"Raegan Moya-Jones is one of today's most fascinating entrepreneurs.

This book is the story of her entrepreneurial journey: how she stopped holding herself back and learned to go after her dreams. The John Burroughs quote "Leap, and the net will appear" has been Moya-Jones' guiding principle in business. But she wasn't always that bold.

When she finally got her act together, she went into sales, but quickly realized the corporate world wasn't for her. It was obvious that her (mostly male) bosses didn't like being challenged by an outspoken Aussie chick. So she decided to start a company, on her own terms. But instead of quitting her sales executive job at the Economist right away, she quietly built her business every night after putting her young daughters to bed. And when aden + anais reached $1 million in revenue in less than two years, she was finally ready to make the leap. Today her little company is a thriving global brand, and Raegan has moved on to make another entrepreneurial leap.
