Yes, You Can Do This!

How Women Start Up, Scale Up, and Build the Life They Want

By: Claudia Reuter

Narrated by: Coleen Marlo

Claudia Reuter left a promising corporate career to raise her two young children but realized, when reentering the workforce, that the gap in her resume looked like a gap in ambition - not a purposeful plan. Instead of leaning into a corporate career and fighting the structures and systems designed by and for men decades ago, or leaning out and giving up income, Claudia took a different path. That decision ultimately led to success in the corporate world and at home.

In Yes, You Can Do This! Claudia shares her own reasons for starting a business and makes a call to action for women to consider entrepreneurship so that they can create businesses with the rules they want and change the playing field for others, making a significant impact in the world. More than a how-to guide on building a business, Claudia provides clear examples and practical resources to help others create the life they want through entrepreneurship. In Yes, You Can Do This! you'll learn: how to develop and share your vision; how to deal with stereotypes and unconscious bias; how to leverage perceived weaknesses and turn them into strengths; how to balance life at high speeds and avoid burnout; and how to cultivate the confidence to move from idea to creating a company with the culture and rules you want.

Overall, very good book and concepts

I enjoyed the book. As an entrepreneur I am always looking for tips to improve, and this book delivered.

The narrator, however, was a bit distracting. She had an unusual pronunciation of some words (ex. mAHnaging, family, bAHlance) that I found myself listening to the pronunciation more than the concepts in the book.

I know its nit-picky, the book really is good.
