Publisher Description
Ladies Who Launch is the first company to define the feminine approach to launching a business and to make the connection between starting a business and bringing creativity into your life with self-esteem and happiness. The nationally acclaimed Ladies Who Launch program has enabled thousands of women across the country to break out of the nine-to-five mold and thrive in entrepreneurial enterprises that reflect their true passions, skills, and desires. Located in more than forty cities in the United States, the Ladies Who Launch incubators—workshops that give women the support and encouragement they need to embark on making their dreams reality—have inspired women to start businesses, grow existing companies, and tap into their creativity to develop essential services and products and enjoy the lifestyle of their dreams while doing it.
Available for the first time in book form, the four-step incubator process, using self-tests, inspiring stories, and practical information, gives women the courage to follow a cherished but unfulfilled dream. Through this unique program women are encouraged to
—Imagine it: allow a secret desire to come to light
—Speak it: choose a dream to pursue
—Do it: take effective action to make it reality
—Celebrate it: revel in successes, reward effort, and be good to yourself along the way
Ladies Who Launch provides a proven approach to igniting a fire under a long-smoldering dream, having more fun, and catapulting a lifestyle, relationship, or occupation to an infinitely higher level.

"Wonderful book that avoids the fluff. It has practical tools in inspiring women to launch their own business. It has list-making exercises that can lead to creative ideas or create a window to one's own personality. Worthwhile."
