Sanna Marin is an extraordinary woman with the courage, strength and leadership to inspire. This memoir is a testament to the power of truth and authenticity, and will empower women all over the world – Diane von Furstenberg
Globally, Sanna Marin has been celebrated for becoming Prime Minister so young. However, she is not a political novice, and she proved that good leadership does not depend on age * Time100 Next *
[Marin] changed the image of who a politician can be… in refusing to be anything other than exactly who she is, while continuing to do her job with aplomb, Marin proved to the world, and all of its women, that there’s room for them in the political arena, too * Elle *
There’s a word the Finnish use to describe their national character: sisu. It refers to a sense of stoicism, of determination. Sisu is hardiness, resilience and a can-do attitude.
