— You built exactly what you thought you wanted. You’re not sure it’s yours anymore.

— You left the stable thing. You can’t always tell if the doubt means the idea is wrong, or just that it’s hard.

— Something significant ended. You’re in the reconstruction.

— The person in your life might not get it.

— A coach is $300 an hour.

— Your co-founder doesn’t need to hear it again.

No More Bullsh*t is what you use when you need to think clearly and there’s nobody in the room.

Before You Smash the Computer

For when you keep thinking about leaving but can't figure out why you're still there.

Five questions. Not about whether to leave. About what's underneath the feeling that you might.

Every other journal gives you a question and a blank page.

We give you four.

That's not a small difference. It changes what you actually do with the prompt.

The journals give you 52 of these over a year. The reckonings draw from the same method, applied to one decision, one session, right now.

  • 01. The Prompt

    Not "what are you grateful for." The question you've been circling. The one that makes you put the journal down and pick up your phone instead.

  • 02. The Truth Trigger

    A paragraph beneath the prompt that names exactly what's happening: why this question is hard, what the avoidance looks like. You'll recognize yourself in it.

  • 03. The Through Line

    A structured page that helps you think it through. Not blank. Not open-ended. Designed to move you somewhere instead of leaving you to circle.

  • 04. The Deeper Cut + Mantra

    The follow-on question that goes beneath your first answer. Then one line to carry with you. The kind you're still thinking about on Thursday.

The Truth Trigger Method.

Every prompt is built on one principle: the first answer is almost never the real answer.

The Prompt surfaces what's on top. The Truth Trigger names what's underneath. The Through Line moves you through it. The Deeper Cut goes after what's left. By the time you hit the mantra, you've gotten somewhere. Not circled back to where you started.

  • "I opened it, read one question, and had to close it.
    That one question was all I could think about."

    Jess M.

  • "I've been scared to open it. I think that tells me I need to."

    Rachel T.

  • "I took it on vacation with me. It was the gift I gave myself."

    Simone A.

  • "It's tapping into a part of me I maybe don't want to face, but I need to face."

    Nina R., on The Real Life List

  • "It was really challenging. But it was what I needed to work through. I kept coming back to it."

    Dana K.

  • "I've teared up reading through your notes. They're so clever. I felt like I wasn't doing this alone."

    Claire B.

The Together Series

Some questions are better worked through with someone else. Five conversations built for two. For the long drive, the dinner table, or the conversation you keep almost having.

For the Road Trip. Over a Glass of Wine. Fireside with your person, your sibling, your parent.

Pick one. Go there.

A note from Karissa

I didn't make this because I had answers.
I made it because I kept buying journals that gave me beautiful blank pages
and zero help getting honest.

I needed something with structure. Something that wouldn't let me off easy.
Something that asked the follow-up question I'd been avoiding.

So I built it.

If you're here, you already know you're ready for something real.
Trust that.

Karissa, Creator of No More Bullsh*t

The stories behind the questions.

Every prompt came from somewhere. A season I was in. Something I kept circling. A question I couldn't stop asking myself at 2am.

The Substack is where I write about what's underneath the journals and the reckonings. Why a specific question exists, what it cost me to ask it honestly, and what I'm still figuring out.

If the prompts did something for you, this is where the conversation continues.

You already know where you need to go.

You just need to find your direction.

The questions you've been avoiding. The structure to actually answer them. Whenever you're ready.
