Femme Led (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798892940597)

Leadership has long been defined by systems that reward dominance, extraction, certainty, and visibility at all costs. Femme Led challenges that narrative.

These are founders, creatives, entrepreneurs, educators, healers, and changemakers who have turned ideas into impact and values into action, often without permission and rarely by following the script.
