unWorthy
by Jane Boulware
Sarah's take
I recommend *unWorthy* because Jane Boulware's journey from small-town Iowa to Microsoft's corner office is both hilarious and deeply moving. Her unflinching honesty about imposter syndrome and self-doubt stayed with me—this book is for anyone who has ever felt like they don't belong at the table. It changed my perspective on what it means to earn your place.

With raw honesty and unexpected humor, she exposes the universal struggle between ambition and self-doubt, revealing how success often amplifies rather than silences our deepest insecurities about worthiness.
