I received an e-mail from a young (20-something) woman, newly married and no kids (that she knows of). She had read an advanced copy of my book and got so much more out of it than she (or I) had expected! Without going into the details, she had been receiving pressure from her family about quitting her job when she became a mom. After reading my book, she says she “finally feels released of that pressure.” She went on to say that The ParentPreneur Edge was one of those “…rare ‘reads’ that moved (her) and allowed (her) to learn and grow in ways that (she) truly believes will have an amazingly positive impact on her future.” Wow. I literally cried when I read that. THAT is why I wrote the book - to have a positive impact on others, though admittedly I imagined parents getting the most out of the book. Who knew?! You don’t have to be a parent to get it. That is better than any good book review or media coverage. That is real!
