the rebellious leader®
A business book for women done playing by the rules.
A straight talking business book about building success without burnout, pressure, or losing yourself in the process.
Your antidote to hustle culture..
You followed the advice.
Post more.
Work harder.
Be more visible.
Launch again.
Fix your mindset.
Wake up earlier.
And yet somehow your business still seems to need you for absolutely everything.
The Rebellious Leader is the book I wish someone had handed me years ago.
It’s a straight talking look at what actually creates sustainable growth, why so many women end up trapped in businesses they’ve outgrown, and how to build success without losing yourself in the process.
No hustle.
No guru nonsense.
No pretending a colour coded planner will solve structural problems.
Just honest stories, practical strategy, and a different way of leading.
What readers are saying
“The book every budding entrepreneur needs up their sleeve. Witty, honest, and refreshing. It feels like advice from the friend who’ll tell you the hard thing kindly, hand you a strategy, and make you laugh at the same time.”
Harriet Inglis Founder Spacemasks
“You barely clock you’re being taught something. You’re just nodding, laughing and quietly having your thinking dismantled in the best possible way.”
Rebecca Haydon NLP trainer and founder of The Subconscious Institute
“It reads like you’re sat across from Mills with a glass of wine getting the most honest, spicy business advice you never knew you needed.”

“
She has woven her own story and those of her clients so seamlessly into real, valuable reframes that you barely clock you’re being taught something. You’re just nodding, laughing and quietly having your thinking dismantled in the best possible way. Chapters that should feel like business advice somehow feel like a breakthrough, the kind where you leave with actual answers and wonder why no one said this sooner.
