Young Female Entrepreneurs The first ever Young Female Entrepreneurs book club started last week! We are reading Melody Biringer’s Craving Success. Find out more about the Club and Melody’s book here: http://books.yfe.me. This is week four of four and you are just in time to wrap up the conversation with us and meet other young women. Another set of discussion questions are below (check out week three set 1 and set 2), prepared by moderator Morgan. You still have time to buy the book (ebook) and jump in.

Melody talks a lot about the success and failures of her businesses.

Join the private YFE Book Club Facebook Group to discuss the following questions with other entrepreneurial women in their 20s and 30s.
