More Than Ready: Be Strong and Be You . . . and Other Lessons for Women of Color on the Rise by Cecilia Muñoz
5.0
Ceclia Muñoz's book is a must-read for anyone in public service. I listened to this audiobook that was narrated by the author. A few of my key take-aways:
1. Mentor and nurture younger staff, always.
2. Support people of color and those with less privilege and power.
3. Celebrate the wins, even if they're not as great as we wanted. Progress is progress, even when it's small.
4. Learn how to recharge. Pursuing deep, meaningful societal change is hard work, so know when to take care of yourself and set boundaries. It's through moments of recharging that you can keep going year after year, challenge after challenge.
