Small
town, BIG story. Roberts’s narration of her own story
is detailed, thought provoking, and informative. Cheekys is
a brand built out of determination and desperation, planning
and preservation. It is a contradiction in failure and success.
Roberts should be awarded a medal for endurance, because when
you finish this book you will feel like you have run a marathon
right alongside her.
Great
story, great narration. If you know the brand, Cheekys, you
will appreciate the story behind it. Moreover, a purchase
of the product will be a vote of confidence for Roberts. If
you live in a small town or run a boutique business or both,
this is a must read. The hardships that this woman battled
and still pushed ahead to become a millionaire are overwhelming.
Listeners should take notes.
She
lost her twin boys in a custody battle, she and her line were
labeled “cheap”, and her son was bullied in school.
These may seem like common situations, but add to that a young
history of incomprehensible abuse that would stop anyone in
their tracks. Roberts went on to create a successful marriage
and business out of the wreckage.
I
am impressed, if you can tell, and I think you will be too.
Listen to this on the drive to your own entrepreneurial pursuits,
and you are guaranteed to be able to overcome anything. I
give this one an A+.
