SHINE is a must-read for women of all ages, filled with raw advice and laugh-out-loud moments. You will find inspiration and comfort within these pages, as well as practical tips to be the best version of yourself. Finding your ‘SHINE’ is a personal journey, but it doesn’t hurt to have a little help along the way to becoming your authentic self. SHINE is not a book about magic pills, trivial superficialities, or trying to turn back time. It is about doing the hard work, facing challenges, and finding yourself. It is about looking in the mirror and loving who you really are on the inside. It is about finding the joy in doing the hard work. It is about being vulnerable, shame-resilient, and kind. It is about celebrating idiosyncrasies and imperfections. It is about putting on your big-girl pants and throwing away the crutches. It is about truly living a life of purpose. SHINE is the story of having it all and it not being enough. It’s about owning your story and sharing it to help others. SHINE is ultimately about finding the courage to overcome obstacles, grow and embrace life through agency and purpose. We all have the power to SHINE! The author, Donna Groves, is the founder and managing director of international consulting firm Comacon, and a founder and chairperson of the National Community Engagement for Infrastructure Forum. She has spent 30 years building a career in the male-dominated infrastructure, construction, and natural resources sector. Her success is a testament to her tenacity, resilience and determination. Donna has faced many challenges throughout her career and used a metaphoric hatchet to smash the glass ceilings that blocked her. Donna is also a wife and mother, a sports lover and an equality advocate dedicated to living a healthy, balanced life that supports environmental sustainability. However, this book is about overcoming her biggest obstacle – herself.
