Meh.

Life story was told from an arm’s length away. Not much real advice. Could’ve read her Wikipedia article instead.

This book was really unsatisfying; the first two thirds are a memoir, serving to illustrate the author's privileged upbringing in a well off, politically known, family.

The best anecdotes were the ones where Nancy Pelosi had to get down and dirty to get something done, like getting chased by police with billy clubs in China. And the overall best chapter is the eponymous one, which is honestly what I expected the rest of the book to be about.

Like many others who left reviews, I thought this would be more advice than autobiography. Still, it's a quick, easy read (almost too easy) and quite interesting.
