Books by Qwin Roose

A growing body of work across professional development, fiction, and non-fiction — each rooted in the same conviction: clarity is power.

I Am A Lady, Be A Man

There is a book that sold millions of copies telling women to think like men. This is the answer to that book — not a gentle one. Written from two failed marriages, an airport with two dollars in her pocket, and the long road back to herself, Qwin Roose delivers the truth that playbook left out.

Part One is the mirror. Part Two is the playbook. Together, they are a reckoning — for the woman who followed every rule and still lost, and for the man ready to be honest about which one he really is.

Future Casting Submission

I Am a Lady, Be a Man

Stage play · Adapted from the book · Open casting call

The book brought to the stage — the arguments, the silences, the moment a woman stops explaining herself. It is funny where it needs to be and unflinching everywhere else, and it asks its cast to be honest in front of a room full of strangers.

Beyond The Page

A Woman’s Place Foundation

The work in these pages doesn’t end at the last chapter. A Woman’s Place Foundation is the 501(c)(3) that puts real resources in the hands of women rebuilding — and it runs on donations.

“Where every woman has a seat at the table she deserves.”

A Woman’s Place Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit dedicated to empowering women and female-identifying individuals with the tools, resources, and community they deserve — built on the conviction that every woman has the power to thrive, whatever she started with.

Encouragement alone doesn’t cover a deposit, a résumé, or a safety plan. So the foundation runs eight programs that do, with navigators who stay with a person until the right door opens. Donations are what keep those eight doors staffed and open.
