Ok, so I finally caved and read this book. #GIRLBOSS
What makes #GIRLBOSS resonate with so many women is Sophia Amoruso’s accessibility and cool-girl aesthetic. In her writing, she comes across as the girlfriend sitting across the bonfire from you at a chilled out party. She could be you or me, if we had the right attitude and wherewithal to stick with one of our ideas. It is so challenging to stay inspired through the trials of a startup or business idea! Sophia’s personality, and the importance she placed on listening to her customer, helped her build the loyal community that makes up the foundation of Nasty Gal. But there’s more. Since this book was published, her message has resonated with all kinds of women – not just the ones who shop her brand. Sophia’s story and charisma has attracted a much broader audience, especially the business and marketing-minded, regardless of their personal style.
#GIRLBOSS Radio
A #GIRLBOSS Radio podcast has ALSO launched highlighting even more inspirational stories from women who are trailblazers in their fields. Each episode is filled with little gems of advice. I’ve mentioned before that I have a long commute to work, and #GIRLBOSS Radio has reclaimed many an hour of my life as useful. I highly recommend this podcast, especially if you don’t have the time to read books or aren’t as interested in Sophia!
Nasty Galaxy
What’s next on the horizon for Nasty Gal? Sophia is releasing her second, more visual book, Nasty Galaxy
