'For anyone who is feeling lost or ground down in their career, particularly younger women, this is an essential read. Inspiring, practical and comforting, it's like Cate has seen into my brain and answered all of my secret fears. This book is a game changer, and should be on everybody's wish list.' – Reader Review
How to Work Without Losing Your Mind is a hilarious and relatable guide to the messy, stressful and sometimes bizarre side of work that everyone experiences but no one talks about. Drawing on her experience at both giant corporations and scrappy startups, Cate will show readers how to deal with the manager from hell, avoid burnout and protect their mental health, decide whether to quit their job, ditch comparison culture, set boundaries, and work out what they want from their career, among other things.
In her debut book, Cate opens up about the good, the bad and the ugly situations she’s found herself in at work. Cate also interviews an array of women from different industries (therapists, scientists, HR professionals, teachers and writers like Viv Groskop and Daisy Buchanan), to create an encouraging, funny and practical guide to the demands, expectations and horrors of modern work.
