Westerville, OH – Rohrer of the College Inn is profiled in the new book, Birthing the Elephant: The Woman’s Go-For-It! Guide to Overcoming the Big Challenges of Launching a Business (Ten Speed Press) by Karin Abarbanel and Bruce Freeman.

Part portable success coach, part step-by-step guide through the life cycle of a small-business start-up, Birthing the Elephant is the “What to Expect When You’re Expecting”

for aspiring women entrepreneurs. It offers them a practical road map to the rocky emotional terrain they’ll face during the make-or-break first 22 months of their venture.

Rohrer was chosen for her inspiring entrepreneurial leap. According to the authors, “Becky’s success story is a great example of what it takes to be an entrepreneur: passion, persistence, ingenuity, and optimism. Beyond this, Becky survived a tough personal crisis as a single mom, overcame her fears, and courageously reinvented herself.”

Birthing the Elephant offers frontline start-up advice and lively anecdotes from Rohrer and other innovative entrepreneurs, including Bobbi Brown, founder of Bobbi Brown Cosmetics, and Liz Lange, founder and president of Liz Lange Maternity. Says Becky:

“Everyone needs a success coach to cheer them on and whisper encouraging advice in their ear when the going gets tough. Karin and Bruce helped me realize my dream.”
