THIS WASN'T IN THE BROCHURE:
A Workbook for Your Quarter-Life Crisis
Your quarter-life crisis doesn't have to be dramatic to make you start questioning everything.
That's what this book is for.
A life reset workbook for your 20s and 30s (and really, way beyond).
101 questions to help you hear what's actually true for you. No psych jargon. No five-step plan.
Just one gut-check question at a time.
By the end, you won't have it all figured out, but you'll have more clarity about what's draining you and what you might want more of in your life.
(Already feeling it? Get This Wasn't in The Brochure by Elsa Sim here.)
What's inside:
- 101 questions: Identity. Purpose. Relationships. Money. Linked to the patterns running underneath it all.
- A pattern index near the end. Once you've answered enough questions, you start seeing the same things show up. This section helps you name what's going on.
- A now what? guide. This section gives you small, practical exercises to help you start shifting the patterns that came up.
Built to survive a bad week. And designed for the part of you that maybe doesn't always like to finish hard things. Go ahead and skip around. Put it down for a month. Pick it back up. This one's made to still be meaningful.
What a Page Looks Like
One question at a time. Space to write what comes up. Something to consider to help you get insight from your answer.
And if it's not a writing kind of day, the soft-start check-in lets you just notice how the question lands, and move on.
Some days you'll fill the lines. Some days you'll just check a box and close the book. Both are real progress.
That's the whole pace of the book. It doesn't have to be fast or all at once. Just whatever you can manage today. It's all valuable.

Who writes this stuff?
I'm not a coach. Or a therapist.
Also, this isn't advice.
I'm just a regular person who started asking better questions and poking at messy truths—because pretending I was fine stopped working.
That's the moment these books are for.
Let's get uncomfortable together.
