Description
When entrepreneur Sharmin Ali shares her wide-eyed dreams of a teenager, brimming with curiosity and ambition, to the relentless pursuit two decades later of a successful businesswoman who has traveled to over seventy countries, meeting characters and challenges along the way, the reader has to keep up.
Bitch, Stop! Please . . . is her story. Each obstacle became a stepping stone, each victory a reminder that the self-reliant route is not a straight line but a winding road filled with unexpected turns. From the bustling streets of New York to the serene landscapes of Chile, from the vibrant cultures of Africa to the historic charm of Europe, she immersed herself in the richness of different worlds, each destination a chapter filled with adventures that broadened her horizons and shaped an entrepreneurial spirit through human connection with consistent examples of courage and innovation.
From a small village in India where she learned about sustainable farming to a tech hub in Silicon Valley where she witnessed groundbreaking innovations, every encounter added a new dimension to her understanding of business and people.
This book is not just a memoir of her travels but a guide for aspiring entrepreneurs where she shares lessons and strategies to develop a mindset that nurtures an unstoppable spirit that can build a company and bring about meaningful change.
