Success to die for
Lynette Davis
- Women
- are
- finally
- taking
- a
- seat
- at
- the
- proverbial
- table
- as
- startup
- founders,
- company
- presidents,
- C-suite
- executives,
- and
- the
- multiple
- role-playing
- small
- business
- owner
- –
- but
- at
- what
- cost?
- This
- truth-revealing
- and
- daring
- book
- reveals
- the
- hidden
- struggles
- involved
- with
- the
- pursuit
- of
- success
- among
- the
- chaos
- of
- workplace
- cultures
- fueled
- with
- blame,
- shame,
- microaggressions,
- and
- fear-based
- competitiveness.
- The
- text
- also
- shares
- how
- women
- leaders
- find
- ways
- to
- cope
- and
- thrive
- despite
- their
- mental
- illness.
- Mental
- health
- peer
- advocate
- and
- writer
- Lynette
- Davis
- explores
- and
- exposes
- the
- personal
- narratives
- of
- female
- business
- owners.
- These
- women
- are
- revealed
- as
- pioneers
- who,
- despite
- mental
- health
- disorders,
- are
- in
- the
- trenches
- of
- this
- chaos
- –
- plowing
- ahead
- in
- order
- to
- create
- opportunities
- for
- themselves,
- their
- families,
- and
- younger
- generations
- of
- girls
- who
- have
- yet
- to
- enter
- the
- workforce.
- Success
- To
- Die
- For
- offers
- itself
- up
- as
- a
- caveat
- not
- only
- to
- change
- the
- game
- by
- adequately
- addressing
- the
- links
- between
- mental
- illness
- and
- entrepreneurship,
- but
- also
- to
- be
- an
- idea
- catalyst
- for
- suicide
- prevention
- through
- innovation
- in
- company
- ethics,
- policies,
- and procedures.
