“The First Decade: My Journey from Blogger to Entrepreneur” is a book by Vivy Yusof, who is a Malaysian fashion entrepreneur and influencer, and who started her journey from blogging to owning a multimillion fashion brand — dUCk.
She was also named as one of “Forbes 30 Under 30”, and selected as a Young Global Leader by World Economic Forum.
A well-known influencer, with over a million followers on her social media account, she often posts about family and friends, especially her four children, motherhood and fashion and some random funny things in life.
Overall, it is a well-written book; easy and fun to read; proving that women can raise a family, chase their dreams and become successful entrepreneurs.
A bit more lifestyle-focused and nothing too serious. But it does offer some advice, encouragement for young women, entrepreneurs as well — as she wrote about founding Fashion Valet, winning MyEG’s Make the Pitch, starring in a reality TV show, and growing in-house brands.
She also shares some low point moments of her life, including cyberbullying, internet conflicts in her company, among others.
