words from wise women

As we prepare for the new school year, I thought I'd share some of my favorite, most inspiring books by career women I admire. Whether you're a student or already in the work force, reading other people's success stories (and learning lessons) can be so enriching. One of the best feelings is being able to relate to the people who inspire and empower you, don't you think?

I always recommend to my girlfriends Cathie Black's Basic Black because it's a great autobiography of the Hearst Magazines President, it's filled with wonderful personal and professional advice, and -- best of all -- it's a fun, quick read! Take a peek!

PS: Other fantastic books by fierce women!
