"This idea of pushing past doubts - whether those doubts are planted by society or oneself - is the foundation of this book, which promises to encourage women to see beyond their perceived limitations. Be it physical, mental, or societal obstacles, the women in Tell Her She Can't are a MUCH needed reminder to all of us that we are both our greatest enemies and - if we silence the doubts - our biggest champions. Tell Her She Can't is a defiant invitation to see women who are told they can't do something, then go on and do it."
