Reading Recommendation

I am a ferocious reader, and one book

I came across just before Christmas is

'In The Company of Women' by Grace Bonney.

What really attracted me to this coffee-table

tome, is that is was compiled and written by

someone who started out as a blogger.

(it's even got a raving endorsement from 

Martha Stewart!)

Grace Bonney has compiled a book of her favourite

creative icons, artists, heroes.........

It is full of empowering business advice and inspiration

from a diverse group of uplifting and talented women

of all races, ages, diversity etc.

It's the kind of book that gives me the urge to rip out every page,

post them around my office so that I can be surrounded by these

incredible women (hoping that some of their sage advice will

penetrate by pure osmosis ;-)

I go through the book each day aiming to read at least 3-4 profiles

whilst making notes of the most salient points which I then keep

in my Evernote for when I need a spot of inspiration for the days

when I am having a  real funk (which have been quite plentiful this

Jan and Feb).

(Does anyone else make notes when they are reading non-fiction?)

If you want further inspiration this interview with the

author and Marie Forleo should do it.

She talks more about how she achieved her goals 

whilst striving for the work/life balance.

Enjoy and don't forget to leave me your thoughts below.
