My new book: You Can Just Do Things out now
A dream unfolding...
Wow. Here we are.
I can’t believe I finally get to say this…
Today is the day my new book is officially out.
It’s called You Can Just Do Things. And honestly, I wasn’t sure I’d ever finish it.
I told myself it was too early. Too much going on. Who am I to write a book?
But I kept coming back to one thing..
Everywhere I looked, I saw people with big ideas - smart, capable people - holding themselves back. Not because they weren’t skilled enough. But because they thought they needed someone to give them permission to start.
The artist who hesitates to show their work, thinking it’s not perfect.
The entrepreneur who waits for funding before making a single move.
The recent graduate who skips applying to their dream job, assuming they don’t meet every qualification.
The athlete who never sends their highlight tape to coaches, afraid of “bothering them”.
The corporate worker stuck in a rut who knows they’re meant for more.
I wrote this book for them.
For anyone who’s felt stuck waiting for a sign, the perfect credentials, or somebody else’s approval.
This book is a reminder that you don’t need to wait.
And now, it’s real.
To be honest, I’m pretty nervous. Maybe more than I’ve ever been. This is the most important moment of my professional life. And I’ve been dreaming of it since I was a kid.
If you’d like to help spread the word, I’d be incredibly grateful.
A few kind ways to do that:
Leave a review: If you read the book and enjoyed it, I’d be so thankful if you took the time to share a review on Amazon or Goodreads so others can read it too.
Share a photo of the book in the wild: If you want to help me spread the word, I’d love it if you shared a photo of the book and tagged me on Twitter, Instagram, or LinkedIn.
Introductions: If you or someone you know has a platform (newsletter, podcast, YouTube, etc.) or speaks with ambitious young people, and you’d like to make an introduction, please reply to this email.
And if none of that feels right, that’s okay too. Just knowing you’re here means the world.
I’ve been reading your messages with a full heart. This book came to life because people like you kept showing up.
My hope is that something inside it nudges you toward the thing you’ve been sitting on.
This book is your permission slip.
But the truth is, you’ve always had it.
With love,
Jay
