Now they've written a book to equip and empower you to STEAM-powered success. Read it. Heed it. It could change your life!"-- John R. Hall, PE, F.NSPE, Past-President of the Florida Engineering Society, Framer of Florida's STEM Strategic Plan and President of Ludovici & Orange Consulting Engineers "This is a guide for our girls to succeed on every level: personally, socially, educationally, professionally and even romantically. The authors detail a system of problem solving that works. I wish I had read this back in the day. Now, I'll make sure that all of the young ladies in my life get a copy. Thanks, Lizzy and Nola!"-- Susan M. Klock, Attorney, mother and grandmother "This book is timely and long overdue. The importance of women being treated equally in all fields, especially in technology and education, is at the forefront of society today. The glass ceiling remains a reality. This book uniquely reaches the hearts and minds of our future female leaders in a way that resonates with the challenges they face today and in the future. The advice and the tools are both informative and empowering to young women and will aid them in their career growth."-- M. Lewis Temares, PhD, Dean Emeritus, College of Engineering, University of Miami, IEEE Life Senior Member, and IT and Leadership Consultant, Lew and Lou Consulting LLC "This book is a great resource to encourage, equip and empower young girls interested in STEAM education and careers. It is full of real-world stories and practical advice from women who have been there. Highly recommended."-- Greg Munson, Founder and President, BattleBots "STEAM is such an important collaboration of influences in our lives today. Nola and Lizzy have found a way to integrate effective tools for a successful journey through the difficult teen years and beyond. Even girls who are not interested in STEAM careers can benefit from the tech savvy advice in these pages."-- Fon Davis, Founder of Fonco Studios, worked on over 40 feature films, ran the Los Angeles Hanson Robotics Lab and Robogames and Battlebots judge From the Author ★★★ Why We Wrote This Book ★★★ Nola was inspired to write this book because she saw a need in the hundreds of young girls she worked with over the years.

Lizzy was excited to write this book because she wanted to pass on lessons that took her so long to learn, lessons she wishes she knew when she was younger and was just discovering her love of STEAM. Nola and Lizzy knew that girls and teens could
