The Professional Weirdos Survival Kit
Stop apologizing for being brilliant. Start weaponizing your weirdness.
You're the one with creative solutions that work. The person who asks questions that everyone else is thinking. The professional who brings a fresh perspective to stale conversations. So why do you feel like you're constantly swimming upstream in a sea of beige conformity?
The Professional Weirdos Survival Kit is your tactical playbook for thriving authentically in workplaces that weren't built for people like us.
Brand strategist and former corporate refugee Robyn Sayles knows what it's like to be "too much" in professional settings. After twenty years of watching brilliant people shrink to make others comfortable, she's compiled the exact strategies, scripts, and responses that turn your unconventional brilliance from professional liability to strategic advantage.
Inside this survival guide, you'll discover:

You don't have to change who you are. Learn how to express who you are more effectively. Every script has been battle-tested in real workplace situations. Every phrase can be customized to match your communication style. Every strategy respects your authenticity while amplifying your influence. Perfect for creative professionals, innovative thinkers, multi-hyphenate entrepreneurs, and anyone who's ever been told to "tone it down" for being authentically brilliant.
