Overview
Brown Ambition is the no-BS guide to rebooting your career and finances for the woman who refuses to stifle her ambition and shrink her goals just because life is lifing.
You’ve got job drama, you’re getting crushed by caregiving, and you’re trying to work your way up in a society that would much rather see you settle for scraps. You deserve a money and career book that gets what it’s like trying to build wealth and nab that VP promotion during the messiest decades of your life.
In Brown Ambition, award-winning journalist and Brown Ambition podcast host Mandi Woodruff-Santos hands you the tools you need to course correct your career and finances without pretending you’re not a human with real sh*t going on. (Because who’s saving exactly 10% for retirement when cash flow is tight, layoffs are looming, and your kid’s daycare bill just went up again?)
Drawing on her own hard-earned lessons as a mom, entrepreneur and career coach, as well as real stories from coaching clients and podcast listeners, Woodruff-Santos serves up actionable exercises and memorable frameworks so you can finally:
- Reclaim your story and release the shame that’s keeping you stuck
- Build a reputation and community that open doors to juicier opportunities
- Make a strategic career pivot and negotiate like a baddie using her Compensation Cupcake method and word-for-word scripts
- Identify your financial reboot season, triage debt, and build a retirement strategy—even if you’re starting later, carrying debt, or working for yourself
- Use the 60/30/10 Hyrbid Hustler approach to build a business of your own without ditching your 9-to-5
- Protect what you’re building and create a legacy without waiting until you’re wealthy
Full of candor, humor and practical tools, Brown Ambition is for the woman who is ready for a new beginning but not willing to start over from scratch.
