  • The 50% Rule, her upcoming book launching in October 2024, which explores how to disrupt hustle culture and create space for honesty and balance

Beyond writing, Erin co-hosts the podcast b Cause Work Doesn’t Have to Suck, where she and her guests share unfiltered stories and workplace wisdom.

Data-Driven Proof of Authenticity’s Power
