Womentality: Thirteen Empowering Stories by Everyday Women Who Said Goodbye to the Workplace and Hello to Their Lives is a collection of powerful, personal essays from enterprising women around the world who came to the same realization: work shouldn't have to be painful and demeaning. Armed with an internet connection and plenty of creativity and ingenuity, they prove that it is possible to redefine the nine-to-five work paradigm and create a flourishing career that is flexible and fulfilling outside the corporate structure.
The thirteen women-from diverse countries such as Uganda, Venezuela, Poland, Palestine, and the Philippines-approach independent work in different ways, but are all motivated by the same impulses-to escape the drudgery of office life, to have control of their time, and to enjoy the freedom of working for themselves. Importantly, many discover that-outside of the office-it is possible to triumph over global pay disparities that favor men.
Womentality is not a book about people who do not work-on the contrary, these women work hard and their stories illustrate how they overcame challenges to achieve their goals-whether they sought freedom to travel, to spend more time with the family, escape demeaning office politics, or simply to control their career.
The essays in Womentality prove that a life of independence is not reserved for elite, American workers. It is possible for anyone. As the women who contributed to Womentality can attest: escaping the nine-to-five life isn't easy-it takes guts and persistence-but it's absolutely worthwhile.
