Get Real
30 Stories of Female Founders and Other Lessons in Business
Get Real is a business book for women filled with inspirational and honest stories of starting, scaling and failing in business. Entrepreneur Lisa Teh was inspired to write the book after realising her summer reading list had plenty of business books written for, and by, men, but very few by women. This fuelled her desire to inspire women to follow their start-up dreams, but to also give them practical advice via her own learnings from running and scaling successful businesses.
If you've ever wanted to start your own business, are currently doing a side hustle or are looking to take your business to the next level, this is the book for you. Get Real is full of valuable lessons from Lisa and 30 other amazing women – in fields ranging from fashion to tech and healthcare – on topics from how find your business idea, raising money, scaling, marketing your brand, backing yourself, how to build resilience (especially when the odds are stacked against you) and much more.
Women face unique challenges in business and as Lisa proudly declares: 'You can't be what you can't see.'

Publishing has a diversity problem. There are less 'diverse' books being published which limits the discoverability and reach of those authors.
Representation is important. Read more about why we exist here.
An anti-racist social enterprise bookstore specialising in BIPOC books.
Only about 11% of books published are by BIPOC authors — so unless you specifically seek out books by BIPOC authors, you aren't likely to find very many of them organically. At Amplify, BIPOC authors are highlighted and celebrated. Here, they don't have to fight to be seen, and you don't have to fight to find them.
We hope that in our shop, you can discover a new favourite read, find stories that speak uniquely to you, learn about a culture outside your own (or more about your own histories), and gain a better understanding of the systems that connect us all.
