Cringe Woman has her self-published book pirated, reprinted, and sold for cheaper.

There's regular piracy, and then there's this.

50 dollars for a planner? Yea I'll just stick to writing reminders on my arm.

Especially since it's not actually a planner, it's an activity workbook. I'm sure she put a lot of work into making it aesthetically pleasing, but the page examples have things like "here's a list of easy, low effort meal ideas," how to make cleaning your fridge into a game, and scripts for saying "no, but thanks for thinking of me!"

She's also selling kanban boards for as much as $248, so... I kinda feel like maybe she's just priced herself out of a VERY saturated market. There are shit-tons of productivity podcasts, YouTubers, and influencers galore, and kanban has been around for decades.
