Masoom Minawala-She'll Never Make It- Book review

“One of the most powerful things you can do is show up authentically, unapologetically, as yourself.” — Masoom Minawala

She'll Never Make It: My Journey from Doubt to Dominance by Masoom Minawala with Aditi Shah Bhimjyani

"She'll Never Make It" is a narrative that chronicles the journey of Masoom Minawala, one of India’s pioneering influencer-creators. Co-authored with Aditi Shah Bhimjyani, this book is a raw, unfiltered account of Masoom's ascent from doubt to dominance in a world that often undermines ambitious women.



The debut book opens with a familiar sentiment to many young women: "She'll never make it." These words, often spoken with derision, serve as a catalyst for Masoom's relentless drive. Facing skepticism, Masoom's story is a testament to determination. From her early struggles to her eventual success, Masoom shares insights into the world of digital entrepreneurship. The narrative is brutally honest, revealing the highs and lows of her journey, and offers practical advice on building a new-age business, effective networking, and maintaining a work-life balance.

Masoom's journey is not just a story of one woman's success; it's a guide for any Indian woman aiming to break the mold and prove her naysayers wrong. It also underscores the presence of the right people in your life at the right time.

Through her own experiences Masoom also puts out a spotlight on the other side of the influencer lifestyle. It is not always all glory like many people think. It's tough work and the trolls and the cancel culture does not make it easy. 


A Closer Look

Masoom's story is not just about achieving fame but about the grit and tenacity required to get there. The book delves into the realities of being a female entrepreneur in a competitive digital landscape. Masoom's candidness about her failures and setbacks makes the book relatable and inspiring. She shares her secrets on leveraging social media, building a personal brand, and the importance of authenticity.

 Should you Read It

"She'll Never Make It" is more than a memoir; it’s a manual for success in the modern world.

Spill the Tea: Noor and the Silence After Doing Everything right

Noor has done everything she was supposed to do — moved out, built a life, stayed independent. Yet beneath the neat routines and functional success lies a quiet emptiness she cannot name. Part of the Spill the Tea series, this story explores high-functioning loneliness, emotional flatness, and the unsettling fear of living a life that looks complete from the outside. The verandah was brighter than Noor expected. Morning light lay flat across the tiles, showing every faint scuff mark, every water stain from old monsoons. The air smelled of detergent from a neighbour’s washed curtains flapping overhead. On the table, the paneer patties waited in a cardboard bakery box I’d emptied onto a plate. A squeeze bottle of ketchup stood beside it, slightly sticky around the cap. Two cups of tea, steam already thinning. In one corner, a bamboo palm stood in a large terracotta planter. Thin stems. Too many leaves. Trying very hard to look like it belonged indoors. Noor sat down and pulled the chair ...

Why do we crave bookshops when life falls apart? A deep reading of Welcome to the Hyunam-dong Bookshop

This article reflects on Welcome to the Hyunam-dong Bookshop by Hwang Bo-reum, a gentle novel about burnout, healing, and second chances. Through Yeong-ju and her quiet community, the book reminds you that meaning often returns slowly, through books, people, and ordinary days that begin to feel like home again. Why do so many of us secretly dream of walking away from everything? At some point, usually on a crowded weekday morning or during yet another meeting that could have been an email, you wonder if this is all there is. You did what you were told. You studied, worked hard, built a career, stayed responsible. And yet, instead of contentment, there is exhaustion. Welcome to the Hyunam-dong Bookshop begins exactly at this uncomfortable truth. Hwang Bo-reum’s novel does not shout its intentions. It does not promise transformation through grand revelations. Instead, it sits beside you quietly and asks a gentler question. What if the problem is not that you failed, but that you nev...
