Helpful, thoughtful & inspiring!

I really enjoyed the storytelling and narration. This is the perfect listen for anyone who is trying to work out the next steps in their career! Highly recomended.

Excellent perspective setter

I absolutely loved this book. I recently had a professor mention that only 10 percent of the world defines their values. AND 10 percent of the world makes 90 percent of the money. Since then as you can imagine I have been trying to define my values.

This book FINALLY helped me define my values and see things from a bigger picture. Thank you so much Lisa! I loved it :) I would recommend this book to anyone who is interested in self development, and self awareness!

Not my favorite

If you are someone transitioning careers or having a hard time after covid it might be helpful. I found it to be a summary of a lot of different non fiction books but lacking it’s own essence.

Excellent! Very enjoyable.

Excellent, i really enjoyed this listening. Would recommend to anyone. I definitely will listen to it again.

Some lessons worth knowing

Overall, it was an enjoyable book. I'm not sure I learned a ton of life lessons, but still valuable to hear the author's take on how they shaped her life.

Unfortunately, the heavy accent became burdensome to me even though it was originally quaint.
