Minivan Mogul

Trying to be confident in today's world is tough. Brutal, actually. When was the last time you got on social media and thought, "Man, that really helped me feel better about myself?" Give me a break! Sound familiar? Then hop in; we're going for a ride. OK, so you've got some confidence issues. Of course you do! Who doesn't these days? In a world where women are constantly bombarded by unrealistic beauty standards, "Sunday best" glimpses into the lives of others via social media, and TEDx talks on how to give perfect TEDx talks, where does an Average Jane fit in? Meet Alex Perry: successful entrepreneur; speech language pathologist; TEDx speaker; and one proud, minivan-driving mom from the Midwest. Having started her business from the ground up and navigated around road blocks, potholes, and traffic jams, she understands what it's like to struggle with confidence, especially when it feels like the road ahead is always bumpy. Through her honest and delightfully-awkward personal anecdotes, Alex encourages women to apply the brakes when confronted with confidence dead ends-pointless comparisons, insincerity, and stubborn independence, oh my!-and instead steer toward authenticity, support, and determination. Her witty, insightful, and caring guide will empower you to cruise through life's twists and turns with more joy, more peace, and the kind of success that is only found through true confidence. Now grab yourself a cold drink, climb in, and hold on tight*; it's time for your crash course. (*Seriously … hold on tight, bring some extra Cheetos, and please don't make Alex parallel park.)
