I took a long time to actually listen to this book. But when I finally did, it was the right time. I'm not in the corporate world, im an entrepreneur and this book still hit home for me. I'm sending this book to my 3 Daughters and nieces who are in the corporate arena. My favorite part was the Mamaisms cause it brought back so many wonderful memories of my Mama, and let me know I'm stronger than I've given my self credit for. Thank you for this book, I will be reviewing again and again.

Tons of helpful tips and strategies. I really liked the flow from getting a job to having a seat at the table. The cultural codes and “mamaisms” broke things up and made it plain. Thanks.
