Kathleen's voice

It had pretty good and helpful content, but what made me hate half of the book was Kathleen's voice. I dreaded every part she narrated. Her annoying nasal voice and the way she spoke when reading, it was like she was reading to a toddler. Emily's voice was a treat; it was so pleasant. If it would've been only Emily narrating the book, it would've been perfect and I would've finished it way sooner. So I don't know if I'd recommend this audio book, but a physical version of the book I would.
I can't see myself listening to the podcast with Kathleen there.

Much needed kick in the butt

I love their podcast and have binge listened to this more than once when I need a good kick in the ass to get motivated!!!
I also bought the kindle edition! Keep it up ladies!

Lots of great insight & positivity👍🏽Thanks

Loved the New Moon/Phases of the Moon planning idea. So many great thoughts & actions to partake in!

Pushed me further into my life

This book had a lot of great information. I was taking notes the entire time. I do not have a creative type business but i find the information to be relevant to running a business in general as well as working a day job. I recommend this book to everyone i talk to.

Life-changing

So much smart, heart-centered wisdom and tough love from Emily and Kathleen. I ordered the print copy as well to hold and mark up and work through again and again.

Outstanding Biz Value!

I loved everything about this book...real talk, real life experiences, great value on every level. There was never a boring moment...robust sharing of relatable information & a few laugh-out-loud moments, as well. I’ll delve into everything else Emily & Kathleen have to offer. They’re my new biz besties! Passing this along to my daughter. Thanks Audible...I purchased the book during the 2 for 1 promo.

Learned a lot

I found it very informative. If you are a small business owner, from writing your business plan to having many employees, I think there’s something to b learned.
At first, and this is just me, I found their voices offputting but that eventually went away

Amazing

To be honest I wasn’t sure about this book at first. However, I got it and within the first ten minutes of this book I was hooked. The stories, experiences, tips, and tricks the authors presents are easy to follow, understand, even implement. I’m going to listen to it again, and do some of the exercises it demonstrates! Highly recommended for anyone wanting become a boss!

There's some real good tips

I thought I won't enjoy it, but I sort of did because of some interesting reminders.

But there's sections I couldn't relate to and found them femenine, like imagining having dinner with your super star. Well for positive thinking maybe it'll help but not the way it's described in the book.

Its worth reading, but not top of the list. I was glad that it's only about 5 hrs.

Very straightforward!

I really enjoyed the straightforward delivery and cut to the chase. A good shake and slap on the face of what I needed to hear to get my gear going.
