Can’t I Just Want Something More? is a practical, hopeful guide for adults who feel the pull toward a different life—but aren’t sure where to start, or if it’s even possible.

If you’ve spent years building a career, a reputation, and a version of yourself that no longer fits, you’re not alone. Changing direction in midlife can feel overwhelming, embarrassing, or even reckless. But the truth is: wanting something more isn’t a crisis. It’s clarity. And it might be the best decision you ever make.

This book will help you:

• Understand the emotional side of career transition—identity, fear, confidence, and the stories we tell ourselves about success

• Recognize the skills and experience you already have, even if they don’t look obvious from the outside

• Navigate doubt, burnout, and the pressure of expectations

• Build a realistic plan, from career exploration to rebranding, finances, and practical next steps

• Design a future that feels meaningful, energizing, and aligned with who you are now—not who you used to be

You’re not starting over.
You’re starting from experience.
Everything you’ve done until now has prepared you for what comes next.

Whether you’re considering a new path, actively changing careers, or trying to figure out what you want, this book will help you move forward with confidence and purpose—one honest step at a time.

Your life isn’t over. It’s just getting interesting.
