If you’re a working woman and you’ve picked up this book, it’s probably because you’ve got some questions. Maybe you’re just starting out, or maybe you’re already pretty experienced. Still, you’ve got questions. You’re in the right place – read on.
The book you’re holding right now is a curation of career advice and insights inspired by my own experiences as a young woman trying to make my way in the world. Despite having been lucky enough to start my career at some of the world’s top ad agencies, and later working for cult youth brand Vice, after a few years I found myself at something of a career crossroads: completely unsure of what to do next, but knowing deep down that I needed to make a change – sound familiar?
Feeling certain my own experiences couldn’t be unique, and desperate to connect with other like-minded women, I decided to combine the things I’m most inspired by – creativity, women and work – into a platform that could support and inspire working women everywhere. Enter Women Who: a modern community connecting women who, separately, are all having the same thoughts when they wake up in the morning. Women who are striving for more. Women who, like me, want – or need – to make a change.
