All the books I have used and recommend can be easily browsed and purchased via my bookstore on Amazon.com.

Rock yourself out.

"who says you must only be one thing? who says you can't be an artist and want to make money? would you only invest in one stock? would you bank your life savings on that stock? hell no! it's all about diversification. it's about being honest with regard to your value and your potential."

Felicia Sullivan, all-around rockstar whom I'm so freaking proud of.

Boss Lady Panel Podcast

Finally the podcast from the panel I did at SXSW in March is up. Listening to it I felt really proud (yes, even with the embarrassment of realising I talked about vomit) of all that we said in it. The advice that Emira, Lauren, Jenny and Vickie shared I think is really valuable and I hope the fun we had really came through.

Successful, creative and self-taught entrepreneurs (from graphic designers, to producers, to crafters) will discuss and offer advice on what it's really like to be the gal running the show. With experience running their own successful businesses on-line and off, each of these women has a wealth of information, advice and success stories to share. The panel will explore what makes business different from a female perspective, the particular challenges the panelists have faced, how to create/maintain a business with/without employees and how to achieve financial success all without boas or pink markers.
