Pre-order your copy here and get ready to redefine what resilience actually means for your life and career.

Why Another Book on Resilience?

Because most resilience advice misses the mark entirely.

You've probably been told to "bounce back" from challenges. To be stronger. To push through. To develop thicker skin. But what if resilience isn't about becoming an unbreakable force? What if it's about knowing when to bend, when to rest, and when to say enough?

Call Me Resilient flips the script on traditional resilience thinking. Instead of teaching you how to endure more, it teaches you how to thrive sustainably. Instead of celebrating your ability to carry impossible loads, it shows you how to set them down without guilt.

This book speaks directly to professionals who:

• Feel exhausted by constantly being the "strong one" at work

• Wonder why their coping strategies aren't working anymore

• Want practical tools that fit into their actual life, not an idealized version of it

• Are ready to stop wearing burnout as a badge of honor

• Need permission to prioritize their wellbeing without feeling selfish

What Makes This Different?

You won't find generic advice about meditation apps or bubble baths here. Not because those things are bad, but because they're not enough.

Call Me Resilient addresses the real challenges you face as a professional trying to maintain your humanity in demanding environments. It acknowledges that your workplace culture might be toxic, that your boundaries get tested daily, and that sometimes the most resilient thing you can do is admit you need help.

The book includes:

Real-world strategies that work in actual office environments, not just wellness retreats. You'll learn how to navigate difficult conversations, protect your energy during long meetings, and maintain your values when pressure mounts.

Permission to be human. Resilience isn't about suppressing emotions or pushing through pain. It's about developing a healthy relationship with both success and setbacks.

Tools for sustainable performance. Instead of sprinting until you collapse, you'll discover how to pace yourself for the long game. Your career is a marathon, not a series of back-to-back sprints.

Who Needs This Book Right Now?

If you're reading this, probably you.

But specifically, this book resonates with professionals who feel caught between expectations and reality. You're competent, accomplished, and reliable – which means everyone turns to you when things get challenging. Your resilience has become your identity, but it's also become your prison.

Maybe you're the team member who always stays late to finish projects. The manager who absorbs stress from above and below. The consultant who says yes to every opportunity because saying no feels impossible. The therapist, coach, or helping professional who gives everything to clients while neglecting yourself.

You've been called resilient so many times that you've forgotten it's supposed to serve you, not the other way around.

Beyond Bouncing Back

Traditional resilience advice focuses on recovery – how to bounce back from setbacks, how to return to baseline, how to restore what was lost. But what if your baseline wasn't healthy to begin with?

Call Me Resilient introduces a different framework. Instead of bouncing back, you'll learn to bounce forward. Instead of returning to old patterns, you'll create new ones that actually support your wellbeing.

This means examining the systems, habits, and beliefs that led to burnout in the first place. It means questioning whether your definition of success is actually yours or something you inherited from family, culture, or workplace expectations.

Most importantly, it means recognizing that true resilience includes the wisdom to know when something needs to change – and the courage to change it.

What You'll Actually Learn

This isn't theoretical psychology disguised as practical advice. Every concept in Call Me Resilient comes with implementation strategies you can use immediately.

Chapter highlights include:

Redefining resilience – Moving beyond "toughness" to a more nuanced understanding of adaptability, recovery, and growth.

Energy management over time management – Why your calendar isn't the problem, and what to focus on instead.

Boundary setting for professionals – How to maintain standards without becoming rigid, and how to protect your wellbeing without sabotaging relationships.

The myth of work-life balance – A more realistic framework for integrating different life domains without constant guilt or compromise.

Sustainable high performance – How to excel in your field without sacrificing your health, relationships, or sanity.

Each chapter ends with reflection questions and practical exercises. Not busy work – genuine tools for understanding your current patterns and building healthier ones.

A Personal Note from Alyx

Writing this book felt like having a conversation with every professional who's ever sat in my coaching office feeling simultaneously successful and empty. You've achieved what you thought you wanted, but the cost has been higher than expected.

You don't need to choose between success and wellbeing. You don't need to sacrifice your humanity for your career. And you definitely don't need to keep pushing through until something breaks.

Call Me Resilient is my attempt to give you permission to redefine strength on your own terms. To build a career that energizes rather than depletes you. To be genuinely resilient instead of just appearing that way.
