The first time he called her a vulgar name, she felt hurt.
The first time he spit in her face, she felt ashamed.
The first time he smashed her head against the wall, she felt nothing.
The first time she believed in herself, she found success.

Michelle Cully thought she'd never amount to anything without her boyfriend. After their abusive relationship ended, she was distraught, sleeping on her sister's couch and refusing to eat . . . until a crazy idea popped into her head.

With just a high school diploma, zero business experience and very little money, she started a courier company in her parents' laundry room. Dressed in a suit and heels, she spent her days delivering packages all over Boston, or cold-calling as the laundry tumbled beside her. While she was building her business, she was also rebuilding herself.

Today, Michelle is a successful entrepreneur and powerful female CEO in a male-dominated industry. The small company she built is now Xpressman Trucking & Courier, a multi-million-dollar venture with operations from coast to coast.

High Heels in the Laundry Room is a raw look at how what nearly breaks us can make us stronger. Michelle's courageous journey will make you laugh, cry, and reflect, and is a must-read for anyone with a wild dream who dares to hope a better life is possible.
