Push to Purpose: 50 Lessons and Insights From the Paths of the World's Best Female Innovators, Entrepreneurs and Changemakers

Push to Purpose tells the story of how Esra Ozturk redesigned her life and its priorities after just missing a terrorist attack in Istanbul by 10 minutes. In an effort to move past the numbness, she wrote a list of all the things in her life that still made her feel alive. She grouped them into 3 categories:

1) Push
2) Power
3) People

When she had these things, she had her “purpose.” Push to Purpose is a love letter to other young girls struggling to find their place in the world. Ozturk hopes that in teaching about the process she employed in her times of uncertainty, they too can bring balance and meaning to their lives. Push to Purpose is a book about navigating the unknown and unforeseen circumstances of life, and applying a simple 3-step method to following your path as a creator. In doing so, her aim is to empower and lead the way for the next generation of female entrepreneurs.
