When you’re scared of something, whatever it is, you have to go at it head on. You create your own destiny.

Today you are You, that is truer than true. There is no one alive who is Youer than You.
Your reality is yours and yours alone. And it should be as fabulous as you want it to be.
None of those things would have happened, however, if I did not believe they were possible. If they can happen for me, they can surely happen for you, too. You’ve just got to believe. You’ve got to believe, with all of your heart, that you can make it happen for yourself.

You must release blame, guilt, fear, stress, and any other negative emotion that does not serve you.

And when you tap into that, you give your clients and your audience something they’ve never had before, and something they’ll never get again from anyone else. You give them yourself.
You have to stop comparing yourself to everyone else. You’ve got to stop being who you think you should be, and start being who you truly are.
Above all, be the heroine of your life, not the victim.
Above all, be the heroine of your life, not the victim.” – Nora Ephron
If you’re feeling lost, or wishing you had a mentor or a positive role model, know that you have everything within you to inspire yourself. Dig deep within your soul and call upon your strengths to push you forward. Look back to situations where you overcame, and use those moments to prove to yourself that you can do anything and be anyone you want to be.
It works because it’s mine. Just like your formula will only work for you.
Why has this formula worked? Because it is my own. It wouldn’t work if I were replicating another person’s idea. It works because it’s mine. Just like your formula will only work for you.

About the book

I am witnessing a phenomenon. It seems as though a growing group women entrepreneurs all around the world has discovered the secret to success and happiness in both their lives and careers. It's almost as though there is a hidden, underground world of power playing females who have all cracked a magical they think positively, they support one another, and they truly believe they can have it all -and you can, too. There is something dynamic that happens when women genuinely show up for each other. When we lose the facades, when we cut the bullsh*t, and when we truly have each others backs. When we stop pretending everything is perfect, and we show the messy, beautiful parts of ourselves and our work that all look awfully similar. When we talk about our fears, our missteps, and our breakdowns. And most importantly, when we share our celebrations, our breakthroughs, and dish on what works.
