An irreverent and self-deprecating memoir by a successful and ambitious career woman who woke up one morning and realised she didn't want to go to work - not just that day, but ever again. Kasey Edwards had a glamorous, successful and highly coveted career, flying around the world consulting to blue-chip organisations and commanding a six-figure salary. But all of a sudden her job didn't seem quite so challenging or glamorous, the role she'd been playing as a high-powered business woman felt phoney, and her whole life lost its zing. Kasey embarked on a journey of discovery into why she'd lost her purpose and meaning, and what she needed to do to find it again. Kasey also follows the story of her best friend, Emma, a senior marketing executive suffering a similar crisis. Both Emma and Kasey are well and truly over it, yet their approaches - and the results - are very different. Written with great honesty and wit, THIRTY SOMETHING AND OVER IT is a memoir for modern women seeking the key to life, love and happiness.

Kasey Edwards has everything she's always wanted: a successful career and the lifestyle and assets to match. But she's empty and uninspired and doesn't want to go to work . . . Ever again. Terrified that she'll spend the rest of her life wearing pinstripes and pretending to care about 'adding value', Kasey embarks on a quest to rediscover passion and purpose in her life and work. We follow her on a journey of self-discovery as she looks for meaning in a puppy's eyes, begs her gynaecologist to cure her existential crisis, dabbles with the Law of Attraction and braves ten days of silent meditation. Meanwhile, her best friend Emma, who is experiencing a similar crisis, concentrates her search in the fields of casual sex and vodka shots. This irreverent yet poignant memoir will make you question our definition of the 'perfect life', laugh at the absurdity of the modern workplace and be warmed by the story of a friendship. Rise above your office cubicle for a moment and join Kasey in asking life's big questions - and find the courage to listen to your answers.

The story that lurks between the facts. What they do not know—the cause of the argument—is crucial. So let me tell you...

Here, she explores what having a child would mean to her identity, her career, her body, her relationships, and her mental health. She speaks to people who have children and people who don't, women who claim motherhood is the best thing they've ever done and those who say it's the worst. She discovers how the desire for a baby can drive people to the brink of insanity, the logistical challenges of ovulating and trying to conceive on a longhaul flight, the indignity and despair of IVF, and the price of buying sperm on the internet. This witty memoir will make readers laugh, cry, and ponder the joys and regrets of motherhood. It will also inspire readers to tackle the baby issue head-on and on their own terms, rather than letting time, denial, and social pressures make the decision for them.
