Sara has invested years dutifully climbing the corporate ladder to become head of PR at a major financial services company, but can't shake the feeling she's not where she belongs. When her latest boss, a wine-guzzling, drama-loving diva, finally drives her to the brink, Sara seeks sanctuary in yoga-teacher training...only to encounter an entirely different assortment of craziness and calamity. Where in the OM Am I? is an irreverent, honest, and hilarious memoir chronicling one woman's journey from the fast-paced, cutthroat corporate world, to the slow-paced, surprisingly catty, and sometimes perilous world of yoga. Along the way, Sara confronts the harsh reality of working in a male-dominated industry, the challenges of being a corporate interloper in the yoga community, and the complexity of interactions between women in both realms. As epic mishaps beget personal revelations, Sara digs deep for the courage to forge a new life for herself.

Selected by Shape Magazine as one of 12 Best Books to Take to the Beach. "Sara's irreverent and hilarious memoir details her journey of self-discovery as she moves from corporate to corpse pose." Featured on Shape.com.
"...Reads like the best of chick lit, but with far deeper self-reflection...A must-read for yogis (or would-be yogis) who enjoy a little snarkiness with their savasana." --Kirkus Reviews
"The Devil Wears Prada meets Eat, Pray, Love in this engaging, inspiring tale of self-discovery. DiVello blends keen cultural observation with a terrifically wry wit as she balances her soul-killing corporate career with the world of New Age poseurs and guru-loving sycophants of her yoga teacher training. A great read for anyone who has ever sat in a cubicle, dreaming of escape." --Kathleen Flinn, New York Times best-selling author, The Sharper Your Knife, the Less You Cry
"When Sara DiVello tries to fold a yoga practice into her miserable, mirthless corporate finance career, she realizes even the so-called enlightened aren't immune to back-stabbing bitchery. Raw, real and at times deeply, darkly funny, Where in the OM Am I? shows you a side of yoga you may not have known existed. If you think your job sucks, this book will be more welcome than an extra-long corpse pose at the end of a grueling class." --Jenna McCarthy, author of If It Was Easy They'd Call the Whole Damn Thing a Honeymoon
"For the type-A, neurotic, career girl or anyone climbing the corporate ladder and hating it, you need to read this book." --Beth Orsoff, best-selling author of Vlad All Over
Selected as one of the 8 best memoirs of the summer. "Where in the OM Am I? is a just-right read for anyone needing a good laugh or just a little inspiration to make a change." --Working Mother
