I binged through this book in one-sitting. I loved how Kelley broke down concepts into super simple easy to understand terms. Having been a NASCAR & Dale Jr. fan for years, I loved how she used examples within NASCAR to explain all of these concepts, but equally made them relatable to anything someone is pursuing.

Interesting read from the daughter of a racing legend as well as a woman in a male field. Showing that women can do anything they put their minds to.

What’s not to love? Well written and paced, and lots of interesting insights. Very solid book. Highly recommend.

Kelley Earnhardt Miller has written a great book in Drive. I was pleasantly surprised at how good it was. I did not expect for her to be so candid about her life and how she overcame. I am giving it five plus stars.

The story starts with NASCAR starting pole positions. Miller shows that she didnt have that advantage. But Rule no 1, you dont have to start at the pole posiiton to win.

The book has lessons about decision making, prioritising things. It shows Miller's cut the crap and get to action attitude.

Management by Strengths.

There are references to books and advices that have let Miller to move on or take bold directions.

"Keep the team going strong when they are discouraged or disappointed"

"Find your voice and use it".

If you are a fan of NASCAR, you are familiar with the Earnhardt name. Drive is written by Kelley Earnhardt Miller. She provides some insight to the Earnhardt family. The book gives tools for women in business which can be beneficial to all readers.

I am huge Earnhardt family fan and a life-long NASCAR fan, so I jumped on the opportunity to read this book when it came out.

I appreciated the insights on the famous family from a point of view I hadn't heard before. Some of that came across as a little bitter and there was lots of selfish finger pointing. I don't want to unfairly judge someone's life story, however I do feel I can judge the writing style. The choice of words and stories felt very one-sided and a little unfair, especially for someone who said they had been through therapy to cope.

As a woman in business, I hoped I could glean some new tips to take back to my life as a VP. I appreciate and agree with the 9 lessons presented in the book, however this book read very much to me as a mom's advice on business rather than a straight set of tools anyone can apply. As a woman in business, I want to be supportive of women in business but this book focused too much on emotional factors and work-life balance for my taste. The writing style was very conversational which didn't quite land with me and my career needs. I could see this book being most impactful to a younger person trying to navigate the waters of business for the first time. That said, getting in the door is half the battle some times and going into the family business and having success is quite different than making your way on your own.
