Quite Ready

Bag om Quite Ready

Quite Ready is a chronicle of what gets left behind on the journey to the top. From rural Tennessee to the glittering lights of Tokyo and New York, Rebecca had it all. After clawing her way out of humble beginnings, she returned to Tokyo in the summer of 2019 to celebrate the hard-earned victories of her effort. But one devastating phone call from back home turned everything she thought she knew about success upside down. In this self-revelatory story, Rebecca turns an unflinching lens on the toxic culture of grit at all costs. She uses her own experiences to examine how forcing our way through pain instead of addressing it leaves even the most independent and ambitious of us lonely, depressed, and one dark day away from an unhappy ending. It's a true account of how relentless self-determination and desperation for success almost killed her. Through honest self-examination and some help from experts, real and ethereal, Rebecca demonstrates how anyone can regain control of their personal narrative and come out liberated and happier for it. But we'd better be quite ready to do the hard work and experience a little bit of suffering to get what we want.
