Acerca de esta escucha
Discover life and business tips from Cheekys' founder, who survived a devastating childhood and turned her tiny Idaho shop into a multi-million dollar brand, in this "manifesto on how to do everything from overcome haters to persevere in business" (Lee Woodruff, number one best-selling author).
New Plymouth, Idaho. Population 1536. It doesn't look like much from Rural Route 30, but it was here, in this quiet town, that a mother of four faced down her hard past, poverty, self-doubt, and a reluctant customer base. And she created something unexpected: a multi-million dollar FRBR (For Rural, By Rural) business empire.
Her name is Jessi Roberts, and the business is Cheekys, which started with six purses and a tanning bed. Now in her book, Jessi reveals how she grew one small store hurdle-by-hurdle into a national clothing and accessories brand with a one-and-a-half-million-strong community. Best of all, she did it by standing tall for her values: Always be kind, lift up the next gal, and treat employees and customers like family.
More than a business book, Backroads Boss Lady is about embracing your passion even when others don't see value in it - or you - and about putting food on the table and believing in yourself. Brimming with authenticity, it gives the warts-and-all, love-it-despite-it skinny on rural life, community, and contentment without compromise.

Hey you guys, it’s Leslie. I’m excited to share my story with you. Now, I’m gonna be honest: Some of the details might be vague because a b*tch is fifty-five and she’s smoked a ton of weed. But while bits might be a touch hazy, I can promise you the underlying truth is REAL.

Historia
The first thing Sophia Amoruso sold online wasn’t fashion - it was a stolen book. She spent her teens hitchhiking, committing petty theft, and dumpster diving. By twenty-two, she had resigned herself to employment, but was still broke, directionless, and working a mediocre day job she’d taken for the health insurance. It was there that Sophia decided to start selling vintage clothes on eBay. Eight years later, she is the founder, CEO, and creative director of Nasty Gal, a $100 million plus online fashion retailer with more than 350 employees.

A woman who was able to achieve her dreams by reveling in her pain and awkwardness, showing the world who she really is, and inspiring others through the power of laughter.

Historia
Meet a genuine American folk hero cut from the homespun cloth of America's heartland: Sam Walton, who parlayed a single dime store in a hardscrabble cotton town into Wal-Mart, the largest retailer in the world. The undisputed merchant king of the late 20th century, Sam never lost the common touch. Here, finally, inimitable words. Genuinely modest, but always sure of his ambitions and achievements. Sam shares his thinking in a candid, straight-from-the-shoulder style. In a story rich with anecdotes and the "rules of the road" of both Main Street and Wall Street, Sam Walton chronicles the inspiration, heart, and optimism that propelled him to lasso the American Dream.

Historia
Heloise considers it a blessing to be a person who seldom attracts attention. In her suburb, she's just a mom, the young widow with the forgettable job, who somehow never misses a soccer game. In the state capital, she's the redheaded lobbyist with a good cause and a mediocre track record. But in discreet hotel rooms throughout the area, she's the woman of your dreams - if you can afford the hourly fee. For more than a decade, Heloise believed she was safe, managing to keep up this rigidly compartmentalized life. But her secret life is under siege. One county over, another so-called suburban madam has been found dead in her car, an apparent suicide.

Throw Out Fifty Things is truly an eye-opener. According to Blanke, our lives are so filled with junk from the past—from dried up tubes of crazy glue to old grudges—that's it's a wonder we can get up in the morning, never mind go to work, care for our children and parents, and just put one foot in front of the other. Blanke wants to start a movement of people across America throwing out 50 things (magazines count as one!) that will help liberate us from the stuff—both physical and mental—that clutters our lives.

With Normal Gets You Nowhere, Kelly Cutrone invites us to get our freak on. History is full of successful, world-changing people who did not fit in. Think Nelson Mandela, Joan of Arc, Eleanor Roosevelt, Amelia Earhart, John Lennon, and Rosa Parks. Instead of changing themselves to accommodate the status quo or what others thought they should be, these people hung a light on their differences - and changed humanity in the process. “I know you don’t feel normal, so why are you trying to act it and prove to everyone you are?” Cutrone says.

Unemployed at 29, Tess Monaghan is willing to take any freelance job to pay the rent—including a bit of unorthodox snooping for her rowing buddy, Darryl "Rock" Paxton. In a city where someone is murdered almost every day, attorney Michael Abramowitz's death should be just another statistic. But the slain lawyer's notoriety—and his noontime trysts with Rock's fiancée—make the case front page news...and point to Rock as the likely murderer. But trying to prove her friend's innocence could prove costly to Tess.

While working together at a Los Angeles boutique, Pamela Skaist-Levy and Gela Nash-Taylor became fast and furious friends over the impossibility of finding the perfect T-shirt. Following their vision of comfortable, fitted T-shirts, they set up shop in Gela’s one-bedroom Hollywood apartment with $200 and one rule: Whatever they did, they both had to be obsessed by it. Pam and Gela eventually sold their company to Liz Claiborne for $50 million, but not before they created a whole new genre of casual clothing that came to define California cool.

True and real author audio is *love*
I’ve read the book many years ago. Last Year decided to get the audio to play it for my employees while we worked because i felt the book related such an important value that i certainly want to convey within my own business. I have so much in common with Jessi and hearing *her* tell the story was all that much more connective. Thanks. It’s a great read for small business people just starting off with big dreams as well as for seasoned business owners who are still small pushing through in spite of the challenges for inspiration if nothing more.

From the beginning
I’m an Idaho girl and I have loved Cheeky’s from the beginning and I loved this whole book, from the beginning. That Farm Girl leather bracelet that I bought from the original store has been an all time favorite. What an amazing journey you have been on and thank you for sharing it with the world. I can’t wait for the new store to open.

So much more than another business book!
I don't write many reviews, but felt I need to encourage all the women to listen to Jessi Robert's story! No excuses for me anymore. She is the definition of perseverance. I don't think I could be as open and honest as she was. You will laugh with her and cry with her. Love this book!

So Much More Than Expected!
I really thought this was going to be another one of those “I made $1,000,000 and you can, too!” books. Wow, did I underestimate Jessi Roberts!
Yes, this is a book about a multi-million dollar business, but it’s so much more. I love that Jessi wrote about everything, and I mean everything that made her who she is.
I would recommend this book (print and audio) for any woman who needs to feel empowered. To any woman who needs to know you’re not alone, in whatever it is you may be going through, listen to Jessi tell you her story.

Jessi Keeps it Real
Loved this audio book! Jessi's story is one of perseverance. She has overcome so many obstacles in her personal life and business. If you are looking for something that is heartfelt and inspiring you should definitely give it a read (or listen).
