Synopsis

A call for women everywhere to forget perfectionism and start winging it.
 
Emma Isaacs forgot to draw up her life plan. She doesn’t have a list of five-year goals, and she doesn’t believe in work-life balance. Yet somehow she’s managed to found a multimillion-dollar global organization, become a highly sought-after speaker and media commentator, and be recognized as a prominent voice in women’s leadership—all while raising six young children.

So how does she do it all? She dives in headfirst and wings it.

Women are notorious over-preparers and underestimators when it comes to their own readiness to try something new. But as Emma teaches, what most often holds us back are our own fears, excuses, and doubts. With her revolutionary manifesto, Winging It, Emma shares a rallying cry for all women to “do the things that scare you, build your wealth, make an impact, fail lots, and get up and try again.”

Through hilarious stories, targeted prompts, and timeless advice, Emma will inspire you to get clear on what really matters and go after your dreams, one messy step at a time. Get ready to stop hiding behind the safe option or the perfect plan—and start winging it.

ehhh no. I was mislead by thinking this would dive into perfectionism and planning vs diving into something and taking action. this was a pretty surface level read, her advice is mostly generic (which is the bane of my existence). I did appreciate the financial chapter though! I think this would be......more

Goodreads review by Hannah on January 21, 2021

This book was full of inspiring stories and realistic tips for winging it in life and business. I love reading about successful women and how they’ve done it.
