Summary:
Every woman lives by a code that informs how she treats others and herself, how much she expects of herself, and how far she is willing to go in order to find success. But are we sacrificing the deeper things for mere achievement? Nelson calls women to live out a powerful life code that will lead them to purposeful and successful lives-- and to do it with grace.
