“Introverts will love this practical and moving guide to building a career, network, and life you love.” - Susan Cain, author of Quiet From the marketing guru and host of the popular podcast Hiding in the Bathroom, a breakthrough introverts' guide that broadens the conversation sparked by Quiet and moves away from the "Lean In" approach, offering wisdom and practical tips to help readers build strong relationships and achieve their own definition of professional success.Most ambitious people believe that reaching the peaks of success means being on 24/7—tirelessly networking, deal-making, and keynoting conferences. This is nonsense, says Morra Aarons-Mele. As an eminent entrepreneur with a flourishing business and a self-proclaimed introvert with lots of anxieties, Morra disagrees with the notion that there’s only one successful "type": the intense, super social, sleep-deprived mover and shaker, the person who musters endless amounts of "grit." Hiding in the Bathroom is her antidote for everyone who is fed up with feeling like they must always "lean in"—who prefer those moments of hiding in the bathroom to constantly climbing the ladder or working the room.Morra knows what it takes to make your mark, and now, this entrepreneur who has boosted the online strategy of clients such as the Malala Fund, President Obama, the UN Foundation, and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation shares the insights, tricks, and knowledge she’s learned. Filled with advice, exercises to help readers evaluate their own work/life fit and manage anxiety, valuable tools, and stories of countless successful people—entrepreneurs, academics, and novices just beginning their careers—Hiding in the Bathroom empowers professionals of all ages and levels to take control and build their own versions of success. Thoughtful and practical, it is a must-have handbook for building a fantastic, prosperous career and a balanced, happy life—on your own terms.

About the Author

If you’re feeling anxious right now, you’re not alone. The world is scary, and nothing seems certain except uncertainty. How can you work with authority and strength when you feel anxious? How can you inspire and motivate others when your mind and heart are racing? This is what I tackle in my new book, The Anxious Achiever: Turn Your Biggest Fears into Your Leadership Superpower, to be released by Harvard Business Review Press in April 2023. I am a podcast host, writer, entrepreneur, mother, and communications executive. I live outside Boston with my family and an assortment of pets. I host The Anxious Achiever podcast, a top-10 Management podcast and 2020 Webby Awards honoree. I'm one of ten thought leaders named LinkedIn’s Top Voices in Mental Health for 2022. Passionate about helping people rethink the relationship between their mental health and their success, I consult for Fortune 500 companies, startups, and US government agencies. In addition to my contribution to workplace mental health, I founded Women Online, the award-winning social impact agency and I sold it in 2021. I've helped three US presidential candidates and a range of mission-driven organizations create communications, marketing, and fundraising campaigns. I'm a longtime blogger who's covered the campaign trail, the White House, the lactation room, and the office cubicle. I've written for The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, Fast Company, among other publications. My first book, the Amazon bestseller Hiding in the Bathroom: How To Get Out There (When You’d Rather Stay Home), was published by Dey Street Books in 2017 and is available in 4 languages.
