Fearless Summary

Fearless: Girls with dreams, women with vision by Janice McDonald

From childhood dreamers to fearless women: stories of passion, leadership and success.

In this collection of inspiring true stories, Janice McDonald-entrepreneur, speaker, and host of the Fearless Women podcast-brings together notable, extraordinary, unafraid women from Canada and around the world, and asks them to look back at the moments in their youth that set them on the path to leadership. Some were born to leap into the spotlight, others discovered a quiet strength along the way; women who dared, who challenged convention, who found connection, or who braved it alone-each has a powerful lesson to tell about a girl who once dreamed of what she might accomplish. Fearless: Girls with Dreams, Women with Vision is a powerful and necessary celebration of women taking risks, facing down fears, and blazing a trail.

If you can't break the glass ceiling, find a way to climb on top of it.

I believe, as has been said many times, that what didn't kill me has only made me stronger.

It was never the crowd I feared, it was not being accepted. And when I completely embraced who I was and owned my journey, it no longer mattered what anyone else thought.
