Enclosed in this book are inspirational stories of women who smash myths around women in the workplace. The author approaches from an anthropological viewpoint and I think that is a new take on the subject. The narrator has a positive and professional demeanor.

Thanks Netgalley for an advanced copy of this book. All opinions are my own.

Rethink is about women who broke into men dominated careers. Andi Simon is a Ph.D. in Anthropology and uses it in this book to observe how the women used everyday skills to become successful. The skills that stuck with me are recognizing opportunity and not feel so humble to not tell of your accomplishments. I didn't know that the fashion industry was so dominated by men before the 1970s. Maybe because I always see more women than men designer in today's fashion world.
Overall, this book was informative in many ways. Much of it was not new information to me. This would be a great book for people who are just learning about the discrimination against women in the workforce. Also for people looking for encouragement to be a female glass breaker or to support women to do so.

Thank you to NetGalley & Greenleaf Audiobooks for the ARC in exchange for an honest review.
