Are We Friends or Coworkers? Exploring Relationships at Work


Dispatch: May 30th, 2025

Hey Rebel Reader,

The third Changing Work book just dropped:

Are We Friends or Coworkers? Exploring Relationships at Work

This one’s close to the home.

It’s about the blurry lines, quiet tensions, and rare moments of real connection that show up when we try to be human in spaces that often reward the opposite.

From ride-or-die friendships that start over bad office coffee to heartbreaks, betrayals, and burnout from messy team dynamics this book has it all.

For today only, grab the e-book for just $3.99.
Explore the truth of what it means to be in relationship… at work.
