For young adults

This book was more for young adults and people just starting out in their careers.

Fabulous

She is pretty much fabulous! Enjoyed this book thoroughly, lots of good dialog and informative.

Motivational & Honest

I really enjoyed this book. The author's experiences were very relatable while delivering perfect examples of why one should always be on point, if they want success. I love her honesty. It was an enlightening read, and very entertaining. The narrator sounded different most times, which was a distraction but overall I got the message. Thumbs up!

Loved it!

This book is perfect for anyone looking to kick-start or re-charge their careers. Well written and well read.

Brilliant!

Can’t wait to share, I’ve followed you since the Twitter beginning! You even responded once!

Great book!

Very inspiring and well worded book. I would highly recommend this audio book for anyone

Some basic principles

I guess for an entry level fresh out of college individual, this will bring up good points but these are basic business principles.

Pretty good

What turned me off the most about the book was that she never seemed to do anything wrong. She always got it right, was perfect on her first attempt of anything and I find that hard to believe and totally unrelatable. Honestly it made the first portion a bit of a drag to get through. It did however get better toward the middle of the book when she did open up about issues she had experienced. Over all it's an ok read.

Inspired

This was the right book at the right time for me. It really made me take a look at the path I was on...

enjoyable and informative

I really enjoyed this book. It was quite entertaining and quite informative. I love the way Aliza shared her personal experiences to make the book more relevant and poignant.
