Being a young professional woman is not easy. If you’ve been reading LegalLee Blonde for a while, you likely know that in addition to fashion I am extremely passionate about seeing young women succeed in their chosen professions. As a young lawyer in a very male dominated field of law, I am all too aware of the many challenges associated with building your career as a young woman. So, today I wanted to share a non-fashion related post that I hope all you #girlbosses out there will enjoy. Below are 8 books that I think every young woman aspiring to have a career should read. These are books that will encourage you, make you laugh, and teach you. Each and every book addresses a different topic or brings a unique perspective that all young women should learn about. Happy reading!
