Thank you for your thorough and well-written critique, it was very helpful! :)

Thanks for a great review. I can relate to the self-doubt others have expressed. This book does sound empowering and full of practical tips, such as the one about the elevator pitch. I take it the author is reclaiming the word bitch. Yet despite much progress, misogyny and glass ceilings haven't really gone anywhere. Does she address such issues at all?

No she doesn’t, which is somewhat a pity. However I can somewhat understand as her main focus is giving the reader a comprehensive overview of setting up one’s own business and to have a stable psychological state to handle the rigours of being self-employed. Thanks for your kind comments!

I would never think of salary negotiation. Honestly, I feel so grateful that someone would hire me to do anything at all that to ask more than being allowed to work and buy my own food seems so greedy. It's a great review, but I sure don't relate.

I totally understand! It’s not easy to broach this topic at all, since people might think one greedy. I suppose that’s why Lapin mentions that it is important to learn how to value our own worth. It’s definitely not an easy hurdle. However, thank you for taking the time to read and leave kind comments on my review! 😄
