"Why Didn't Anybody Tell Me This Sh*t Before?"
This is the book you wish you had already read. A collection of more than 60 letters from female leaders of multimillion-dollar companies, solopreneurs, and every kind of woman in between, these stories are both a lifeline and a roadmap for women navigating our increasingly complex world.
The Choices Are Real
From being the only woman in the room in “old boys’ club” businesses, to making the impossible choices between cherished work and family, to dealing with loss, anger, and fear, these stories have hard-earned lessons to teach all of us.
Stories full of inspiration
But it’s not all battle scars and suffering—like all good stories, these pages are shot through with laughter, growth, and triumph too.
So if you’ve felt alone or wondered when the right mentor or community is going to appear, you can stop searching.
This book is your invitation to learn from the experience of women just like you—to borrow from their strength, courage, and fierce will to succeed and to take your place in this community of women who, day by day, are quietly changing the world.
