Girl Code: Unlocking the Secrets to Success, Sanity, and Happiness for the Female Entrepreneur

The reviews disagree with me, so I assume this book and I are just a poor match.
If I hear the word "journey" again today, I may forget all my inner peace and ask the universe to wack somebody on the head. The author's story of finding the perfect salon to get her mink lash extensions gave me pause. It was her rapturous recounting of the time she took a town car to buy a Chanel purse that finished me off. I'm a mother of grown children and now a new grandmother. This whole 'purse that cost twice as much as my first car' phenomenon is beyond ridiculous. But she's young..she'll learn.

So, if you are an ambitious 20/30 something and are new to positive thinking and sending out good energy to get good energy back; if you like the idea of mink lash extensions (seriously?) you may very well enjoy this book. If, on the other hand, you are a more mature person who has lived through the fads and fancies of superficiality, look elsewhere. It's hard to get a reinvigorating shot of positivity when you are hearing from the wife of an NBA star or a reality TV personality about how they run their businesses and get everything done. Hmm ..ready cash maybe?

In summary, road weary pragmatists beware! The info is standard positive cheerleader stuff. A great message, but the messenger may not resonate for everyone.

No. The Narrator was good but the book was not for me at all.

No. I will just do more research next time.

None.

Major disappointment. Annoyance.

This book appears to be a business book at first look, but it is not at all. I tried to return it but it would not allow me. I kept listening hoping it would improve but it never did. This is book is not for a woman who (like me) is already confident, already strong, already outgrown high school behaviors towards other women, has kids, already believes in positivity brings in only good things in your life; if you fit any of those, do not buy this book. This book would be very helpful if you are unsure of yourself, doubtful, awash in negativity, cannot maintain good working relationships, have a woe is me attitude, can't be happy for others. I run a painting company. There was nothing about dealing with men in business in this book. Next time I will research more than the first couple reviews before buying a book.

Amazing, intriguing, and inspiring. Great book to empower women and make them more confident. I loved it!!

Loved it so inspirational definitely gonna read again and again the narrator has a very welcoming and inviting voice I listened to it all day and didn't want it to end, sad that I finished it so quick I will definitely recommend giving it a read and I will also be looking into more books from this author. Great job!!!!

I wasn't sure if this book was for me as I am 48, and married with step-children. With that said, I've always connected with the energy of younger, go-getter women and Cara is definitely one of those women. She is wise beyond her years, and has a fun and magical way of describing the challenges and solutions that most of us women face today. I am also a life coach and empowering women is my passion so I connected deeply with her message. If you are looking for a refreshing voice on how to break through self-limiting beliefs and increase your confidence in believing you deserve to have, do and be what you want, read this book! Even if you are in your 40's, 50's or 60's you'll resonate with her message and receive valuable nuggets that you can apply immediately to your life. I'm going to read it again!!

loved it. very inspiring. and good reminder points for all women starting their own business!

If you're doubting yourself and your business with comparison and envy read this book and gift it to Every Woman entrepreneur you know

I loved this book!! Every woman should read it. Cara gives great advice for life, business and happiness.

Narration was great from the author. Ladies, she has an important message for is and I wish we would all read it.
