Once I started reading, I couldn't stop! From the very first yarn, where four-year-old Shelley makes her way to the grocery store on her tricycle after being told she can't go, we are given a window into a brilliant, empathic, and creative mind, heart and soul that always finds a way. If you are looking for inspiration to trust yourself more, take brave action, tap into your passion like never before, and make your own path, this is exactly the book you need to read right now. It's real. It's powerful. It's a joyful experience. I love this book!

Shelley shares with us her creative and entrepreneurial journey in a way that makes us identify with her every step of the way. Her stories, experiences, and advice are strong, and she offers an empowering message, especially for those of us who are trying to make our way through life freelancing and building our own projects. This book will move you and help you find the determination to make that dream of yours come true.

One of many gifts I got from Move the Needle is a message I needed to hear: that character is something we build from our experiences, and if we keep working at it, good things come. The tiny girl who took off on her tricycle to the store kept trying, and she got to a lot of interesting places.
