I Didn’t Know I Could Ask for More

How Women Can Break the Silence, Reclaim Their Power, and Get Paid What They Deserve

“I thought I had to take what was given to me. I didn’t know I could ask for more.”

This is the quiet battle millions of women face. Raised to be polite, to be grateful, to not make a fuss — they shrink themselves to fit into roles that never truly fit.

This book is for the woman who’s been silently settling.

In I Didn’t Know I Could Ask for More, Lena Hartley helps you:

✅ Recognize the silent patterns that keep you underpaid and overlooked
✅ Break free from guilt when advocating for yourself
✅ Learn how to ask — without apologizing
✅ Shift your money mindset and self-worth identity
✅ Stop shrinking and start negotiating — in your work and your life

With emotionally resonant storytelling and empowering insight, this book is a soft revolution — and an unapologetic reclamation.

If you’ve ever whispered “thank you” when you meant “I deserve more” — this book is for you.
