OverviewYour profession is changing. You can feel it. Maybe your employer just adopted an AI tool that does in minutes what used to take you days. Maybe the job postings in your field are drying up. Maybe you're watching colleagues get laid off and wondering when your number comes up. Maybe you're just sitting with a low-grade dread that won't go away. Still Standing is the book for this exact moment. Written by a collective of five voices spanning workforce economics, technology, psychology, entrepreneurship, and lived career disruption - this guide covers the 20 professions facing the most immediate AI displacement: paralegals, content writers, customer service reps, bookkeepers, radiologists, financial analysts, translators, software testers, graphic designers, recruiters, journalists, pharmacists, and more. For each profession, you'll find: - An honest assessment of what AI can now do in your field - What remains irreducibly human (your fortress zones) - A realistic timeline for disruption - 4 concrete pivot strategies with specific next steps - A ""Lucia Moment"" - a raw, first-person account from someone living the transition Beyond the 20 professions, Still Standing provides: - The 90-Day Career Assessment framework - The AI-Augmented Professional model (4 levels) - Financial resilience planning for career transitions - The 7 Irreducible Human Skills that AI cannot automate - A complete entrepreneurial toolkit - 7 businesses anyone can start - The Seam Finder Exercise - a 30-minute tool to map your personal strategy - Psychological frameworks for navigating identity change and grief - Policy guidance and collective action strategies - Future trajectory analysis through 2030 Backed by a 60-source bibliography drawing on research from MIT, McKinsey, the World Economic Forum, Harvard Business School, and leading AI researchers. This book does not sugarcoat. It does not catastrophize. It tells you what is actually happening, acknowledges that it is genuinely hard, and gives you a concrete plan. Because you deserve better than ""just learn to code."" You deserve a map. This is it.
