Channel 4 News presenter and bestselling author Cathy Newman gathers wisdom from some of the world's most acclaimed and influential women, creating a book that is part memoir, part masterclass in resilience. Honest, warm and quietly radical, it is a celebration of solidarity between women at every stage of the climb, and a timely antidote to the airbrushing of women's achievements from public life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Book\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nAcross these pages, Cathy Newman turns her interviewer's eye on the stories behind the headlines, drawing out the private doubts and hard-won insights of women who have reached extraordinary heights in their fields. Readers meet politicians including Nicola Sturgeon and Angela Rayner, scientists such as Dame Jocelyn Bell Burnell, activists like Rosamund Kissi-Debrah, film-makers including Waad Al-Kateab, religious leaders such as Rose Hudson-Wilkin, and broadcasters including Joan Bakewell. Rather than polished success stories, these are frank discussions of the snakes as well as the ladders: imposter syndrome, anger, illness, self-doubt, and the fear of being boring. The result is less a conventional biography than a shared toolkit, pooling lived experience from women who have navigated public pressure, personal setbacks and pivotal choices. Newman, known for her Channel 4 News interviews and bestselling history Bloody Brilliant Women, brings the same rigour and curiosity here. The book moves fluidly between politics, science, activism, faith and broadcasting, finding common threads of courage and self-knowledge. It is a book for anyone standing at the foot of their own ladder, wondering how to climb it - and survive the snakes along the way.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFeatures candid conversations with high-profile, widely recognised women\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWritten by award-winning journalist and bestselling author Cathy Newman\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTackles real issues: imposter syndrome, anger, illness, purpose and crisis\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand new Hardback - a durable, giftable UK edition\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIdeal gift for Mother's Day, birthdays or any milestone celebration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePraised as a Times Best Book of the Year\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nCathy Newman is one of Channel 4 News' main studio presenters and an award-winning investigative journalist, known for breaking major stories including allegations of sexual harassment in Westminster.
