• Never lie to your investors, even when you just got arrested.
• Raising money is a poker game—learn how to play.
• The power and money still lie with men. Pretending it’s not that way, or being angry about it, won’t lead to success.
• Your relationship with your co-founder is like a second marriage, so forget about keeping the personal out of the workplace.
• The more authentic you are, and the more fun you have, the better your experience will be.

It’s about sucking it up, making the hard choices, and dealing with the consequences. It’s about being honest no matter what is going down. Victoria’s been called "the anti-Elizabeth Holmes," for a good reason—unlike the ill-fated Theranos CEO, she’s transparent with her investors even when she fears they will walk away.
Digital Goddess is a story for entrepreneurial women at any stage of life who want to know what it actually takes to build a business in a world that’s not always fair, predictable, or politically correct
