Secrets of Six-Figure Women

Surprising Strategies to up Your Earnings and Change Your Life

By: Barbara Stanny

Narrated by: Vanessa Daniels

Quietly and steadily, the number of women making six figures or more is increasing and continues to rise at a rate faster than for men. From entrepreneurs to corporate executives, from white-collar professionals to freelancers and part-timers, women are forging careers with considerable financial success.

In Secrets of Six-Figure Women, Barbara Stanny, journalist, motivational speaker, and financial educator, identifies the seven key strategies of female high earners: Profit Motive, Audacity, Resilience, Encouragement, Self-Awareness, Non-Attachment, and Financial Know-How.

Based on extensive research and hundreds of interviews, including more than 150 women whose annual earnings range from $100,000 to $7 million, Stanny turns each of the six-figure traits into a specific strategy for upping earnings. By rigorously fine-tuning them, listeners can, step-by-step, climb the income ladder.

Critic reviews

"A concise, honest book...Stanny offers advice with the reader's personal well-being in mind." ( Publishers Weekly)

Professional, Heartfelt Codes for Business & Life

Rich with real-world anecdotes and experiences, the author generously gives women methods to make progress towards and beyond six figures, and a virtual 'sounding board' for reasoned decision-making via success stories and occasional cautionary tales.

Men can profit from a listen as well. The portions that deal with predominantly women's issues are not belabored, and will give thoughtful men some insights and, hopefully, enlightenment.

Narration is near perfect.

A genuinely recommended listen.

A must read for any woman who desires more

Are you underpaid, out performing your peers, wanting to start your own business? If so, this book will teach you the most tried and true principles about changing the thought patterns that hold you back. Finding this book was kismet as I’m leaving what most women would see as a dream situation to go out on my own. This book has confirmed that I’m not crazy and I have everything I need to succeed! I’m recommending this book to every woman I know who isn’t being recognized or rewarded the way she should be!

Amazing book

Seeing examples is like a mirror that tells you- girl, you too can be wealthy. Very inspiring book for any woman serious about the bag

For women who are growing in their careers or looking to make a move.

I started listening to this while interviewing for jobs and started noticing ways in which I was holding myself back. I asked for more and accepted an offer that is six figures, finally bringing me into that income bracket. The stories in this book helped me understand the ways in which I could be more vocal about what I want and honestly, it helped me quit my existing job without having too much care as I typically would. I feel more mature as a career woman and a bit more equipped to speak to what I’m worth.

A girl's best friend that she'll come back to.
