'Insightful, inspirational and SO much fun' Marian Keyes 'People Pleaser is like therapy in rom-com form' Beth O'Leary 'Completely addictive. A hard yes from me - I flew through it' Vogue Williams Meet Olivia Greenwood. Unfiltered. Unashamed. Unapologetic. Or at least, she's about to be . . . Olivia has been trying very hard to please people for a very long time. Whilst her husband's doing burpees, she's doing everything else. She smiles through yet another 'opportunity' that isn't a promotion. And she says yes to her mother, when what she really means is no. But today, everything is going to change . . . After soul-crushing career disappointment, a fiery young woman with a chip on her shoulder, and a single blue hallucinogenic gummy lead to a raucous night, Olivia wakes up the next morning, fresh out of f**ks to give and unable to please anyone but HERSELF. So who actually is Olivia Greenwood when she's not trying to be what everyone else wants her to be? Warm, witty and empowering, this is the story of one woman's journey to stop people-pleasing and start living for herself.
