After the Wave: Stillness, Meaning, and Art of Starting Over: 1

The headlines say your job is disappearing. The experts say upskill or die. Everyone has an opinion about AI - and none of them make you feel better.This book says: breathe.After the Wave is for the person at the kitchen table, phone face-down, coffee going cold, wondering what comes next. Not what to do next - what to feel next. How to find solid ground when everything familiar is shifting.Written by Tiago Villares - a former digital strategist who walked away from a London career, spent three years studying Zen philosophy in Japan, and returned to find a world transformed by AI - this book offers something the other AI books don't: a place to stand.Drawing on Eastern philosophy, three years of coaching people through AI-driven career transitions, and the Portuguese habit of sitting with things until they make sense, After the Wave is a quiet, honest companion for anyone who feels the tremor and needs to find their footing before they can move forward.You won't find productivity hacks here. No five-step framework. No promises about the future.You'll find something to stand on.For readers of Jenny Odell, Cal Newport, and Oliver Burkeman.
