The autobiography of one of the biggest makeup mogels in the business and she did it her way - using “regular” models that weren‘t always skinny with perfect skin.

Beautiful mix of autobiography and life coaching/inspiration. I could re-listen to this several more times. Sooo many good points and perspectives. She values hard work, commitment, and dreaming big!

I generally enjoy memoirs but this one just didn't work for me. Mainly because of the misleading caption "How to go from underestimated to unstoppable". I empathize with Jamie and love how she advocates for women lifting other women. It felt like a bunch of Instagram quotes put together but I didn't find how she picked herself up when she was down or more about the business.
