy. You’re out of battery.

Hustle culture says rise and grind. The self-care aisle says take a bubble bath. Neither one answers your emails, and neither one noticed you’ve been running on empty since spring.

F#ck the Grind is a short, funny, no-BS burnout recovery guide for people who are done hustling. No 4:30 a.m. routine. No dramatic quitting video. Just a clear look at where your energy goes and what to change this week.

Inside:

  • Why “rise and grind” is a business model, and who profits from your exhaustion
  • The three signs of burnout, and how to tell them apart from a rough week
  • The Load Audit: what’s really on your plate, and whose it is
  • Three scripts for the “quick question” that eats your morning
  • A one-page note that gets your workload changed without drama
  • The Two-Week Downshift: a simple plan built for a messy life
  • When it’s not just burnout, and how to ask for help

Read it in one evening. Keep the one idea that helps and skip the rest. You’ve had enough homework.
Not therapy, not medical advice, and definitely not another productivity cult.
