        Kerpen, host of the podcast All the Social Ladies, gives practical advice for women who want to pursue their dream careers. The book is divided into three parts, devoted to career planning, life decisions, and common fears. In each one, readers receive advice not only from Kerpen but also from 50 powerful women interviewed for the book, including realtor Barbara Corcoran; controversial ad exec Julie Roehm, who was fired from her position at Walmart for allegations of misconduct; and Reshma Saujani, who founded the Girls Who Code nonprofit. These women provide businesspeople with advice such as how to raise funds when starting a business, how important it is to follow your passions and gut instincts, and how to learn from failure. Exercise sheets are also provided in several chapters to allow readers to see how well they measure up to the interviewees’ recommendations. While few of the tips here are particularly novel, the touching stories of professional women will resonate with those currently struggling to achieve their goals in the business world and will encourage them to keep going.
