My Story

An excellent lesson in entrepreneurship with an overwhelmingly emotional personal story of perseverance, courage, friendship. Overcoming cancer is an illustration of the strength of the human spirit that has guided Jo through her business development and mishaps.

A beautifully balanced, humble account of how Jo Malone made it to where she is now and the incredible obstacles that both 'made her' and that she had to overcome in order to arrive at where she is today. I absolutely loved this book, from its at time heartbreaking accounts of struggle in her childhood, whose response was always to take on more responsibility, to help at home whether it was making face creams in the kitchen to help her mother, tidying the house, selling paintings at the market with her Dad, to coping with an undiagnosed dyslexia and the uttered words of a teacher who predicted she would come to nothing.

Really enjoyed this read. Jo is a true inspiration and it was fascinating to read her story, from Relatively humble beginnings to The ups and downs of being a super successful entrepreneur.
