When lockdown first hit, I felt prompted to go on a world tour... a virtual journey through thirteen stories about dreaming, daring, and doing. My tour guides? Women entrepreneurs and leaders I hadn't met yet. They live and work on four of the world's five inhabited continents. We differ in how old we are, where we come from, and what we do. But there's a surprising amount we have in common: We understand each other's dreams. We all have the courage to dare and to do, despite the barriers - large or small - that our environment throws at us or that we even create ourselves. To encourage dreamers to take action, to let the darers do their thing, and to get the doers dreaming: That's the mission of this book, my mission. THE PROCEEDS FROM THIS BOOK WILL GO TO WOMEN IN TECH, A GLOBAL NONPROFIT INITIATIVE THAT AIMS TO MAKE FIVE MILLION GIRLS AND WOMEN MORE DIGITALLY LITERATE BY 2030.
