About this listen
What will it take to follow your dream?
On the outside, Rebekah Campbell has an enviable life. She is founder of hot Sydney startup Posse.com, writes a popular blog and gives inspirational talks at conferences for female entrepreneurs.
But when she turns off the light each night, she is alone and terrified of the future. She knows that what's important to her isn't money or startup glory or social media followers. She wants love. She wants a family. And she is stuck. She hasn't been on a date in ten years. She's too embarrassed to list herself on the internet and can't bear the risk of getting rejected.
She decides to act. She'll take the tactics she's learnt building companies and apply them to finding a man. Her epic journey will take her on dates with 138 different men in Sydney, New York and San Francisco, while at the same time confronting the immense challenges of launching a business.

A wonderful story, albeit rather long
Rebekah is a talented story teller, and excellent narrator. The book is rather long and ending obvious of course, but I learnt some new things and found myself always listening in spare time.
Her honest, vulnerable account of this period of her life is heart warming, humours and inspiring.

Interesting
Ten points for persistence. Well told. Bit slow at the start but managed to keep me there too the end.

The best part is the epilogue
Everyone who is dating loves to hear the dating disasters of others. But Rebekah seemed to have many great dates which didn't become second dates. I would be asking myself why, and it isn't because she didn't touch their arms or flirt. I think perhaps men guessed that she was rather busy with her business and went on to find someone with more leisure time.
Her voice isn't great, but this is her own story, so she should be the one telling it.
Six weeks of dating before sex is allowed? Who does that!
I didn't understand much of the business talk, it was interesting to know that it was all real though.
If this was just a novel, I wouldn't believe that she knew she had met 'the one' on their first date. Seemed a bit high school, but it was really true! I would advise anyone else not to wait for that fantasy feeling, but stick with someone who seems quite nice and fun to be with and that feeling can still happen as you get to know each other. Give it six months at least.
The Epilogue was the best part - full of sage advice and new ideas for me, age 70. Particularly - don't be afraid of therapy to help you figure yourself out!

Dating in late 30s
This is a really great book! It's about modern dating and start-ups from a female perspective. It's really nice that the author reads her own book as her tone and speech are great to hear from her own voice.
I learnt so much from this book and so many takeaways. Highly recommended.
