How to Talk About Your Work – Essential Techniques to Make People Actually Care

Struggling to explain what you do? This book fixes that.

Ever tried to explain your work to someone—only to watch their eyes glaze over? Do people nod politely and immediately forget everything you just said? Are you constantly saying, “It’s kind of hard to explain…” before awkwardly fumbling through a vague, uninspired description of your job?

If so, you need this book.

What You’ll Get from This Book:

• How to talk about your work in a way that actually makes sense to people, even if it’s technical, abstract, or boring.
• The secret to keeping people interested instead of them tuning you out the second you open your mouth.
• The art of the perfect elevator pitch so you can explain your work in 30 seconds or less without sounding like a corporate drone.
• How to sell your work without sounding salesy or feeling like a sleazy used car dealer.
• The power of storytelling—turn your job into an engaging story people actually want to hear.
• How to handle skeptics, critics, and people who just don’t get it without getting defensive.
• Why jargon is your worst enemy and how to replace it with clear, memorable language.
• How to make even the most “boring” job sound exciting—because no, it’s not your job that’s boring, it’s how you’re explaining it.
• Confidence hacks for talking about your work in meetings, interviews, networking events, and even social situations.
• Practical exercises after every chapter so you actually apply what you learn.

• Anyone Who’s Ever Said, “It’s Hard to Explain What I Do” – Seriously, just get this book.

Why This Book Works

• Engaging, sarcastic, and actually fun to read. Because no one needs another dry, lifeless business book.
• Real examples and exercises. This isn’t just theory—you’ll practice and refine your message at every step.

• Explain your work clearly and confidently.
