In the spirit of motivating others, author and motivational speaker Monica R. Sholar brought together a remarkable group of Michigan women to share stories on issues relevant to women and girls of all backgrounds. Many success stories show only the end result when the lessons have already been learned and the awards have already been won. But what was life like before getting to that great place? What did the process of construction look like? Please Pardon My Dust: I'm Under Construction pulls back the curtain and reveals a realistic view of the road to success, while reminding us, through the experiences of Michigan women, the power we all possess to reach our goals. The stories are simple, yet powerful and thought-provoking to engage pre-teen through mature adult readers. If you are looking for relatable, uplifting, and inspiring stories for motivation, let this must-have be your guide.*10% of book proceeds will be donated to Michigan Women's Foundation programs for aspiring entrepreneurs and young women leaders.*
