As we start “Paving New Roads to Construction” for the 2019-2020 NAWIC year, the book that will be discussed by all of the Leadership Book Club groups beginning in October is, Girl, Stop Apologizing: A Shame-Free Plan for Embracing and Achieving Your Goals. In Girl, Stop Apologizing, #1 New York Times bestselling author and founder of a multimillion-dollar media company, Rachel Hollis, sounds a wake-up call. She knows that many women have been taught to define themselves in terms of how they relate to other people—whether as wife, mother, daughter, or employee—instead of learning how to own who they are themselves and what they want. With a challenge to women everywhere to stop talking themselves out of their dreams, Hollis identifies the excuses to let go of, the behaviors to adopt, and the skills to acquire on the path to growth, confidence, and believing in yourself.
The Leadership Book Club is open to all members. If you are interested in participating in one of the monthly calls and/or the Facebook group, contact Anne Pfleger, CIT, NAWIC President-Elect at akpnawic@charlesinc.com.
“I believe we can change the world. But first, we’ve got to stop living in fear of being judged for who we are.” ~ Rachel Hollis
