Welcome to No F*cks Given® with Sarah Knight!

Self-help, self-care, no bullshit: direct to your inbox

Oct 10, 2023

In January 2020,

reached out to me about hosting more of my sweary self-help work on this platform. At the time, I was up to the gills promoting my fifth book in five years, I already had a newsletter to keep up with, and I was looking forward to taking some time off: traveling, seeing long-neglected friends and family, that kind of thing.

Then the you-know-what happened and all I could reasonably look forward to was a vaccine, whilst attempting to stave off existential dread on the daily. Good times!

I was scared shitless, deeply depressed, and in no shape to communicate regularly with my cats—let alone with thousands of people relying on me for weekly doses of wisdom, entertainment, and baller life advice. Not exactly on-brand for an internationally bestselling self-help guru known for “calming the fuck down” and “getting your shit together,” but: unprecedented times and all that.

Anyway—three years, two more books, a podcast, and about 125,000 milligrams of Zoloft later, here we are.

Welcome to No F*cks Given® with Sarah Knight

The brand-new, one-stop shop for all of my online work, delivered straight to your inbox.

Since 2015, I’ve been writing, speaking, and podcasting about universal issues like work, relationships, finances, and mental health in a candid and accessible way. I’ve helped millions of people around the world (yes, actual millions!) figure out what they want and how to get it—and now I’m bringing it all to Substack.

What you get with a PAID subscription:

Fun weekly emails containing practical strategies for improving your life, from the daily grind to the big picture. Like this or this.
Access to the NFG community and private discussion threads with me. I call these “Thursday Threads” and I do them twice a month. You’ll get an email when they happen and it’s easy to join from there!
Bonus Fucks Given: Twice a month, you’ll get exclusive extras from me to you. It might be a more in-depth nugget of NFG wisdom (like this); a more personal post about the challenges of being a human in the world (like this); audio content that I haven’t figured out how to do yet but is totally coming soon; or perhaps a most excellent flowchart (like this).

What you get with a FREE subscription:

My monthly-ish NFG Newsletter (here’s the latest edition) and occasional public posts.

Why subscribe?

My suggestions for no-fucks-given best-life-livin’ are fun to take, easy to implement, and effective AF. Come for the naughty words and stay for the truly life-changing advice!

I mean, I don’t want to sprain anything patting myself on the back, but there’s a reason my sweary self-help books have been on bestseller lists all over the world, my podcast hit #1 on the Apple Education charts, and my TEDx Talk has more than 10 million views.

My tips? THEY WORK. Topics include but are not limited to:

Plus, you’ll get deal alerts for my books and journals, links to interviews and events, random AF personal updates about life in the tropics (for real, I moved from Brooklyn to the Dominican Republic in 2016), and tales of my trash cats, Gladys Knight and Mister Stussy.

Honestly, why WOULDN’T you sign up for that?

Whether you decide to subscribe for free or upgrade to a paid membership, thanks for joining me in this new venture! I’m thrilled to have you here, and I can’t wait to see what 2024 has in store for all things NFG.
