If you're familiar with her prominent and affordable jewelry line, now you can know the story behind the empire. Kendra Scott has created a billion dollar brand and she tells you exactly how she did it in this memoir. It definitely leans a little towards self-help inspirational guru-ness, but it blends well with her background story. There's no fairytale here, just a lot of heartbreak and a lot of hard work. I was surprised to learn about what she had been through, and even more intrigued at the culture of giving back she began at Kendra Scott. I highly encourage you to read this if you have an entrepreneurial spirit! Thank you Netgalley & Worthy Publishing for the free preview e-book!

This is part self-help, part memoir, and part entrepreneurial guide by Kendra Scott, of Kendra Scott designs. I didn't know much about her, just that she owned a jewelry business, but I was curious when I saw the book description.

Kendra discusses her childhood, her first failed business, and how she has succeeded beyond her wildest imaginations with Kendra Scott Designs. She talks about how she wasn't the "typical" entrepreneur who went to business school and had all the answers. She talks about how her company culture is collaborative, and how she wants it to be a supportive place to work. There was a depth to this book I wasn't expecting. Kendra is upfront about her mistakes, and doesn't make excuses.

I really enjoyed this book, thank you so much #Netgalley and #WorthyPublishing for the ARC!

This book, written by Kendra Scott (a very successful woman with her own jewelry-making business) can be described as a self-help book, a memoir, and a guide for entrepreneurs. The book begins with a description of Kendra in a life or death situation. Without giving too much away, this book is packed with memorable quotes, as well as inspiring stories of both Kendra’s life and the lives of those surrounding her. Kendra’s life is full of both tragedies and triumphs. She never gives up and now she is a very successful entrepreneur who leads a business, teaches, and gives back to so many. I found myself dwelling on the countless inspirational quotes throughout the book that really reminded me of what is important in life. My only critique of this book is that at times, only a few, it seemed a bit “sales-y,” as if she is trying to sell her company to the reader. However, I really enjoyed this book and look forward to it being published. I expect that this book will inspire and motivate many people, especially women, for many years to come. I am giving the book 4 out of 5 stars- not my favorite, but definitely worth a read! Thank you to NetGalley and the Worthy Publishing (publisher) for an advanced copy in exchange for an honest review. -Chelsea K. Reviewer
