Run Like A Girl

An inspiring feminist memoir.

From Olympic dreams to the frontlines of politics and climate action, Run Like a Girl is a bold, unfiltered memoir from Catherine McKenna, Canada's former Minister of Environment and Climate Change. Known for leading the charge on Canada's carbon pricing plan and enduring sexist attacks as "Climate Barbie," McKenna shares an inspiring journey of reinvention, resilience, and defiance in the face of expectations.

With a unique scrapbook-style format, this book blends personal anecdotes, political battles, and reflections on balancing ambition, motherhood, and activism. McKenna recounts her fight for climate policy, the ups and downs of her public service, the tough decision to leave politics, and her new mission to empower women in leadership.

For fans of Becoming by Michelle Obama and No Logo by Naomi Klein, Run Like a Girl is an urgent, deeply personal story about finding your own path, breaking the rules, and fighting for the future—on your own terms.
