Victoria Colligan and Beth Schoenfeldt’s Ladies Who Launch: Embracing Entrepreneurship and Creativity as a Lifestyle is the latest in a long line of books designed to encourage readers to break free of your cubicular, 9-to-5 restraints and follow your dream, be it starting your own business, or, well, starting your own business.

Unique to Colligan and Schoenfeldt’s book, however, is that it focuses solely on the success stories of women. They have edited together professional tips and advice with examples of “actual” women who made the program work.

The Today Show has posted the introduction, which you may read here.
