I've been a cheerleader. A corporate executive. A Barbie Doll. A sports caster. A soap opera vixen. A side-line reporter. A Playboy cover model. A Diamond Diva. A red-carpet correspondent. An investigative journalist. A disrupter. I made Dennis Rodman cry. I've interviewed three presidents and hundreds of athletes. I co-starred in a viral video that has one billion views. I sued the New England Patriots-and won. I tracked down a murderer. I was hit by a car. I butted heads with Barbara Walters. I even played myself in a movie starring Brad Pitt.

Colleagues would joke-sometimes on national TV-that she clinched big interviews because of sexual acts rather than talent. She made a mistake on air during the opening game on Monday Night Football that cost her her sportscasting career... and almost her life.Fast forward a few years, and Guerrero has achieved phenomenal success as Inside Edition's Chief Investigative Correspondent. Her stories have led to arrests, changed federal legislation and policies at Fortune 500 companies, and helped shine a light on crime, scams, child abuse, and even cold case murders. And in the last decade alone, she has won over thirty-five national journalism honours and awards.Today, Guerrero is bombarded with emails and direct messages from people of every generation who all want to know the same thing: "How are you so brave? How can I be brave too?" Women dealing with husbands, friends, in-laws, co-workers, and bosses ask for the courage to request raises, be taken seriously at meetings, and stand up to abusive spouses. Teens and pre-teens ask for advice on dealing with bullies, teachers, and parents. Warrior-filled with the incisive stories of failure, struggles, challenges, perseverance, and finally, success-is her answer.
