Comfy Shoes and Keychains takes the most challenging aspects of leadership and not only honors struggle, but systematically lays out what stellar leadership looks like. I was inspired, equipped and motivated to elevate my own leadership along with those around me!

What a gift to women in leadership and those who aspire to lead! Carrie Hruby did a fantastic job of co-mingling key experiences and variables impacting females from both a practical and a theoretical prospective. The stories in this book are so very real and heartfelt. I felt a deep connection to women whose cultural backgrounds are different than mine. What bounds us together is a common struggle to prove ourselves as worthy and the resiliency that exists within us to overcome. I found the reading of her Comfy Shoes and Keychains to be quite therapeutic.

Throughout, the author offers valuable tips for resilience and success. Hruby coaches readers on ways to fight through each narrative and empowers women to write their own stories.
