Book 5 of 2025:
I wrapped up my weekend and the day by finishing my fifth book of 2025 and what an energizing read it has been! The book that caught my attention this time is by Maria Hatzistefanis, founder and CEO of the internationally acclaimed beauty brand Radial. From the moment I came across the title, I was intrigued. As someone who appreciates a blend of inspiration and strategy, this book did not disappoint.
What stood out most is how Maria weaves her personal journey into practical advice. She walks you through the behind-the-scenes reality of building a successful brand from the sacrifices that come with entrepreneurship to the importance of resilience, adaptability, and clarity of vision. Her experiences are honest, sometimes gritty, but always empowering.
While the focus is on business and entrepreneurship, many of the principles she shares are applicable beyond the business world. I found myself reflecting on how her insights connect with leadership, academic growth, and personal development. Topics like:
Time management, Building and leveraging partnerships, Curating your personal brand, Managing stress with intention, Showing up and looking the part and Staying digitally relevant all resonated deeply with me.
This is a book that radiates positive energy. It motivates you to think boldly, stay focused on your goals, and embrace your unique journey whatever path you're on.
Now onto the next read!
And to my fellow readers and book lovers; what’s on your bookshelf right now?
