From the bestselling author of Girl Code, Cara Alwill Leyba delivers Girl on Fire —the long-awaited follow up fans have been waiting for.
The self-publishing queen started this conversation four years ago with Girl Code, her ode to women and their power, a book so successful that it has been translated in seven languages and continues to make a major impact on the world. Girl On Fire builds on this concept and shows you how to blaze your own trail immediately. You don’t need permission from anyone to live fearlessly and start living your dream.
As an early voice in the female-driven movement, Cara continues to be a leader in the space, liberating women to trust their intuition and create their own opportunities. She empowers her readers to stop waiting for their big break and, instead, to publish their own books, start their own podcasts, host their own panels and design their own clothing lines; whatever their desires are.
From the author:
Who would you be if you stopped following *their* rules? What would you create if you create if you had nothing holding you back?
Now that women entrepreneurs are banding together in sisterhood and realizing the importance of collaboration over competition, it’s time to take things to the next level. It’s time to rise up, together, and challenge the status quo. It’s time to question the way things have been done in the past, to write our own rules, and do life and business OUR way.
The world needs us, as women, to utilize our voices now more than ever. We must step into our power and we must let nothing hold us back.
Business is changing rapidly, and there has never been a better time to choose yourself. Gone are the days of waiting to be chosen by an agent, a record label, a company, or a publisher.
Successful entrepreneurs don’t wait for their “big break” —they create it. They don’t wait to be featured in a magazine, or picked up by a publisher, or given a chance to speak on a stage. They promote themselves on platforms they create, they self-publish their own books, they launch their own podcasts, they create their own events and build their own stages.
Now is the time to show up for ourselves. We all have the ability to design a life and career beyond our wildest imaginations without permission, selection, or validation. Girl on Fire will show you how to do it.
This book is for every woman who has had a vision that others might not understand. It’s for every woman who is sick and tired of playing by the rules. It’s for every woman who has known she was meant for more and has waited far too long for someone to give her the permission she thought she needed.

Can I Give A 10 Star?? âï¸âï¸âï¸âï¸âï¸âï¸âï¸âï¸âï¸âï¸
Holy Crap. This book! â â Cover to cover in one day, and then I spent this morning listening to the rain going back to answer all the questions. ð§â â To briefly explain why Iâm so obsessed with Cara, sheâs a self published author dedicated towards inspiring women. She published Girl Code, which was then picked up and republished by Penguin Random House, and got a book deal for her book, Like She Owns The Place. â â What I love so much about her, is that after getting the authorâs DREAM, she went back and self-published Girl On Fire, and in this book explains why you donât need other people to choose you to be validated in your work. â â Iâve struggled with this for Future Boss Lady, and I personally self published because I just couldnât stand to sit around and wait for someone to believe in me. I believed in FBL so much that I knew it needed to be out there, book deal or not. â â Reading Girl on Fire made me feel so secure in that decision and made me feel inspired to do it over and over again. â â I HIGHLY recommend this book for writers and self published authors, but I also recommend it for anyone that needs to feel uplifted and inspired. â â Cara says so many profound and beautiful things that just fueled my soul, and I closed this book feeling energized, excited, and ready to take on the world. â â This book could not have come to me at a more perfect time, and I hope anyone and everyone gets a chance to read it. â â Follow Cara at @thechampagnediet , she also has a podcast called Style Your Mind, and you can grab her book on Amazon! â â I canât thank you enough Cara, you are a freaking rockstar! âï¸

Wow I really enjoyed this book
I did hesitate at first reading reviews but I got a complete opposite view as I read the book. . This book came at just the right time for me. So inspiring. It felt like I just had a friend over for the afternoon. Her writing is easy to read, she is kind , wise and inspirational in all her words. She doesnât fill her pages with fluff like a lot of authors. Totally enjoyed each chapter. Ending book with new vision ,inspiration and direction again. It was a quick read for me but I enjoyed every minute of it.Wonderful to read how she stepped out to find her dreams and accomplished what she set out to do. Great read!

GIRL ON FIRE REVIEW
Rating: âï¸âï¸âï¸âï¸Review: I really enjoyed the overall concept of this book. It was easy to follow along and give pieces of inspiration here and there. The main concept is to stop living by everyone else’s rules and write your own permission slip to be yourself and be the best version of you that you can be! Help lift others up vs destroying each other. A decent read overall and would suggest to anyone who needs a quick pick me up!

Great Inspiring Read!
This is the first book Iâve read by cara and absolutely loved it. I found her personality to be so relatable and down to earth. Her personality definitely comes through in her writing and I love how she shared personal stories of friends successes too. I even started following some of them too. This book introduced me to her podcast which I now listen to weekly. Iâm definitely going to move on to read one of her other books next. I love how she uses inspiration to motivate women. Being in my mid thirties this book gave me the motivation to keep pursuing my dreams. But what I loved the most was how she encouraged the idea of multiple dreams. Iâve always been told to just pick one thing and stick to it. But I have multiple passions and interests and cara is the first author Iâve ever really seen push for that, support it, and encourage it. Iâm definitely a fan now.

I got so many great ideas from this book!
I highly recommend this book, and I canât wait to read her other books and get to work on taking my ideas and developing and implementing them!

In few words: an autobiography. There are points of reflections, but the concepts are not digged in. On the contrary, these reflections are supported by the authorâs episodes of life, very repetitive. I was expecting a theoretical book, some practical and personal exemples can be inspiring, then they become boring.

Was highly recommended and did not disappoint. The book lifts and empowers. It is a great read for all women not only business owners. It encourages women to go for it. A great present for women to give to fellow women to inspire and motivate.
