So insightful!

Loved this book! I was sad when it ended. I am a mom and an executive and felt 100% related.

Loved it!

Empowering, inspiring and well-written. All you’d want in a women’s self-help, Biz-focused book.

Fabulous stories, meaningful tips, & entertaining too!

I love this book! The stories by so many successful women will give you a glimpse into the struggles they face, no doubt you will see yourself in their situations Learning how these accomplished women navigated office politics, their inner critic, and the business environment is inspiring and motivating.

I listened to the audio version and Carrie narrated the book herself. This is always my preference because you can hear the authors passion and the advice connects more strongly.

Pick up a copy of Work IT and get ready to learn from fabulous women who have created amazing careers!
