Jacqueline Gold is the high-flying Chief Executive of Ann Summers, the hugely successful retail chain. Voted one of Britain's top ten most powerful women by "Cosmopolitan" magazine and the "Daily Mail", she is one of Britain's most successful business women. Many people have read profiles of Jacqueline Gold, but no one yet knows her full, incredible story. This is a gripping memoir of determination and suffering, of obstacles and inner-battles, which will inspire women across the country. Beginning with never-before-revealed secrets of her abusive childhood, moving on to her struggle to find love, gain career success and respect, as well as with IVF in order to have children, this is a no-holds-barred woman's story. Rousing and powerful, this book is for anyone who knows they are worth more a bit more, and wants the courage to reach out for it.
Jacqueline Gold, Chief Executive of Ann Summers and Knickerbox, is one of Britain's most successful businesswomen. She has been voted the second Most Powerful Woman in Retail Week, the Most Inspirational Businesswoman in the UK in a survey by Barclays Bank and handbag.com, one of Britain's 10 Most Powerful Women by both Cosmopolitan and Woman magazines, and Business Communicator of the Year 2004. At the age of 21, after joining Ann Summers as a wages clerk, Jacqueline saw the potential of selling sexy lingerie and sex toys to women in the privacy of their own homes. Working her way through the ranks she was made Chief Executive in 1987, and quickly transformed the company into a multi-million pound concern. Jacqueline has been the subject of several documentaries including Back To The Floor (BBC2, 2001), Ann Summers Uncovered (ITV1, 2003) and So What Do You Do All Day (BBC2, 2004); co-presented the daytime business series Mind Your Own Business (BBC1, 2005) and appeared on Fortune: Million Pound Giveaway (ITV1, 2007) and The Verdict (BBC1, 2007). She is a columnist for Retail Week, New Business and Kent Business.
