Secrets of Six-Figure Women: Surprising Strategies to Up Your Earnings and Change Your Life Paperback – March 2, 2004

Great book!! This book is all about fixing your personal insecurities around money narrative, how you self-manage money, talk of money, or of other's people money, and overall actionable and mental tips to be more confident with money.I'm glad I bought this book because it was the NEXT thing I needed in my life. My husband and I were debt free 5/24/2019 by following Dave Ramsey (check him out!).I knew I needed to make more money so I can live my dream life, so her book was the perfect money mental preparation for the next money goals we planned to embark! Take this book seriously and manifest what she says; if not, it's going to be read as "just another motivational book".Also, I'd like to point out that no matter your race, religion, adversities, income, education, marital status, kids or none, your past job experiences, we all have what it takes and many reasons to improve our money status- to be debt free, make 6 figures, or take a pay cut but to work that gives a purpose, etc. While stats and research conclude that if you're from a certain background that impose generally more adversities, it doesn't mean you can't do it. You may just have less or more adversities than your female counterparts but that still don't change the end results. The social and cultural issues she does address in this book are collectively tied to gender discrimination, women's financial literacy, and women empowerment.I am a first-generation college student in my family, paid off my school loans (25k over 5 months) with just my husband's support, a woman of color, work in HR, a dream for a better future. Don't let your adversities stop you, be led by your dreams.

I have to be honest, the kindle book was a little too pricey for the average woman and I truly believe that every one should be able read this book. Nevertheless, the investment was worth it. The book is well written and easy to follow, providing the perspective of not only successful women but also women who classify themselves as underearners.I highly recommend this book to every women because it is empowering and a useful resource. I just wish it (the kindle version at least) is accessible or affordable.If the kindle version of this book was a little cheaper (because the current price point is just around a dollar difference compared to the paperback version), I think a lot of women would read and benefit from it.It should be a book about empowering women to raise above their circumstances and the current price point is just insanely high. For example, if we want the youth (or recent college graduates) to also succeed in life in the most early way possible, it should be affordable for them too.Not that I am devaluing the book or the author's brilliance and words of wisdom (as the book did mention that we should price our products and services how we believe they should be) but I really think if it was a little lower it would reach a wider audience and still maintain consistent sales and it's ranking. I truly believe it's a groundbreaking book and worth sharing (or getting in the hands of many women possible). Hopefully the author considers my review or suggestions.

Although, I don't remember exactly what I read in this book, something must have rubbed off because I quit working at a job that wasn't aligned with my purpose and was actually costing me to get there, only to find a better paying job, but then wasn't a healthy environment, but instead of staying, I left much much quicker than it normally would take for me to realize it wasn't worth it.I didn't really try to stay and "work it out" or "deal with it" and then I finally just left the industry altogether to find something perfectly in alignment with me and my ultimate goals. I found that job a couple months later and when hired, I was given a raise on the spot, which as a serial under earner was a huge deal.I definitely think to change we've got to learn from those who are doing, so although as an artist, I couldn't completely relate or want to be the women she wrote about. I do believe that this and her other book helped me on a subconscious level.Along with this, I've been reading Overcoming Under Earning, also by Barbara Stanny, Mindset by Carol Dweck, and a book called Unleash Your Inner Money Babe by Kathrin Zenkina.

This book has changed multiple perspectives of my life. At first I was shocked to learn I had no real concept of my own relationship with money and was triggered when I discovered it was rooted in how my parents taught me (or didn’t teach me) how to deal with money. She explains how being an underearner is a reflection of your own self doubt and insecurities. This book is about more than money. I have never had so many of my personal fears discussed in a book and thrown into my face WITH a solution to the problem. By the end of the book we were discussing self care and tapping into the GODDES POWER we try so hard to deny and hide. I will be sending this book to many of my friends and rereading in the future! -Autumn Black

I found this work to be insightful, informative and inspiring as someone who has and is still learning what it means to utilize one’s power in various markets. I appreciate what has been named even though there has been some level of evolution to the application of the strategies named. A helpful work in terms of identifying other resources and tools as well.

This is not just a book! This is a whole guide for women got stuck in a crossroad between the life they deserve, and the old patterns!
