In a world where ambitious, young women often undergo a lot of skepticism, Masoom Minawala’s new book, “She’ll Never Make It,” is a light-hearted guide on resilience and empowerment. The book not only challenges those who have it in themselves to venture in uncharted territories but also mirrors Masoom’s struggles and wins across the years of her entering the influencer industry.
Blurb:
‘She’ll never make it’ is something many ambitious, driven and entrepreneurial young women hear, especially if they want to do something totally different. And Masoom Minawala was no exception. Ridiculed and derided, Masoom decided to prove everyone wrong. Today she’s one of the top influencer-creators in India and companies line up to get her to endorse their products. Because when Masoom says ‘buy’, her 1.4 million followers trust her and her judgement.
This is the story of how Masoom, despite multiple setbacks and failures, scaled it to the top – and how you can too. Brutally honest, this book is packed with Masoom’s secrets on how to build a new-age business and survive in a dynamic world.
From how to network if you’re a shy person to the truth behind work-life balance, this book tells it like it is.
An indispensable book for the Indian woman who wants to prove everyone wrong.
