Produktbeschreibung
Brutally honest, funny, and empathetic, No Lost Causes Club is a guide to the process of sobering up when it feels like the party's just getting started, from the voice of the popular Instagram account @brutalrecovery. At age twenty-five, Lauren McQuistin was firmly instructed by her doctor to get sober. But wasn't sobriety for middle-class, middle-aged people who'd "lost everything"? She felt not far gone enough--and also much too far gone. Five years later, she's sober and has lived to tell the tale. In No Lost Causes Club, she takes the trademark brutally honest humor and empathetic emotional wisdom of her popular Instagram, @brutalrecovery, and provides a step-by-step guide through the process of sobering up when it feels like the party's just getting started; not just making that initial decision to change, but dealing with every stage of what follows, from handling the difficult facts and feelings you've been avoiding, to how on earth to have a one night stand without shots. In her inimitable tone of the world's wisest older sister, Lauren reinvigorates quit-lit for the younger millennial and Gen Z audience, doling out practical advice and emotional support through the messiness, guilt, and confusion that come with figuring out what life you want and how to build it for yourself.

Autorenporträt
Lauren McQuistin is a London-based Scottish musician and writer. No Lost Causes Club, her debut book, is based on her multiple years of sobriety and her Instagram page @brutalrecovery. There she creates content for recovering humans looking for identification, and a message with equal parts humor and hope. Lauren was a professional opera singer, winning the district round of the Metropolitan National Opera Competition three times. She uses her experience as a musician to teach trauma-informed musicianship, and has been featured in the Journal of Singing for her research on the subject of trauma's impact on the voice.
