Sabina explained that the book offers 16 practical tools to help anyone become the manager they want to be, teaching readers how to handle pressure and gain agency in both work and life.
The book is called You're the Boss. And that's why it's important for everybody. It's become the manager you want to be and others need. But really, every single one of the 16 tools in here is about making you the boss of your life. Whether you're in a management position or not, how do you deal with pressure? How do you navigate life in a way where you have a sense of agency no matter what's coming at you?
You can also, if you don't buy the book, but I give away resources based on the book all the time on my sub stack called Pressure Free and Pressure Proof. And you can follow me on sub stack. You can also sign up for it through my website, sabinanawaz.com.
That's why I wrote this book, because I've walked in the shoes of people under tremendous amounts of pressure. I know what that's like. And we don't have to become that boss from hell. Look, nobody wants to be a bad boss.
