Amazing Book! I am now still a student but this book really show me the possibility that you can become the way you want. During my own experience studying at different countries, meeting with different people, I've always came up with good business ideas, but I just lacked the courage to really do so. It is so inspring to read this book and know there are a bunch of female founders trying their best to make some differences. As it's mentioned in the book, 'we need stories, examples and idols, which prove to us what is possible and who embody ways that we mimic'.Thank you Lu, this book really means a lot.

An inspiring and insightful book and an excellent idea from Lu Li to publish letters offering advice from 66 successful female entrepreneurs who have made $1 Billion in revenue. Advice like this is not easy to come by as most aspiring entrepreneurs would not have access to these founders who have kindly shared their wisdom and experiences. Refreshing to see founders from various backgrounds and different countries across a wide variety of industry areas, this book should resonate with all aspiring entrepreneurs anywhere in the world regardless of background. I will certainly be using this book as a point of reference as I climb the entrepreneur ladder of success.

Really enjoyed learning about all of these women, a very inspiring collection of stories. Highly recommend.

The book makes a great gift for the other female business owners in my life. I thought it would have more detailed, strategic advice. Instead, it's more of a motivational collection which you can revisit, especially on those days when you're feeling Impostor Syndrome. Overall, a great book with a lot of helpful mindset advice. For more strategic, technical advice on starting and running a company, look elsewhere.

Full of inspiring stories - I loved it !
Reviewed in the United States on January 16, 2020
After reading one letter, I am pretty sure the description on the cover..."66 letters of advice from Women Entrepreneurs who have made $1 billion in revenue"....is cumulative gross revenues!

Decent book if it weren't incredibly misleading about the success of the entrepreneurs featured. Considering there are plenty of women that actually have done this, the book is slightly offensive too.

I don't know the author nor in any of her program just decided to pick this up as I'm making life changes and WOW. This is a great book that gives you some gems that can really help stir you in the right direction.

5.0 out of 5 stars Your daily dose of inspiration for fully fletched or aspirational founders
Reviewed in Germany on June 3, 2017
Being a founder lots of books were recommended to me. All of them are kind of useful, but Lu Li's 'Dear Female Founder' is making a real difference. It's inspirational, it's motivational, and it's a selection of 66 best friends who support you whatever stage of your startup you are in.

I pick one letter a day at random - almost like a treat before starting my busy startup life. Without fail, every letter cheers and set's me up for success for the day ahead. It's a must-have, must-read, must-gift item for any female founder, or friends of female founders.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sisterhood! Real, touching and inspiring stories from powerful ladies.
Reviewed in Italy on January 6, 2017
I am not a person who likes those articles that starts with "5 things that will change your career" but these three, five, six advices from these strong ladies are really inspirational. It makes you feel that they are really with you along your journey. As a book, it's neither a one of those books that you read from the start till the end in one day, nor a bedside book that you open once in a while to fulfil yourself, but it's like a good coffee with a friend! It's a book of sisterhood: whenever you need, you just reopen and read another success story and you feel empowered. I am happy that I made the choice of buying this book! If you are willing to start your own business, do read it!

5.0 out of 5 stars MUST READ: Nothing like you have ever seen before: raw, real, inspiring, challenging and touching
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 14, 2016
If you are a female interested in entrepreneurship - this is a MUST READ.

I cannot say enough how much I wish I have had a resource like that when I was getting stared.
Hearing first hand advice from successful female entrepreneurs -and I mean not a bulls***, generic advice like you hear anywhere else - but advice which is raw, which tells it as it is with all the ups and downs - its just invaluable.

With this book you get insight into the minds of what it truly takes to follow your own path, own who you are and build wealth and abundance.

I absolutely love this book. Its an incredible project aimed to inspire and provide a different type of advice for aspiring female entrepreneurs: raw, real, inspiring, challenging and touching - straight from the heart to heart.

A message from those who have been there to those who are still searching or are on the way.

The book is nothing like what you have seen before. Words I wish someone said to me when I was getting started.
Get it now!
