Masoom Minawala-She'll Never Make It- Book review

“One of the most powerful things you can do is show up authentically, unapologetically, as yourself.” — Masoom Minawala

She'll Never Make It: My Journey from Doubt to Dominance by Masoom Minawala with Aditi Shah Bhimjyani

"She'll Never Make It" is a narrative that chronicles the journey of Masoom Minawala, one of India’s pioneering influencer-creators. Co-authored with Aditi Shah Bhimjyani, this book is a raw, unfiltered account of Masoom's ascent from doubt to dominance in a world that often undermines ambitious women.



The debut book opens with a familiar sentiment to many young women: "She'll never make it." These words, often spoken with derision, serve as a catalyst for Masoom's relentless drive. Facing skepticism, Masoom's story is a testament to determination. From her early struggles to her eventual success, Masoom shares insights into the world of digital entrepreneurship. The narrative is brutally honest, revealing the highs and lows of her journey, and offers practical advice on building a new-age business, effective networking, and maintaining a work-life balance.

Masoom's journey is not just a story of one woman's success; it's a guide for any Indian woman aiming to break the mold and prove her naysayers wrong. It also underscores the presence of the right people in your life at the right time.

Through her own experiences Masoom also puts out a spotlight on the other side of the influencer lifestyle. It is not always all glory like many people think. It's tough work and the trolls and the cancel culture does not make it easy. 


A Closer Look

Masoom's story is not just about achieving fame but about the grit and tenacity required to get there. The book delves into the realities of being a female entrepreneur in a competitive digital landscape. Masoom's candidness about her failures and setbacks makes the book relatable and inspiring. She shares her secrets on leveraging social media, building a personal brand, and the importance of authenticity.

Cutting people off isn’t strength—It is a trauma response

Your ability to cut people off and self-isolate is not a skill you should be proud of—It is a trauma response Cutting people off and self-isolating may feel like a protective shield, but it is often rooted in unresolved or unhealed trauma and an inability to depend on others. While these behaviors seem like self-preservation, they end up reinforcing isolation and blocking meaningful connections. Confronting these patterns, seeking therapy, and nurturing supportive relationships can help break this unhealthy cycle. Plus, a simple act like planting a jasmine plant can symbolise the start of your journey towards emotional healing. Why do we cut people off and isolate? If you’re someone who prides themselves on “cutting people off” or keeping a tight circle, you might believe it’s a skill—a way to protect yourself from betrayal, hurt, or unnecessary drama. I get it. I’ve been there, too. But here’s the thing: this ability to isolate yourself is not as empowering as it may seem. In fact, i...

The Bhagavad Gita, Chap 9, Ver 32, 33 So women are of sinful birth! As well as all kinds of workers, business men, entrepreneurs, most of the general population. The only people of virtuous births are priests — Brahmins — and royal saints, meaning saintly royals, meaning noble Kshatriyas. No wonder then that Yudhishthira — to reinstate whom this whole Mahabharata war has been fought — maintained hundreds of thousands of slave women! Take that number again: hundreds of thousands! He had so much gold, he could afford to. He had so much virtue, but he wanted more! Let's find the facts and figures from Draupadi's own wo...
