Publisher's summary

From the best-selling author of Girl Code, Cara Alwill Leyba delivers Girl on Fire - the long-awaited follow up fans have been waiting for.

The self-publishing queen started this conversation four years ago with Girl Code, her ode to women and their power, a book so successful that it has been translated in seven languages and continues to make a major impact on the world. Girl On Fire builds on this concept and shows you how to blaze your own trail immediately. You don’t need permission from anyone to live fearlessly and start living your dream.

As an early voice in the female-driven movement, Cara continues to be a leader in the space, liberating women to trust their intuition and create their own opportunities. She empowers her listeners to stop waiting for their big break and, instead, to publish their own books, start their own podcasts, host their own panels and design their own clothing lines; whatever their desires are.

From the author:

Who would you be if you stopped following *their* rules? What would you create if you create if you had nothing holding you back?

Now that women entrepreneurs are banding together in sisterhood and realizing the importance of collaboration over competition, it's time to take things to the next level. It's time to rise up, together, and challenge the status quo. It's time to question the way things have been done in the past, to write our own rules, and do life and business OUR way.

The world needs us, as women, to utilize our voices now more than ever. We must step into our power and we must let nothing hold us back.

Business is changing rapidly, and there has never been a better time to choose yourself. Gone are the days of waiting to be chosen by an agent, a record label, a company, or a publisher.

Successful entrepreneurs don't wait for their "big break" - they create it. They don't wait to be featured in a magazine, or picked up by a publisher, or given a chance to speak on a stage. They promote themselves on platforms they create, they self-publish their own books, they launch their own podcasts, they create their own events and build their own stages.

Now is the time to show up for ourselves. We all have the ability to design a life and career beyond our wildest imaginations without permission, selection, or validation. Girl on Fire will show you how to do it.

This book is for every woman, who has had a vision that others might not understand. It's for every woman who is sick and tired of playing by the rules. It's for every woman who has known she was meant for more and has waited far too long for someone to give her the permission she thought she needed.

You Go Girrrrl!!

My fiance and I share this membership, but my name is Helen Edwards, author of Nothing Sexier Than Freedom. Your book really spoke to me. As a self-published author, myself, and entrepreneur, I felt this was a much needed reminder for myself. This book is a MUST READ. I love how easy and straightforward it was to get through. I'm going to share this book with all my friends. Thank you! - Helen

Empowering

This is my first time listening to the author. I was feeling STUCK in my new business venture. But after listening to her, I received that jolt I needed to keep moving forward. Cara is easy to understand on all levels and keeps the reader engaged. I am a new fan and will be following her other books.
