Finding the Exit

It’s Not Where You Start, It’s Where You Finish

What’s it really like for the average woman to start and sell a technology company?

Standing splendidly in the intersection of two genres – business memoir and gritty personal tell-all - Finding the Exit is a courageous tale of a woman who, against harrowing odds that began in childhood, successfully started and sold a medtech company to a Fortune 100 in less than five years.

Lea Ellermeier recounts her experiences with candor and razor-sharp intrepidness – from the unexpected death of her entrepreneur father, dropping out of high school, alcohol addiction as a teenager to a failed marriage, single parenthood, to sexism in the business world. Finding the Exit delivers empowering lessons for working women of all backgrounds, ages, and walks of life.
