It’s been said that well-behaved women rarely make history. But, it can also be challenging for women to shake the stereotype that being assertive makes them difficult.

Award-winning author Karen Karbo celebrates women who may be seen as difficult but are in fact spirited rule breakers who charted their way with little regard for social or cultural expectations.

Karen’s book, In Praise of Difficult Women, can serve as an inspiration for all of us who seek to live an authentic life on our own terms.
