“For those who have felt uncomfortable in a ‘man’s world,’ Dr. Luz Longsworth offers her road less travelled—the zigzag path of being authentic and aligned with one’s values consistently in all situations. She gets real about what it means to be a successful woman in leadership—soft, caring, kind—and how we can embrace these attributes as our superpowers. This is a must-read for all women with ambition to be and do more, on their own terms—and perhaps to men who feel there’s another, better way to lead. How I wish I had this book to guide me throughout my career.”
