About the book:

"In this book, Nicole reveals her incredible journey and how she got where she is today." -Gabrielle Union (from the foreword)

Agent You shares Nicole’s key strategies for creating a plan and executing it, even in the face of self-doubt and external obstacles. Each chapter includes exercises to help you implement the strategies presented, so you can start working toward your goals today. After reading Agent You, you’ll learn how to:

  • Discover and stay focused on your purpose.
  • Develop your personal brand and advocate for yourself.
  • Prepare for big opportunities.
  • Land your dream job.
  • Manage your workload and still prioritize self-care.

“Imagine if you had an agent for your own life…someone guiding you to determine what your purpose is, someone advocating for you in rooms you have not even stepped into, someone that was pushing you to your greatest potential…now, imagine that that agent is you,” says Lynn. “I believe that everyone can own their success story, no matter life’s challenges,” adds Lynn. “And, I believe that you are your best agent.”

Thriving in a male-dominated profession, Lynn tells about her extraordinary successes that were earned through a combination of hard work, preparation, self-advocacy, tenacity, and faith.

About the Author:

In 2019, Nicole Lynn became the first Black woman to represent a Top 3 NFL draft pick (and only the second woman in history to solo represent a NFL first rounder). The following year, Lynn again made history, representing back-to-back Top 10 NFL draft picks. Beyond the realm of sports, she represents multiple clients in the entertainment industry; ranging from broadcasters and a music artist. A TV show inspired by her life will be produced and released by 50 Cent and STARZ. Most recently, Lynn joined Klutch Sports Group as senior agent and president of football operations.

In 2020, she was named to Sports Illustrated’s ‘The Unrelenting’ list, honored as one of the most powerful, most influential and most outstanding women in sports. Glamour magazine featured Lynn in their ‘Women of the Year’ series (2019), and most recently, NBC profiled her amongst a number of extraordinary people that are making a positive impact in their communities in their primetime special, “Inspiring America: The 2021 Inspiration List.”
