It's a great outlook on real-life females starting a business. It does get repetitive at some point in the book, and I wish there was a wider-market perspective - almost every chapter is about a beauty-related start-up.

Overall, this is a nice read especially because this book genre is deeply male-dominated. Female authors amplifying female entrepreneurs' voices are always welcome on my bookshelf.

Found it a little repetitive towards the end but some good advice and I love the principle behind it.

This book was so inspiring! From brands I love like Glow Recipe and Daye, it was so fascinating to read about their stories behind making the brands what they are today. Each snippet is 5-7 pages long, making the content digestible. Highly recommend this read if you’ve ever been interested in starting your own business and need some inspiration.

Excellent book, inspiring and well written. I very much enjoyed the easy layout.
I found that the book was dominated by those in the e-commerce space, although I found their ventures insightful, I would have liked there to have been other areas covered that perhaps I could relate to more. Maybe I will be in Doone's next book!

Enjoying every chapter of experience of women in business and starting out

[Jasmine · Rating 2 out of 5]

Repetitive and really only focused on beauty or skincare businesses, but ultimately the brief overviews are useful to see with some good information.

Good chapters with some interesting insights, but many of the lessons felt repetitive and redundant. Loved the women pov, tho!!!
