Whether you’re on a plane, the beach, or lounging in your hammock this summer, it’s a good time to enjoy some inspiring books written by and for ambitious entrepreneurs. Here’s my list of a few recommended reads for you to dig into during your downtime. They aren’t new, but they are some of the BEST and I try to re-read them every year!
1. Losing My Virginity: How I’ve Survived, Had Fun, and Made a Fortune Doing Business My Way by Sir Richard Branson
This one’s my favorite since you know I just returned from meeting with this amazing entrepreneur in a small group on his private island! His fun and feisty autobiography will give you a glimpse inside the head of one of the true mavericks of the business world. Branson’s stories will shock you, while reminding you to take risks in your life and your business, and never forget to enjoy the ride. (Click here to read more…)
I was able to pre-record a special call for the final week of the 4th Annual Inspiring Women Summit. It’s called, “Woman of Worth: Business Brilliance for Making a Living Doing What You Love“ and it will air tomorrow, May 23 at 8pm ET.
It makes complete sense that entrepreneurship is so attractive to women right now. The traditional work model has never been a good fit for women, especially for those raising families (or waiting for our family to arrive ;)), so for us, being able to custom-design a business that fits the lifestyle we want is the ultimate dream.
