Pitching doesn't have to feel like selling your soul. If you've ever frozen up when someone asked, "So, what do you do?"-this book is your antidote. Pitch Yourself Without Cringing is a modular, emotionally intelligent guide for creatives, coaches, introverts, and anyone allergic to sleazy self-promotion.

Instead of forcing you into a one-size-fits-all elevator pitch, this book helps you build a flexible, shame-free toolkit of "pitch pieces"-small, authentic ways to talk about your work without sounding like a walking LinkedIn ad. You'll learn how to:

• Craft a pitch that feels like you, not a sales script
• Use humor, metaphor, and micro-stories to connect with your audience
• Navigate visibility blocks, imposter syndrome, and "ick" feelings with compassion
• Build modular intros for bios, interviews, networking, and social media
• Create rituals and reframes that make self-promotion feel like self-honor

Whether you're launching a project, changing careers, or just tired of hiding your brilliance, this book offers a playful, validating path to being seen-without selling out.

No jargon. No hype. Just you, showing up with clarity and confidence.
