Book excerpt: A bold and unabashed guide to finding your voice, harnessing your true desires, and leading the life you really want. Women are tired of worrying that they are being "too loud" if they speak up and say what they believe, want, or need, and are ready to feel their power and make themselves heard. A certified life coach and author of the bestseller How to Stop Feeling Like Shit, Andrea Owen knows that this is absolutely attainable if women can channel their righteous anger and desire. But she also knows that they'll need to disrupt a status quo in which women have been conditioned and socialized to remain on the sidelines and to put others before themselves. With all of the expertise of a veteran feminist and hell-raiser, and the relatability of a dear friend, Make Some Noise will push women to step outside of rigid societal expectations and show them how to take back control of their lives, and make them all their own. In Make Some Noise, Owen deconstructs common behavior patterns that sabotage our power as women, and instead suggests new behaviors for creating a life that truly serves our desires and needs. From unlearning the notion that women should stay quiet and take up little space to trusting your inner wisdom, Make Some Noise is a raw and honest guidebook, and, ultimately, a call to arms.

Download or read book It s Messy written by Amanda de Cadenet and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2017-09-19 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “10 New Books We’re Dying to Read in September” --The Zoe Report In this deeply personal collection of essays, creator of the The Conversation Amanda de Cadenet shares the hard-won advice and practical insights she’s gained through her experiences as businesswoman, friend, wife, and mother. Amanda is on a mission to facilitate conversations that allow all women to be seen, heard, and understood. Through her multimedia platform The Conversation, she interviews some of today’s most bad ass women—from Hillary Clinton to Lady Gaga—in no-holds-barred conversations that get to the heart of what means to be female. Now, in It’s Messy, Amanda offers readers an extension of that conversation, inviting them into her life and sharing her own story. From childhood fame to a high-profile marriage (and divorce) to teen motherhood to the sexism that threatened to end her career before it started, Amanda shares the good, the bad, and the messy of her life, synthesizing lessons she’s learned along the way. Through it all, she offers an original perspective as a feminist on the front lines of celebrity culture. Edgy, irreverent, poignant and provocative, It’s Messy addresses the issues, concerns, and experiences relevant to women today.

Download or read book The MBA Guide To Being a Badass Woman written by Stella Manning and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-08-31 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Warning: This book is not for the politically correct or the faint of heart. This book is for the woman who truly wants to be a badass. In this controversial, subversive guide, the author discards traditional advice for women on career, relationships, money, and family and instead dispenses her own personal brand of advice that examines taboo topics such as sleeping your way to the top, gold digging, and becoming a mom when you are young. The book offers an alternative to the "equality" women are being offered now, that doesn't take into account their biological timetable, but instead treats them the same as men. In the vein of books on how to be an alpha female, it merges this concept with femininity to transcend that advice. This is because, contrary to the popular stereotype of the alpha female as a female with alpha male traits, a true alpha female is the perfect counterpart to the alpha male: she is all girl. This book may offend some, because the book strikes at the heart of issues that affect and are important to women, rather than neatly tucking the main aspects of womanhood: motherhood, relationships, and the very real effect these areas of life can have on a woman's finances. Other guides for women attempt to advise women as though they were a guy, scarcely mentioning that fact that most either have children, or want them, and desire to spend time with them. For the seriously ambitious woman who doesn't want to sacrifice her dreams and family for success, this guide will allow you to look at every tool at your disposal so you can make decisions outside of the box that society wants you placed in.

Sure, her husband's top secret weapons projects were a little... weird, but at least her career as a gymnastics instructor didn't involve any covert government contracts. Cindy's life was peaceful. That is until she snuck into her husband Jonas' lab after hours. What began as an innocent curiosity catapults her life into an exciting thrill ride, as Cindy accidentally merges with Jonas' prototype nanosuit. Like a teenager stealing her parents' car for the night, Cindy becomes an armored super heroine known as The Silver Ninja or so she thought... She soon discovers that the suit is not at all what it appears to be. As it secretly blurs the line between good and evil, Cindy unknowingly becomes more aggressive, violent and apathetic to the world around her.

Cindy will have to suit up and fight through an avalanche of futuristic weaponry to stop more innocent lives from being lost. But can she overcome her personal demons before becoming the villain? Will Cindy be able to save herself in time to save her family?
