Hello friends!
I have a big announcement today.
I am so nervous. And so excited.
So... nerv-cited.
YOU'RE GOING TO SURVIVE is a book about how to deal with stressful stuff in your career—projects that flop, negative reviews, online bullies, financial slumps, criticism, rejection—all
of those "Who am I? What's the point of my work? What am I doing with my life?" moments.
When you're having a tough day...
I hope you'll curl up with this book and read until you feel
better.
PAPERBACK & KINDLE: YOU CAN PRE-ORDER
NOW!
In a few weeks, it will be at your local bookstore, too. There's no pressure to buy this book (or anything I create) but if you do... whoa! Hooray! Thank
you!
INSIDE THIS BOOK
Inside YOU'RE GOING TO SURVIVE, you’ll find true stories from my career, and from lots of friends and colleagues—authors, chefs, lawyers, artists, designers, dancers, business consultants, non-profit directors, fundraisers, and more—each describing one of the worst moments in their entire career, how they got through it, and what they learned in the
process.
The book has been called: "Your new best friend on a bad day," "Encouraging, comforting, and uplifting," and "A must-read book for anyone with an ambitious career dream."
I hope this book helps you to remember that everyone—seriously, everyone—goes through discouraging stuff. Interns, managers, entrepreneurs, Presidential candidates—everyone experiences disappointment, and everyone has moments of overwhelm, confusion, and strain. You are not alone. You are stronger than you think. And you're going to survive.
YOUR HOLIDAY SHOPPING... ALL SORTED OUT!
- An entrepreneur who’s feeling invisible and anxious about low
sales.
- A new college grad who’s job-hunting and having a pretty rough time out there.
- An actor who’s had a string of disappointing auditions and is considering giving up.
- A
blogger who's feeling perfectionistic and nervous about putting her writing "out there."
- A fundraiser who's trying to raise money for a noble cause, but it feels like nobody is listening and it's becoming so frustrating.
- Anyone who’s facing adversity—physical injury, financial setback,
criticism, rejection, online bullying, unsupportive family members—and who could really use a pep talk.
- Anyone craving kind words, inspiration, and encouragement.
You can pre-order several copies—for your kids, for your best friend, for everyone in your book club, for your clients, for your entire team at the office. And just like that, all of your holiday shopping is done! THANK YOU!
ENDLESS HUGS FOR YOU!
Thank you for spreading the word about this project.
Thank you for being part of my Internet-family.
You are simply the best.
I want to say
"thank you" about five million more times, but for the sake of brevity, I'll leave it at that.
OK, just one more time. Thank you.

PS. I made a YOU’RE GOING TO SURVIVE music playlist. Here it is! Lots of positive, uplifting, and energizing music. I'm talking about... NSYNC. Viceroy. VNV Nation. Charly Black. Jennifer Lopez. Shakira. Bon Jovi. The Roots. HAMILTON, obviously. Throwback hits and hidden gems, too. Almost 5 hours of my favorite music. It's free to listen. Enjoy!
PPS. If you run a blog, podcast, radio, or TV show… if you'd like to interview me... if you'd like to have me come speak at your university... if you'd like to host a book launch party... or help spread this book’s message of encouragement in any way, shape, or form… that is amazing and I am so grateful. You can email me at hello@alexandrafranzen.com. And here’s a page with some info about what we can do together. Thank you x infinity and beyond.
