Resumen del Editor

“An inspiring blueprint to overcome challenges—and thrive” (Arianna Huffington, Founder and CEO of Thrive Global), on how to turn other’s and your own doubt into rocket fuel to achieve your dreams, from entrepreneur, CEO, and healthcare investor Surbhi Sarna.

The very qualities that make you an outlier are, in fact, your strengths. Or so Surbhi Sarna discovered after a teenage cancer scare inspired her to reimagine healthcare, founding a medical start-up to detect early ovarian cancer. In Without a Doubt, she shares how she proved the doubters wrong. As a young brown woman without a medical degree or Ivy-league or Silicon Valley contacts—and who had felt different throughout her life—she was often overlooked and underrated.

Undeterred, Sarna used the naysayers as ammunition to help her surpass expectations—and achieve her dreams. Without a Doubt is her powerful story of becoming a leader without an MBA, networking without a network, and raising funds when she didn't know a single venture capitalist, teaching you how to do the same. Sarna led an all-star team to develop a life-saving medical device, sold her business for $275 million, and became a partner at Y Combinator, one of the most successful venture firms in the world. Using her own experience, she shows you how to face setbacks, not let impossible standards get in the way, lead empathetically, empower others to think differently, and how to convince the right people to help you accomplish your goals.

Without a Doubt reveals that your power lies in recognizing the qualities that make you different and leveraging them to pursue your dreams.

A story of grit

This book speaks to me on so many levels. I am a woman of color in the early stages of building my company. The profound amount of grit and courage demonstrated in this book is inspiring and makes one feel less isolated. Surbhi has had such an impressive journey at such a young age which is nothing short of inspiring and impressive. Wow wow wow!

Outstanding

I am serial entrepreneur & teach New Venture Finance at UC Berkeley. Having read dozens & dozens of books by entrepreneurs this is hands down one of the very best. Honest about the journey and inspiring about the persistence needed.

Inspiring story from an inspiring founder

Surbhi’s candid vulnerability is what makes this story great. Any founder will be able to connect with the low times of entrepreneurship and be inspired by what it will take to make it. This is especially interesting for those at the cross section of hardware, software and medical devices.

Inspiring entrepreneurial journey brought to life

An inspiring and candid account of Surbhi's entrepreneurial journey that starts at high-school and results in her building a medical device company worth hundreds of millions of dollars against all the odds. The audiobook, superbly narrated by Surbhi, really brings her story to life. A call to action and must-read for all the underrated entrepreneurs out there!

Fun and interesting read

Loved how it was ready by the author. It was easy to listen to and enjoyed being brought on the journey about her life adventures.

The story is inspiring but I was expecting more guidance

The story is very inspiring but the book is more of an autobiography than a guidance book for startup founders to learn and evolve. It is more about the story of the author and her challenges which is very inspiring.
