I would recommend this book to everyone not just considering it to be about handling loss and to achieve success. I read the book as a memoir considering the way it has been written.

Despite facing challenges of a new job of today’s most used social media and being a woman of color with the sudden loss of a close family, the author has been forced to reconsider her position and the decisions she had to make with the right people.

This book has so much to offer and the more I read the book, the more I got more inspired to be unapologetically to be myself and be motivated to become who I want to be.

If you need to rediscover satisfaction in both work and life, happiness and fulfillment this book will be your best guide and friend.

Thank you, Greenleaf Book Group/ Fast Company Press, for the advance reading copy.
