This book is for ambitious, high-achieving women leaders, entrepreneurs,
aspiring entrepreneurs, and corporate leaders ready to move to the next
level. It is a manifesto and call to action for women to lift themselves
and each other up by refusing to accept limitations and instead
embracing an ethos of possibility.
There are big gorgeous goals that we all need to set. These are so
different from goals that we know we can accomplish because they feel
safe and tidy. These goals scare us; they keep us up at night--because
we fear they are beyond our grasp.
We all know women who are great at achieving big gorgeous goals. How do
they do it? What allows them to reach outward, upward, and think
expansively? The book explores the possibilities that open when we set
big gorgeous goals, and the common characteristics in the women who move
towards these.
Through stories and lessons, the book shows women leaders how thinking
beyond habitual limits allows us to surpass our current levels of
success. It includes Julie's personal story of becoming a founder of an
unexpectedly and wildly successful children's labels company that
started in one of the founders' basement and was eventually sold at an
eight-figure price. And it tells the story of what happened next, when
having hit a business high, she found herself at an inflection point,
where she needed to draw on different resources to find a new path to
success. Julie Ellis shares the lessons she has learned as an
entrepreneur and those of several other women entrepreneurs she
interviewed for the book. Their experiences impart to readers the
qualities that allow us to thrive as women in business, to healthily,
sustainably integrate the work of leadership into their larger lives as
mothers, caregivers, partners, dreamers and so much more...
