Girl Code
Girl Code: Unlocking the Secrets to Success, Sanity, and Happiness for the Female Entrepreneur | Cara Alwill Leyba
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 code: 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. There is no reason to hoard information, connections, or insight. Wisdom is meant to be shared, so let's start sharing what we've learned to make each other better. Let's start building each other up. Let's live up to our potential and start ruling the world. GIRL CODE is a roadmap for female entrepreneurs, professional women, "side hustlers" (those with a day job who are building a business on the side), and anyone in between who wants to become a better woman. This book will not teach you how to build a multimillion dollar business. It won't teach you about systems or operational processes. But it will teach you how to build confidence in yourself, reconnect with your "why," eradicate jealousy, and ultimately learn the power of connection. Because at the end of the day, that's what life and business is all about.

A lot of the information is self-explanatory. The problem is that we often know what to do and fail to act on it. Provides great insights on how women and girls can be each others cheerleaders or well-wishers. A great look at the gender biases as we view others and ourselves.

I️ really liked the idea behind this book, but for something that was supposed to be strong in feminist ideas, I️ felt like some of it was a bit stereotypical. I️ just feel like the author could have done more to make this message something that all women can relate to, not just the ones who lust over Chanel bags and champagne.

I spy booooks! Everyone thought it was a terrible idea to put books in the raffle basket for my work's networking event. 😭 I hope people end up liking it...I guess bibliophiles are a rare breed anymore?

Rachel.Rencher @JacqMac @LauraBrook Awh, thank you! I think they wanted a straight up spa basket, but when I was shopping my mind went to relaxing Saturday night basket. Spa baskets are so been there, done that. 😂 7y
JacqMac Agreed! A perfect spa is at home, in my tub, with a good book. 7y

You can tell I was involved in putting together the raffle basket for work when there are books in it. 😂

Nobody will notice if this doesn't make it to the event, right? (Kidding!)

This was a mostly inspiring read, definitely left me with some pearls of wisdom. I don't know if I ended up with an ARC by accident, (bought online) but there were a fair number of pretty glaring typos and editorial mistakes that really took me out of the whole, I'm a badass businesswoman who's here to give you advice, thing. But otherwise, I liked it.
