Overview

An astounding true story of a young woman driven by her desire to escape chauvinism blazes a whirlwind path full of mystical encounters and unexpected adventures. From love to lawsuits, her business and personal life intertwine, bringing her to untold heights. Uncanny predictions from a chance encounter with a Fulbright Scholar from India follow her throughout life, as if written on the wall and fated to happen.

Determined to explore opportunities, she breaks through a glass ceiling of seventy men and later founds an innovative startup in New York City. Whether skiing the powdery snow in Aspen, or waking up on a beach in Mexico to men with machine guns, each adventure brings challenges and insights to add to an ever-broadening awareness. Running a successful startup attracts ADWEEK Magazine of New York. She places first on their list of "The Dynamic Dozen." It should have been smooth sailing, but sharks were circling. A court battle followed.
 
It's an astonishing story of mystery, adventure and women breaking limits. Readers can gain skills. Her rollercoaster of life will make you laugh at humanity, provoke anger at infuriating situations and leave you inspired to reach goals. Stimulating questions are raised, generating a deeper introspection. The book is featured by Kirkus in "36 Great Indie Books Worth Discovering" for September 2023.

About the Author

Marilyn Howard broke through the glass ceiling at Grey Advertising of New York City before launching an innovative startup in 1970. Creative Freelancers. Inc. was the first agency to connect businesses with freelance artists and writers. It thrived for over 25 years in the center of Manhattan. ADWEEK Magazine of New York picked her for their feature, "The Dynamic Dozen,” those women under forty they identified as most likely to succeed. In 1997, her company became the first agency on the Internet. The author holds a B.F.A. from Syracuse University.
