Summary:
From Joy Mangano, inventor of the Miracle Mop and inspiration behind David O Russell's 2015 film Joy starring Jennifer Lawrence, comes a story of love and hope that will unlock the best and brightest version of you. Joy's story of becoming a celebrated female inventor is truly what dreams are made of - full of twists and turns, work and love, and obstacles encountered and overcomet. In 1992, aged 33, she was a single mother to three children. She invested her life savings (and $100,000 borrowed from friends and family) into a small business based around her invention, the Miracle Mop. That was the start of her inspirational rags-to-riches story. Joy points out the lessons that she learned the hard way, and principles she still relies on today. Thoughts and ideas that drive her business, life, and family and are the foundation for her success. These concepts form a blueprint to help you live your most joyful life. Look inside yourself, grab hold of your dreams, and be brave enough to take that very first step. You'll be in good company with Inventing Joy. Joy Mangano has created and sold nearly $3 billion of product over her storied career. Beginning in her father's auto body shop, she invented and launched the self-wringing Miracle Mop. Her later products include Huggable Hangers, My Little Steamer, Forever Fragrant, and luggage with her revolutionary Spinball Wheel System. Joy was one of the first in her field to harness the power of TV to connect and communicate with her customers using infomercials. She currently appears on the Home Shopping Network.
