Episode 37 Nice Doesn’t Mean Always Saying Yes with Fran Hauser
Fran Hauser, best-selling author of The Myth of the Nice Girl, discusses with us her new book Embrace the Work, Love Your Career.
Hear how, well before her superstar career in media rising through the ranks at Time Inc., she honed her business skills as a school-aged child of immigrant parents helping with the books for her father’s business. She also learned the advantages of being nice and why it is her superpower. Now an angel investor and entrepreneur, Fran works toward leveling the playing field for women.
In her latest book, Fran advocates having a “To Don’t” list and explains how cutting things out can make room for the things you want, like family and projects.
