Dana Perino: 'Everything Will Be Okay' -- what I want to share with today's young women

{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}I wrote my new book "Everything Will Be Okay -- Life Lessons for Young Women (from a Former Young Woman) (Twelve, March 9, 2021)" to provide an updated how-to guide for young women seeking career and personal advice.
So many of the young women I talk with today are brimming with ambition and ideas but they are racked with anxiety. I believe their worries are holding them back from professional opportunities and robbing them of fully experiencing life’s joys. I wanted to help fix that.
To that end, I’ve written a very practical guide on what young women can do to turn their worries into fuel that can be channeled to help them reach their goals.

Clearing our minds of worries, especially the ones over which we have no control, is the goal. Then we can lift our gaze to see that there’s less to worry about and more to live for. And in so doing, we’ll realize everything really WILL be OK.
