About this listen
This isn’t a fairy-tale book about achieving your wildest dreams. It’s a real-life, warts-in-all book about having the courage to chase them — even if they seem too big, too outlandish, or too elusive to reach.
Author Elise Russell had a (quote-unquote) “dream job” as a professional creative working in advertising. She was earning a good salary, winning awards, and making a name for herself within the industry. And it was killing her spirit.
In this personal, refreshing, and ultimately inspiring book, Elise shares her story of giving the middle finger to the nine-to-five and setting out on her own as a creative entrepreneur. Still very much in the trenches of building her creative boutique company Pony Friday, Elise offers a perspective on the creative entrepreneurial life that is not often heard: the on-the-ground account of someone still very much in the trenches.
Frank, funny, and disarmingly honest, Behave Boldly charts Elise’s journey as she builds a company, brand, and life that rejects labels, and aspires to being bold, unconventional — and utterly unique.

Story
When New York Times bestselling author Jon Acuff got curious about tapping into his full potential, he launched a research study with Dr. Mike Peasley. They asked more than three thousand people if they felt they were living up to their full potential. Fifty percent of people reported that 50 percent of their full potential is untapped. That means half of us are walking around with half-lives. No wonder Twitter is so grumpy.

Story
The first thing Sophia Amoruso sold online wasn’t fashion - it was a stolen book. She spent her teens hitchhiking, committing petty theft, and dumpster diving. By twenty-two, she had resigned herself to employment, but was still broke, directionless, and working a mediocre day job she’d taken for the health insurance. It was there that Sophia decided to start selling vintage clothes on eBay. Eight years later, she is the founder, CEO, and creative director of Nasty Gal, a $100 million plus online fashion retailer with more than 350 employees.

Every entrepreneur who is struggling needs this!
Elise very honestly tells the truth about her struggles and choices as she builds her agency. This is uniquely some honest perspective on starting and owning a business that isn't taking her from a quick rags to riches. It is a reminder how personal and hard it is to start from zero, and make choices between what you want to do, and taking on business you don't like. I've been there, and I really enjoyed her sincerity. definitely worth reading.
