<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Joan Barnes | Play It Forward - Story of Gymboree | Book Review by Lisa Woodruff CEO of Organize 365</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">On Mondays, I will be posting a podcast recording of previously recorded book reviews. These are books that have impacted me that I want to share with you.</span> <span style="font-weight: 400;">On the last Monday of every month, my book review will highlight a female founder or business owner. Most of these women started a company from their homes with less than $10,000. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In September, I reviewed a female founder story in the book</span> <a href= "https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1572841907?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creativeASIN=1572841907&linkCode=xm2&tag=warrmama-20"> <span style="font-weight: 400;">Play It Forward: From Gymboree to the Yoga Mat and Beyond</span></a> <span style= "font-weight: 400;">by Joan Barnes. When my kids were little, I loved the Gymboree brand, and I was super excited to dive into this book. This story was so interesting to me because she had some many different avenues for sales - service, clothing, franchises, and then an IPO. After Joan sold her company, she started a second company. She also included her personal struggles during the story, and I love hearing about the real life of real female founders. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">You can also watch this as a video review on</span> <a href= "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L2UzGAm5pPc"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">YouTube</span></a><span style= "font-weight: 400;">. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Follow me on</span> <a href= "https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/493903.Lisa_Woodruff"><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Goodreads</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">!</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">If you are interested in trying</span> <a href= "http://www.audibletrial.com/Organize365"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Audible</span></a> <span style= "font-weig
