Amazing read, a must for all recent graduate.!

I loved each and every chapter of this book. Realistic and to the point. Sheds light on the issues I never pondered Upon.

Very inspirational!

this is a very inspirational book! I highly recommend it - mostly to women of all ages!

Life Changing!

I listened to this book during my 1 hour commute to work for a week and absolutely loved it!

Empowering, motivating and truly live changing. I am ready to look for a Lean In Circle to join now.

life changing!

I couldn't stop listening to this audiobook and highly recommend this book to everyone. I'm so grateful that Sheryl Sandberg wrote this book.

Inspiring must read for women

What did you like best about this story?

I like the idea of women should start putting up our hands in meetings, should start asking for raises when they think they are underpaid, should work with their partner to share the houseworks and family duties, etc.

Which scene was your favorite?

My favourite scene would be the ending part of the story when women from different organisations sharing how they lean in after reading the book.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

We CAN empower our own selves.

I hope men in power listen to this book

I am in the tech field and everything resonated for me. I consider myself to have a quite good understanding of issues that minorities face. the book added to my knowledge in terms of potential solutions but I think people who would benefit the most from this book are men in power who can help make a difference and be good allies

More Women In Power!!!

What did you like best about this story?

Sheryl Sandberg tells her story and offers her opinions and advice in a way that makes you want to say "thank you" after every chapter. She uses simple language, clear examples to illustrate her point, and her message is dead on: we need more women in power. I didn't agree with everything that she said, but it would be creepy if I did. Great book, fantastic food for thought and conversation. I only wish it had been Ms. Sandberg who read the book.

I wish every woman could listen to this.

I recommend this to anyone interested in creating an equitable world. Also, for those who want to become free from societal limitations placed on women.

I loved it!

I will lean in, even if I'm afraid. Thank you Sheryl and to all the guest writers on this edition. Lean In has made me feel not so scared of my graduation and job search.

Inspiring

I learned a lot about my own perceptions of gender and started paying attention to others actions. I plan on rereading and taking notes to share in my groups.
