- Reviewed in the United States on April 29, 2019I read this book in one go. Every single one is motivating and you are inspired to do more in your life. They are women just like you and me but what separates then and makes them stand out is their belief in themselves. Anyone who reads this book will take something unique that will resonate in your life. A great job by Sabine Matharu in gathering these jewels.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 2, 2019Author Claire Chapman says "Your success is already within. Discover it. Embody it. Create it. Expand it." Among 25 surprising stories by women, she reveals her personal struggle with depression. I felt her shift to take control and thrive. She sought others support on her journey, focusing on creating her own success. Bravo!

- Reviewed in the United States on August 29, 2019Loved this book! I love how this book is put together with quotes, bios and beautiful pictures of the ladies in the story. I feel the stories help to inspire others that they can have struggles and rise up to success and make a difference in their lives and the lives of others.

- Reviewed in the United States on April 17, 2019This was delivered in a graphics format where every page must be re-sized to become readable. The setting does not carry to the next page as in standard kindle format.. Amazon needs to require the publisher to offere an alternative or refund.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 11, 2019Stories of real-life struggles and obstacles to help inspire and empower others
The book is about women empowerment and is based on true life experiences of 25 amazing women. They want to help women achieve and exceed their dreams. Twenty-five women who have fought against challenges and personal obstacles are helping others to be their best. They share their struggles and missteps to inspire others in their journey to succeed. Many stories are of their journeys to self-love and happiness; of taking responsibility for their own health and wellbeing that in turn leads to the achievement of their dreams. I found this book uplifting, emotional, and motivating.
Includes a quote from each of the 25 authors, a brief empowering story, their picture and bio.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 2, 2019This book is beautifully written by wonderful people! After reading the first few pages, I was hooked. 10/10 would recommend to others!

5.0 out of 5 stars Half way through and feeling such a buzz!
I am one of the authors who contributed to this book but now it's out in the public domain I've had the pleasure of delving into the other stories.
'After The Avalanche' by Sharon Bowes caught my eye first. It reminded me of how many people face corporate lay offs and completely go into a downward spiral. It also reminded me that we are not defined by our past or job titles and Sharon showed how she was able to use all her skills and lessons learned to create a community for budding entrepreneurs to trust and build their skill base!
Just one of the examples of overcoming rejection and confusion and stepping out on faith. Thanks Sharon, Let's all keep showing up a little brighter!

5.0 out of 5 stars Inspiring and Empowering stories
I am not the only one who has faced challenges in my life. It is inspiring to know that others have gone through the challenging times and made it to the other side, achieving success beyond the imagination! The businesses created as a result are empowering and provide great insight into what possibilities are available. What a great journey to read and learn from!

5.0 out of 5 stars Inspiring stories
I loved reading all the stories in the book. Such a variety of experience and each story gave me something to think about. Hopefully, it will inspire other people to take the first step in seeking a more empowered life for themselves. I enjoyed reading Vicky's story as having family members of my own in the armed forces, I found it really positive and easily relatable.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Perfect Bedside Book!!
What an incredible compilation of stories. There is something for everyone in this book - extremely relatable and realistic. I particularly like the "Success Boss" chapter, as it offers a vulnerable and inspiring view on overcoming depression. This is the perfect bedside book... to end your day with positivity.

5.0 out of 5 stars A good read with 25 inspiring stories.
Twenty-five stories from women in different parts of the world. All different and yet with the common threat of persistence in the search for answers and solutions to real-life challenges. A pleasure to read.
