What if your decades of experience became the reason they stopped seeing you?
Rachel is 58.
A former department head.
A mentor to many.
A woman who once held her entire office together with a well-organized calendar, three different color highlighters, and a smile that hid the exhaustion of being taken for granted.
And now?
She’s unemployed. Overqualified. Ignored by recruiters who claim to "love her background" and then ghost her completely. The career she built with loyalty, hustle, and late nights has vanished in a single HR email titled “Strategic Realignment.”
But this isn’t a sob story. This is a reckoning.
My Age is Not a Liability. Your Bias Is. is a groundbreaking novel told in 80 sharp, vulnerable, and bitingly funny chapters — chronicling the life of a woman who refuses to disappear quietly just because society decided her “best years” are behind her. Through Rachel’s eyes, we witness what it’s like to build a career from scratch, be praised for being dependable, and then quietly erased the moment youth and buzzwords take the spotlight.
From her early clipboard-wielding childhood to being the “glue” in corporate boardrooms to getting passed over in favor of people she trained, Rachel’s story is deeply personal — and universally relatable.
This is a book for anyone who’s ever:
Been told they’re “too experienced” to be hired
Watched someone less qualified get promoted because they “fit the culture”
Been praised for being reliable… until they started setting boundaries
Been expected to lead without being given the title — or the pay
Started questioning their worth after one too many rejection emails
Felt invisible in a room they used to run
Told in fierce, first-person storytelling, Rachel walks us through the painful realities of ageism, gender bias, burnout, reinvention, and the audacity to keep going when the system has already counted you out.
But more than a critique of modern work culture, this novel is a love letter — to the clipboard girl who started it all. To the woman still inside. To everyone who is starting over later in life, not because they failed… but because the system failed them.
You’ll laugh. You’ll cry. You’ll feel seen.
And if you’ve ever whispered, “I’m not done yet” — this story is yours, too.
