RECOMMENDED READ

Recommended book Nice Girls Don't Get the Corner Office

Are you unknowingly sabotaging your own career? In Nice Girls Don’t Get the Corner Office, Lois Frankel exposes the subtle habits-like over-apologizing or softening your asks - that keep women from advancing. We break down her most practical tips, share a personal example of how swapping “sorry” for assertive language changed workplace dynamics overnight, and weigh the pros and cons, including why some readers feel the advice can be dated or place too much burden on women to change.

Our Foundation

The Ambition Atelier Mission

The Ambition Atelier is an independent media platform for women building wealth, autonomy, and long-term influence.

We not only highlight high-performance women and their works, we also publish thoughtfully researched content across business strategy, personal finance, travel, culture, and modern work. Our focus is practical clarity over noise, informed decision-making over trends, and substance over performance.

Every article is created to deliver real value: frameworks you can apply, context you can use, and insight grounded in lived experience and credible research.

We prioritize depth, transparency, and discernment, empowering readers to think critically rather than follow formulas.

Luxury is explored as a tool for better living, not a shorthand for status. Success is framed as sustainability, agency, and choice.

Readers come to The Ambition Atelier to understand how things work: how to build income intentionally, evaluate opportunities wisely, travel well, and design a life that feels considered rather than rushed.

This is a space for women who value intelligence, independence, and perspective.
