Why should people read it? Who is the book for?

The world has taught so many of us to mistakenly believe that we’re undeserving of happiness or success. This is all because of who we are. In “A Power of Your Own: How to Ignite Your Potential, Uncover Your Purpose, and Blaze Your Own Trail in Life and Business,” Nikki Groom weaves an inspiring message for women entrepreneurs and anyone who has ever felt underestimated. No matter who you are, you matter, you are enough and you are needed on the planet.

Single most important takeaway:

“Power-from-within is not about dominating, controlling or oppressing other people, which is how we traditionally think about power. Neither is there a limited amount to go around. Instead, power-from-within is limitless, and you get to keep your power at the same time as you elevate others.”
