Ameé Quiriconi - The Fearless Womans Guide to Starting a Business: What Every Woman Needs to Know to be a Courageous, Authentic and Unstoppable Entrepreneur

Praise for The Fearless Womans Guide to Starting a Business

As a therapist, as a fellow female entrepreneur, I want to shout from the rooftops about HOW IMPORTANT this book is! What hardly anyone tells you is that going into business for yourself necessitates some real personal growth work, which causes so many people to give up before theyve shared their greatness with the world. With this witty, engaging book, packed full of relatable metaphors and information about how were affected by stress, Ame provides vitally necessary information to help women succeed. I truly wish I had this book when I started my business; it wouldve deeply empowered me from the start.

Reading this book is like sitting with your best friend and sharing bits of wisdom over coffee or tea. Ame writes in a very refreshing and genuine way. Her guide is an eye-opener, hear-opener, mind-opener! I would recommend it to anyone wanting to move in the right direction in life and business.

Michaella Rugwizangoga , business leader, poet, member of the World Economic Forum Future Global Council on Mobility

I have always referred Ame as a coach when I know an entrepreneur is strugglingand not because their business plan is weak, but because Ame knows how to get straight to the heart of challenging issues that foil otherwise great execution. If you need help getting out of your own way, then follow Ames advice.

In The Fearless Womans Guide to Starting a Business , Ame offers an inspiring playbook for women who are passionate about caging their fears and crushing their entrepreneurial goals.

Dr. Brad Klontz , financial psychologist and author of Money Mammoth: Harness the Power of Financial Psychology to Evolve Your Money Mindset, Avoid Extinction, and Crush Your Financial Goals

This book is written with every intention of supplying ALL women the knowledge to reflect, understand, pursue, and implement the necessities to create a phenomenal business and a true sense of self. A page-turner with smiles and agreeance throughout, this book is one that EVERY woman should read, before and during any stage of entrepreneurship.

Irene Wilkins , cofounder and chief solutionist at Achievet Business Solutions, LLC

This book calls out why we crave validation from others and strips that toxic narrative down to its core. The reader feels unsure, even unsafe in the beginning, then empowered, and ultimately walks away with a deep knowing and self-awareness every human being should have. Its a must-read for all women, femmes, and underdogsnot just entrepreneurs.

Maggie Greene , CEO of Maggie Greene Style

I wish that Ames book, The Fearless Womans Guide to Starting a Business , was written sooner! When I started my business as a single mom just getting out of a DV relationship, I didnt have that blueprint that Ame outlines in her guide, so I floundered a LOT longer than I needed to. I also appreciated that she also explained how trauma and sexism can prevent us from really going after what we want (and deserve!). Even though Ive been running my business since 2008, I found that her chapter on finding value and changing my money mindset was exactly what I needed to hear to begin to take my earnings to the next level.

Giovannie Espiritu , founder of HollywoodActorsWorkshop.com

Ame forges a path between your childhood experiences and family dynamics to give you practical advice on how to best approach entrepreneurship. Her book is helpful in understanding where you came from and how that can effectively get you where youre going on your career journey. I found it insightful, well-written, and sensible.

Ariel Kochbarski , fashion and creative consultant at Of The Momnt

Ame gets it! Its so much more than a guide to starting a business, it is a guide for succeeding while living your best life. For the more than 80 percent of woman who were raised in dysfunction, the information packed in these pages will help you channel that experience into a superpower. The Fearless Womans Guide to Starting a Business bridges that gap between dysfunction and trauma, how this plays out in our professional lives, and what to do about it before it sabotages you.

Lara Currie , author of Difficult Happens: How Triggers Boundaries & Emotions Impact You Every Day

Most aspiring business owners will ask questions like How do I start a business? and What are the steps? While these are important questions, their answers never address the nuance, the complexities, and the difficulties behind taking these steps. Thats why what I love about this book is that it is not a how-to of what to do; rather its a how-to of how to be. Ame takes us on a journey and reveals reasons behind our actions and beliefs (and the why under the why) that allow us to truly move forward in a way that will allow us to be more successful than weve ever dreamed in our businesses, careers, and lives.

Sharon Podobnik Peterson , founder and head leadership coach at The Center for Conscious Leadership

If youre looking for a utilitarian book about starting a business, Ame Quirconis The Fearless Womans Guide to Starting a Business is not for you. She doesnt talk about writing business plans or setting up websites, but instead delves into the psychology and mindset needed to be a successful entrepreneur. I wish I had had this book twenty years ago when I started my business.

Molly Gimmel , CEO of Design To Delivery, Inc. and past chair of NAWBO

Blending concepts in neuroscience, business wisdom, and personal, hard-earned life lessons, Ames writing is at once relatable, fascinating, and invigorating. As a woman, marketer, and aspiring social entrepreneur, I deeply resonate with the chapter on authenticity and integrity. And Im sure you too will find those moments of yes! that I did. The icing on the cake are the powerful exercises that Ame integrates throughout to help you personalize the concepts. Bravo, Ame!
