Summary
Details

Ever feel like your life is one chaotic, caffeine-fueled rollercoaster where you forgot the seatbelt but remembered the glitter? Same. Welcome to The Diary of Mrs. Jolly Good-a raw, unfiltered, and laugh-out-loud journey through the glorious dumpster fire that is my entrepreneurial life.

This isn't your average memoir. It's a journal-stuffed explosion of emotional venting, hilariously inappropriate oversharing, and entrepreneurial f
*ck-ups with a side of sparkle. I've built businesses from scratch, tanked a few spectacularly, wrangled pugs mid-panic attack, delivered Uber Eats while closing patent deals, and survived everything from trademark theft to droopy-eye surgery plans (don't ask, just read).

Inside, you'll meet dodgy investors, fraudulent ex-employees, and my dead-but-still-judgy Shih Tzu, Ronaldo. You'll come across broken flower fridges, backroom boardroom brawls, and courtroom chaos. But mostly, you'll find a story about relentless resilience, delusional optimism, and refusing to quit-no matter how many people hope you will.

If you've ever wanted to scream ""WTF is happening?!"" into a pillow while building your dream life, this book's for you. It's messy. It's real. And it's Jolly Good.

Warning: Contains swearing, sarcasm, brutally honest reflections, and tons of 'aha!' moments.
