Hollis, an author, business podcaster, and motivational speaker, shows women how to focus on themselves and not others and pursue personal and professional goals by letting go of excuses, adopting good habits and behaviors, and acquiring the necessary skills for growth. She explains how to let go of excuses like not being a goal-oriented person, lacking time, fear of failure, and fear of what other people think; how to learn behaviors like asking for help, not asking permission, embracing ambition, not allowing people to talk them out of their goals, and learning to say no; and how to use skills like planning, confidence, persistence, effectiveness, positivity, and leadership.
