If You Have To Cry Go Outside . . . And Other Things Your Mother Never Told You

This next book speaks from one of New York's head of PR and reality TV from both Bravo and MTV, Kelly Cutrone. From her start in Syracuse to NY to the world, she boldly and ballsy tells you her story and what it took for her to get where is.

The End Result:

I Absolutely LOVED This Book!

This book and the lessons Kelly delivers are just that - Things Your Mother Never Taught You!

One thing I did find kind of comforting to know was that even powerhouses, such as Kelly Cutrone; had mental self-doubt about their life and situations. At times when it feels like all the fears are gone, in the back mentally it's all still there!

She GENUINELY goes in with a balls-to-the-wall attitude. For example, she was COMPLETE and FULL prepared to be a mother. "If I'm meant to do this on my own, that's Fine, so be it!"

While at times she may be perceived as a huge bitch, she does WHAT SHE CAN to help you, like  any mom would, minus holding your hand throughout the business.

She empowers women to break the mold and DO IT TRUE!! Do NOT follow stereotypes (starting w/ Disney and leading to Sex-And-The-City). If that's what you're into fine, but DON'T DO IT just because "you should!"

In The End:

I LOVED THIS BOOK! And The Messages Expressed and Passed On Throughout It's Entirety!!

P.S.

After reading this book,

One thing that makes me feel like SHIT is seeing little girls be thrown LITERALLY into stereotypes of Princesses and Fairy tales that may or may not be suited FOR THEM!!

Here's a question for you:

If you're a mother w/ children, is it common or normal to act as one outside of just YOUR children?

Ex. - The kids in the neighborhood, you become the town mom?  OR   If you're a boss, looking out for or helping employees outside of the job?

The "mom" switch NEVER turns off?

Is that normal or common?
