Goodbye Day Job

Inspiring true narratives of career change and personal growth

Too young to retire, too vital to stand still, too experienced to start from scratch.Welcome to your Bonus Years.Increased longevity has gifted us fifteen-to-twenty extra active, healthy working years, shattering the traditional linear career script of learning, working, and retiring. In The Bonus Years, world-renowned London Business School professor Herminia Ibarra delivers the definitive, social-science-backed resource for navigating late-career transformation. Ibarra reveals that thriving in an extended work life requires abandoning the old linear, plan-and-implement strategies. Instead, successful reinvention comes through 'resourceful discovery' - a disciplined process of active experimentation, trying on new futures, and learning from the inside out.Whether change has arrived uninvited through an industry shock, or a quiet internal restlessness is telling you it's time to let go, this book provides the actionable tools to build transition mastery and successfully map your path forward.Filled with rich and varied case studies of professionals who reinvented themselves across the globe, The Bonus Years is an empowering manifesto for anyone who refuses to stand still. It is proof that to bloom late is not to bloom less - it is to bloom with deeper roots, on your own terms.

Most people don't hate their jobs. They hate feeling trapped in them.
You've been told entrepreneurship requires a blind leap-burn the boats, quit first, figure it out later. That's the most expensive advice you'll ever follow.
In Don't Quit Your Job, Yet, John Harris dismantles that fantasy. After building a restaurant empire, losing seven figures, filing bankruptcy, and rebuilding from his own basement, he learned the brutal difference between motion and progress.
This field manual rests on three truths:Your job is the platform for your dreams.
Freedom without structure is exposure.
Preparation beats passion.




At its core is The Freedom Ratio-a metric that measures real independence-and the Parallel Path Operating System, a disciplined way to use your 9-to-5 as an angel investor while building a durable business.
Inside:The Parallel Path: Fund your build without burnout.
The Franchise Trap: The truth about "proven systems" and personal guarantees.
The Provider's Math: Ambition meets family responsibility.
Psychological Armor: Filter noise, protect focus.
The Three Tests: Quit with proof, not panic.




Whether you're a trapped professional, a stuck side-hustler, or a founder rebuilding, this is the blueprint. Stop romanticizing the leap. Engineer the exit. Build structure first. Freedom follows.

DON'T QUIT YOUR JOB YET

'One of the clearest and most important studies to be published on education, worldwide, in many decades' Danny Dorling Does the education system make better people? Why are so many - teachers and students alike - stressed and dissatisfied? Do we need to revive real education? Ideally, education is about the pursuit of truth, beauty and morality. But in the last few decades, a perilous fixation with human capital - skills, knowledge and aptitudes required for the labour market - has trampled over curricula, schools and universities. Rather than learning how to think critically about the world, from cradle to grave students are trained to be more effective workers, to make more money, and to serve an hegemonic ideology. Teachers and researchers are pressed to serve those goals. In this concluding book in his series on the commons, Guy Standing shows us how education - intrinsically a common public good - has been enclosed, privatised, financialised and corrupted, turned into an instrument of societal control, not human emancipation, weakening democracy, not strengthening it. Human Capital charts how the education industry largely serves commercial interests, not its teachers and students, and considers how to revive its lost values, to save society for the common good.

A Book of the Year in the Daily Telegraph and EconomistLONGLISTED for the CWA ALCS Gold Dagger for Non-Fiction 2026'This book reads like a spy novel'FINANICAL TIMES'Entertaining and vivid'OBSERVER------------------------------------The astonishing story of the ten million books that were smuggled across the Iron Curtain during the Cold War.For almost five decades after the Second World War, Europe was divided by the longest and most heavily guarded border on earth. The Iron Curtain, a near-impenetrable barrier of wire and wall, tank traps, minefields, watchtowers and men with dogs, stretched for 4,300 miles from the Arctic to the Black Sea. No physical combat would take place along this frontier: the risk of nuclear annihilation was too high for that. Instead, the conflict would be fought in the psychological sphere. It was a battle for hearts, minds and intellects.No one understood this more clearly than George Minden, the head of a covert intelligence operation known as the 'CIA books programme', which aimed to win the Cold War with literature.From its Manhattan headquarters, Minden's global CIA 'book club' would infiltrate millions of banned titles into the Eastern Bloc, written by a vast and eclectic list of authors, including Hannah Arendt and Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, George Orwell and Agatha Christie. Volumes were smuggled on trucks and aboard yachts, dropped from balloons, and hidden in the luggage of hundreds of thousands of individual travellers. Once inside Soviet bloc, each book would circulate secretly among dozens of like-minded readers, quietly turning them into dissidents. Latterly, underground print shops began to reproduce the books, too. By the late 1980s, illicit literature in Poland was so pervasive that the system of communist censorship broke down, and the Iron Curtain soon followed.Charlie English tells this true story of spycraft, smuggling and secret printing operations for the first time, highlighting the work of a handful of extraordinary people who risked their lives to stand up to the intellectual strait-jacket Stalin created. People like Miroslaw Chojecki, an underground Polish publisher who endured beatings, force-feeding and exile in service of this mission. And Minden, the CIA's mastermind, who didn't waver in his belief that truth, culture, and diversity of thought could help free the 'captive nations' of Eastern Europe. This is a story about the power of the printed word as a means of resistance and liberation. Books, it shows, can set you free.

An intimate portrait of Yanis Varoufakis's political awakening, told through the history of his extraordinary family 'Gripping and unforgettable. It reads like a thriller' BRIAN ENO Dramatic in scope and deep in feeling, Raise Your Soul traces three generations swept up in the whirlwind of history, across a century of occupation, civil war, Cold War fracture and economic crisis, from 1924 to the present. At its heart are Eleni, Anna, Trisevgeni, Georgia and Danaë - the women who shaped the visionary economist most, and whose resilience and courage inspire us to resist the forces of authoritarianism that still haunt our world. 'Written with a historian's grasp of events, an economist's rationalisation of how things work and, most of all, a storyteller's understanding of the human condition, this is not just Varoufakis's story, but ours' IRVINE WELSH 'Beautiful and inspiring, I couldn't put it down' ROSIE HOLT 'Fierce ... to sit with Varoufakis's words is a gift' ESTHER ANATOLITIS

A Personal History of Resistance

Raise Your Soul

It can be enervating, stressful and, occasionally, triumphal—looking for work has never been more of a roller coaster. Now, in compelling testimonies, Search Work shares that experience, giving voice to those on the wild ride of finding a job.
Search Work&nbsp;asks what we uncover when we pause and examine the textures of something as mundane and tedious as the job hunt. In this anthology, made up of personal essays, archival job ads, labor research, and even a playscript, over fifty contributors reflect on the rituals, cultural artifacts, and emotional turbulence of looking for work. Their collective inquiry shows how and why the quest for a paycheck almost always morphs into something deeper—a search for belonging, a referendum on identity, a macro view of the systemic forces that govern our lives.&nbsp;Through a variety of formats and voices,&nbsp;Search Work&nbsp;shows how&nbsp;the labor&nbsp;of looking does more than land us a new job; it&nbsp;reshapes desire and alters our sense of self, sometimes for good.
The book was inspired by a free weekly newsletter that editor Rachel Meade Smith started ten&nbsp;years ago, Words of Mouth, which shares curated jobs and opportunities with an engaged community of over 70,000.&nbsp;From this community,&nbsp;Search Work&nbsp;brings together a diverse group of contributors—writers, artists, public servants, researchers, service workers, career changers, recent grads—to defang one of life's loneliest activities through an act of collaborative creation.
As entry-level paths vanish and AI redraws the labor map,&nbsp;Search Work&nbsp;offers a timely,&nbsp;refreshingly critical inquiry into the isolating and&nbsp;often&nbsp;absurd experience of job hunting.
