Publisher's summary

Valley Girls is an impassioned call-to-action and a clear-eyed guide for every woman with a brilliant business idea who has been sitting on the sidelines. It offers inspiration, role models, and a clear path to empower women to follow their dreams.

Author Kelley Steven-Waiss, founder and former CEO of the SaaS tech start-up Hitch Works (Hitch), knew that less than 3% of venture capital went to all-women founding teams in the year she set out to be an entrepreneur. And yet, she managed to succeed. Now, she gives other women the benefit of her experience, as well as that of the diverse female founders she interviewed.

What did they all have in common? Which strategies brought success, and which failed? How did they persevere through the hard times? This practical, hands-on guide and the powerful and passionate women profiled in it answer these questions and more, paving the way for all women to succeed.

Practical advice from the trenches

I really enjoyed how Kelley
wove through the stories of multiple female founders together with hers. I think she did a great job, organizing the content and giving concise lessons learned but really teaching through the stories. The only thing that was a little bit confusing in the audiobook was having one narrator and switching between her own story and others, there might have been a way to make that a little bit more clear. But the content was great!
