"A defiant charge to women to 'reclaim ambition as a virtue'... 'Wouldn't it be inspiring if you could acknowledge straight up, to yourself and to others, that you have big, wild and precious professional goals?' Condren's corrective manifesto urges women to pry apart the bars of 'common self-imposed traps' which cause ambitious women to 'sell themselves short'... " -" "The" New York Times

"Debra Condren's book is something I wish I had twenty years ago. Having learned from my mistakes, being a person who self-sabotaged for many years, afraid of the A-word, life as a mother, a filmmaker, and an actor has made me come to terms with the word ambition. It's okay and I'm proud of who I am today. Read this book so you can avoid the long road of self-sabotage and embrace ambition as a powerful virtue." -Rosanna Arquette, actress
