How do you climb the corporate ladder with a chronic illness?
You bash the ladder into smithereens and build yourself a life raft instead.
This book is for anyone tired of hustle culture and ready to build a career that works with your body and interests.
Kristina Kelly, author of the highly rated How to Be a Badass in a Broken Healthcare System, returns with humorous stories, inspiring interviews, and practical guidance for rethinking work when your energy is limited and your health is unpredictable.
Inside, you'll learn how to:
- replace outdated career standards with sustainable options that fit your real life.
- identify flexible career models (part-time, remote, freelance, and project-based) that protect your energy.
- advocate for what you need at work without overexplaining your health.
- build a career plan that accounts for flare days, appointments, and recovery time.
- move forward with confidence and ditch imposter syndrome, even if your path looks different than the traditional ladder.
Your medical file shouldn't have to define your abilities, purpose, and dreams. You are wildly capable of meaningful work that does not require sacrificing your health.
Grab a cozy blanket and a notepad, and start dreaming what comes next.
