How can you have a rich and fulfilling life? The choices you make, not your income or financial assets, are the most powerful determining factor for your quality of life. Women have never had so many options. Yet we often experience a kind of paralysis, an unconscious willingness to follow societal dictates rather than become the CEOs of our own lives. When we mindlessly follow the dots, we smother our innate gifts and miss opportunities to fulfill our true potential.

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.

Story
"Years ago, I wrote about a retail store in the Palo Alto environs—a good one, which had a box of two-cent candies at the checkout. I subsequently remember that 'little' parting gesture of the two-cent candy as a symbol of all that is Excellent at that store. Dozens of people who have attended seminars of mine have come up to remind me, sometimes 15 or 20 years later, of “the two-cent candy story,” and to tell me how it had a sizable impact on how they did business."

No matter how motivated and energetic you are - even if you're the greatest salesperson on the planet! - as a network marketer with limited time, there's only so much money you can make without great people to help you sell your products. Recruiting is the life force of any network marketing, multilevel marketing, or party plan business; it lifts the ceiling off your income, the key that will allow you to keep checks rolling in above and beyond what you can do yourself.

Quick Reference Mentor
I found this very helpful, dispite knowing some things already. I loved hearing her personal stories, HONEST opinions, and advice about women and the workplace. It's still a male favorable world and it's nice to have some good advice and input from someone who's "been there, done that".

What did you like best about Women, Work, and the Art of Savoir Faire? What did you like least?
The best part of this book for me was that it was narrated by the author, Mireille Guiliano. I don't know that I really learned anything new but it was an enjoyable listen - just not one of my favorites.

Career Advice From Your French Fairy Godmother
Author and narrator Mirelle Guiliano plays the part of the gentle, wizened, french-accented mentor in this great book of advice on the act of balancing career and life and doing it with style and class.
It's cliche these days, but it is still a man's world, especially in many work places and women are still struggling to find a way to fit in to the male-culture board rooms and golf courses. Guiliano shares her own, and other women's stories of how they made the workplace their own and succeeded.

This was a delightful book. I especially loved the authors accent and her honest perspective on ways that American women can utilize savoir-faire to their advantage and especially for professional growth. Wished I’d read this book years ago. It’s equal parts: fun, lifestyle, and career development!

Career Advice for a Person in Marketing
I give this book 3.5 stars. The author's career advice is common sense and may not even apply to some people. The author worked in marketing and seems comfortable with crafting pitches, making cold calls, and doing interviews on the radio. That type of assertiveness would be torture for some people.
