Unfollow Your Passion

A hilarious and honest not-quite-self-help audiobook in the vein of Buy Yourself the F*cking Lilies and I Used to Have a Plan.

Every person on the planet wants their life to mean something. The problem is you’ve been told there’s only one way to do that: Find a single passion and commit to it – for life. And that when you do, success, money, and happiness will fill your days with an endless feed of Instagram-worthy bliss. Sound familiar?

Except this isn’t how it happens, and the follow-your-passion advice often comes up short. In Unfollow Your Passion, Terri Trespicio skewers the platitudes, inverts conventional wisdom, and calls into question everything you think you need to succeed: the ever-elusive passion (fun but fleeting), foolproof plans (flimsy at best), and a bucket list (eye roll) to name a few.

With a blend of scientific research, compelling insights, and powerful storytelling, Trespicio gives you the tools you need (and the permission you crave) to dispense with the BS, toss the old advice, and lay claim to the life that’s been yours the whole time – so that you can begin to live it on your terms.
