Trade Review"We can do it all, ladies. As a fellow mum and entrepreneur, I stay sane by reminding myself that I am an excellent role model for my daughters. Be brave, be bold, and believe you can. This book will help you pull the rip cord and take your first steps -- it won't be easy but where there is a will there is a way" --Nicole Soames, CEO, Diadem Performance and author of The Negotiation Book "A practical guide, written with so much heart! Christine draws brilliantly on her experiences as a mom and entrepreneur to give readers the tools to integrate their career and family lives." --Sanyin Siang, Executive Director of the Fuqua/Coach K Center, Duke University and author of The Launch Book "The book might as well be written to men who want a balance between running their own business and their family. It's good because it addresses the challenge of being a passionate person who wants to create their own business and keep a close relationship with their children as well. It is not unusual that women understate their interest in their children to make sure they are taken seriously as business women. In this book, they've got a voice. Thank you for that. All in all, a fine and inspiring book that I would recommend." --Ulla Bechsgaard, Jyllands-Posten (Danish Newspaper)
