Veteran journalist and Wall Street Journal bestselling author BROOKE BALDWIN shares indelible insights from her debut book, Huddle: How Women Unlock Their Collective Power.

Brooke Baldwin’s ‘Huddle’ breaks glass ceilings

Author and beloved TV personality BROOKE BALDWIN explores the mutual empowerment of women in her Wall Street Journal bestseller Huddle: How Women Unlock Their Collective Power. Through a mix of journalism and personal narrative, Baldwin embeds herself in groups of women, or “huddles,” of all ages, races, religions, and socio-economic backgrounds banding together in America. Along the way, Baldwin takes readers through her own journey growing up in the South and climbing the ladder of a male-dominated industry. With her signature brightness, Baldwin uncovers how huddling can be the “secret sauce” that makes many things possible for women: success in the workplace, effective grassroots change, confidence in girlhood, and a better physical and mental health profile in adulthood.
