Jessica Herrin is an extraordinary woman with extraordinary accomplishments.
Her "Find Your Extraordinary" book, however, was anything but extraordinary.
Jessica came from humble beginnings and at age 24, she dropped out of Stanford Business School to cofound a wedding gift registry site, which later merged with WeddingChannel.com. Five years after Herrin left the company, it sold to The Knot in a deal worth $78 million.
She went on to cofound Stella & Dot, a multi-million $$$ direct-sales accessories company.
The "extraordinary" advice that you'll find in Jessica's book contains no amazing revelations.
I was hoping to learn specific details about the early challenges that she experienced while starting up her two companies. Knowing these facts (instead of just being provided with generalities) would have helped readers better understand how she was able to successfully catapult her personal and professional life to the next level.
I have always enjoyed her podcast interviews but this "tell-all" book simply did not tell me enough and, therefore, was disappointing.
Special thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for providing me with an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
