Mastering My Messy Life is a love letter to every woman who has ever felt like she was too much, or not enough, or somehow both at once.

This isn’t just another influencer or entrepreneur memoir. It’s a human one. Tangents guaranteed. This book tells the story behind the captions – the mess behind the magic. It’s about a girl who always felt the world spun too fast, and who didn’t have a voice growing up. How she shared her life online thinking no one would care – only to end up helping hundreds of thousands of people turn their chaos into clarity. All while still managing to lose her phone in the fridge, regularly.

If you've always felt like the black sheep, if you’re burnt-­ out from being ‘on’ all the time, or you secretly believe you could do something amazing (if you could just get out of your head and your own way)... this book is for you.

Have you ever looked to social media for life inspiration and thought: that looks great, but nothing online remotely relates to my chaotic life?

Steph Pase wasn’t meant to be the woman with the colour- coded pantry, successful company, a 5 a.m. morning routine and hundreds of thousands of followers asking for her organisation tips. She was just a kid with a bowl cut, a brain that never slowed down and hands that couldn’t catch a ball to save her life.

Written in a heartfelt yet frequently funny confessional tone, Steph takes us through the key moments that led to her becoming the powerhouse woman she is today – from a chaotic childhood marked by trauma, binge drinking and an ADHD brain that never stopped, to starting a business from her garage with a baby strapped to her chest and a head full of self-doubt.

Filled with actionable advice throughout, Mastering My Messy Life is not just another memoir – it’s a human story, mess and all. Told mid-panic attack, mid-laundry and mid-figuring-it-out.

A real-life tragicomedy about growth, overcoming obstacles and learning how to live your best life using the most reliable tool at your disposal: yourself.

Steph Pase is an entrepreneur, media personality, writer, mother and wife. She runs a successful stationery and lifestyle brand, Steph Pase Planners, and an online community of more than one million followers, all while convincing her kids to eat something other than chicken nuggets and losing her phone in the fridge.

REVIEWS

A raw, unflinching and deeply human exploration of anxiety, trauma and the everyday chaos we often hide behind closed doors. This memoir is like stepping into a world that’s at once intensely personal yet also profoundly relatable. Raw, honest, and full of heart. Unputdownable.

This book isn’t polished perfection, it’s the real deal. It’s proof that you can live a full, beautiful life without hiding the messy parts, and that sometimes the very things you think will break you are the ones that make you. Steph has always inspired me, but seeing her put these pages into the world makes me prouder than I can say. I know anyone who reads it will walk away feeling understood, uplifted and a little braver to embrace their own chaos.

Chontel Duncan
Neuform Founder

Steph Pase’s memoir is seriously raw and real. What we love is how she blends that honesty with a wonderful sense of humour, making it both inspiring and easy to relate to. Her courage to be so open and vulnerable is truly something special. We know so many people will feel seen and less alone after reading this. It’s a powerful, honest story that sticks with you long after you finish it.

I love this, it speaks to me so much after my own journey with years of anxiety and undiagnosed adhd, now diagnosed and finally getting more organised!

Customer photo review of 'Mastering My Messy Life' by Steph Pase

If you asked me about my opinion on this book, I’d tell you “It’s great, give it a read.” But if you asked me on a deeper level… I’ve never cried and laughed at the same time while reading a book, and this book speaks to my soul. I can’t believe that someone who I looked up to when I was 15 has an internal monologue like mine when her audience is usually women 30+ and mums. If you had been treated like a child with adult responsibilities growing up, or if someone has made their stress your stress, this book is for you. What doesn’t get talked about enough in this book is the strongest way that love can be expressed whether it’s romantic or platonic. Making it a priority to understand someone is not something you can ask for, it’s something you can only give with initiative, and seeing that in this book is truly beautiful. I’m glad Ryan and Steph’s Nan have given that to her and I know she reciprocates it because she’s been doing it her whole life with her brother Ady and others!

Truly a beautiful story Steph 💞 you should be so proud of yourself. Your Nan & your Dad would be. Took this fresh book to Bali with me (just got back late last night) have 3 chapters left!! I haven't been able to put it down! Was so awesome to read the part when you found out you were first pregnant, I could put myself in the scene while I was in Bali myself 😂 P.S, don't ever shut SPP down 💞

I just finished your book. I feel speechless, whilst also crying with all the emotions. Thank you for making women feel seen. It was so relatable and inspiring and so beautifully written. I’m so grateful penguin took a chance. This one will stick with me for a long time. I have had an itch to write about my experiences previously and you have made me feel empowered. If people can be interested to read what you have to say, maybe I have a message to share as well. We all have so much to be grateful for with your journey, as you help women everyday. Thank you

I dont read many books because ADHD makes it hard to finish them but this!!!! Had me from the first word and I can not put it down

'Mastering My Messy Life' by Steph Pase

Steph Pase’s honesty and humour shine through in every chapter. This book is like a warm conversation with a wise friend—full of practical advice, relatable stories, and gentle encouragement. It’s not about perfection; it’s about embracing life’s messiness and learning to thrive anyway. I finished it feeling inspired, motivated, and ready to take small steps toward a calmer, more intentional life.

Loved it! Raw, honest and truly us as Australians. So pleased for you Steph and thankful I kept scrolling and stumbed across SPP looking for a planner after whistle & birch planners must’ve stopped? Thank you and best wishes to you Steph, Ryan, Girls and families and all the staff at SPP. Hope you all have a special Christmas xx Jeanette

Mastering My Messy Life by Steph Pase is one of those rare books that makes you feel every emotion in the best possible way. I found myself smiling like a total goofball, giggling, laughing out loud, tearing up, and even letting out those soft little “awww” moments that only happen when something truly touches your heart. I’ve followed Steph on Instagram for years, always feeling that little spark of connection through her posts. But after reading this book, I genuinely feel like I know her. She opens up in such a real, raw, relatable way that it felt like having a long, honest chat with a friend who just gets it. So many of her stories, thoughts, and struggles hit home for me. This book isn’t just beautifully written — it’s comforting, inspiring, and grounding. It made me reflect, it made me laugh, and it made me feel seen. I’d happily read it again and again. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, messy, human, or just in need of a little warmth, this book is a gift. Steph has poured her heart into these pages, and you can feel it. A gorgeous read from start to finish
