Witty, massively knowledgeable, and straight talking. --Bustle
A practical and inspiring guide that'll leave you planning a whole new achievable future. Lady, we salute you. --Stylist
Rosen makes you think about work and what we want from it in a very different way - it is more practical and so the outcome will probably be a better fit for your personality, your skillset and what you actually want. --The Financial Times
This is a must-read book for millennials because the author's experiences are so relatable. It is a fascinating journey to read but, more than that, it really helps you to reflect on your own career and provides practical steps to do so. I would highly recommend! -- Amazon customer
An easy to read book with a focus on finding the right career for you. Would 100% recommend to anyone looking to re-visit their career goals and find happiness in 2019! -- Amazon customer
Such a fresh and inspiring take on discovering your path. What a gap year!!! What a book!!! A good read for anyone embarking on what lies ahead, and those that can help guide too. -- Amazon customer
As a millennial in a desk job this book gave me a fresh perspective on how I can choose to lead my working life and that I don’t have to follow what society tells me to do to be ‘successful’. This advice is packaged in beautiful storytelling which at times made me laugh and even cry. Ideally suited for millennials this booked will be appreciated by a range of ages. -- Amazon customer
Emma Rosen is an excellent case study for millennials who want it all but aren’t quite sure how to get there. Our 9-5 office jobs aren’t giving us what we need or want from a career. Rosen’s sabbatical is inspiring and interesting and just completely brilliant! -- Amazon customer
