Books Recommended by Lisa Terziman-Gutu

The book which influenced me the most was probably “Lean In: Women, Work, and the Will to Lead Book"" by Nell Scovell and Sheryl Sandberg.

Why this book in particular? I had the same feeling that I can’t assume any responsibility or dare for something, until I’m 300% sure that I’m amazingly good at such time of job. This book helped me to try new things, which I never did before, like start my own startup, even though I didn’t have enough experience in the field. I failed many times, but I never gave up and did my best in order to succeed. Another thing I’m grateful for is breaking the stereotypes I had back home - that you should either choose between your work or a family. You can’t do both at the same time.

This is exactly what Sheryl did and had, which means that it’s possible to have it both, no matter what others are saying.
