We’ve all bought the self-help book we swear we’ll read one weekend... herbal tea in hand, ready to “work on ourselves.”

But somehow, those books end up gathering dust.

I didn’t want to write another one of those.

This isn’t a 300-page lecture filled with buzzwords and “you got this” quotes.

It’s a short, story-filled, laugh-out-loud book you’ll actually finish — and enjoy reading.

About the Book

The Self-Respect Playbook for Overthinkers, Overdoers and Overgivers is not your typical self-help manual. It’s a no-BS guide for ambitious women who feel pressured to act like they’ve got it all together but secretly feel like they’re always one step behind.

Written with raw honesty, wit, and compassion, Dr Katherine Iscoe, a former high-achieving people-pleaser herself, knows this struggle firsthand.

From battling an eating disorder and depression to career setbacks and relationship heartbreaks, she learned the hard way that chasing approval from everyone else is a hollow victory if you’re betraying who you really are.

Through deeply relatable stories and life lessons that felt like a slap in the face, she shows how the relentless pursuit of “happiness” is a lie that keeps you stuck.

If you’re looking for a book to make you fearless, this isn’t it. This book is about fearing less. It’s about quitting the chase for everyone else’s approval and building self-respect that lasts.

So if you’ve ever said yes when you meant no, downplayed your success, or feared being ‘too much’, this book is for you.

Stop overthinking, stop proving and start being the real, powerful, respected you instead.
