When Kristi Hemmer was eight, she was the Connect Four champ; nobody wanted to play with her. When she was twelve, she was on the Future Problem Solvers of America championship team; people told her that if she was too smart, boys wouldn't like her. When she was eighteen, her professor told her she was too smart to be a teacher. When she was thirty-three and principal of an all-girls school, a city council member told her she was too young. The underlying message is one that every female of every age is told again and again: You're too much. Quit being you. You don't belong. Wait your turn. Be quiet. Quit being so good.
Quit Being So Good is a collection of fifteen stories from the frontlines of being female. It is a call to action for women to unapologetically be their most powerful selves for the sake of building a safer, more equitable world. The key to being unapologetic (maybe even dismantling the patriarchy itself) is in these three simple steps: 1). take up space, 2). be first, and 3). look for the helpers.
Reading this book will inspire women to be self-assured, to be their "possible," and to take up the space they need to be more of themselves-not less. And in the process, women will indeed change the world. As Malala says, "You will never know who stands with you if you don't stand up first."
