Muñoz, former White House adviser and senior staff member, offers encouragement for women of color who have been called into higher positions of influence in their workplaces or communities. Having experienced discrimination as a Latina in U.S. politics, Muñoz provides reassurance and guidance for any woman who has also found themselves the first or only woman of color at the table. Muñoz recounts successes and support from her ascent through nonprofit and government work but also setbacks and bias (deliberate or not) encountered by herself and other colleagues. The result is a toolkit of thoughtful, tested advice from which readers can draw inspiration. Muñoz relays advice from her peers and also personal heroes, including Michelle Obama and Deesha Dyer, and how they overcame challenges during Obama's administration. Unfortunately, the adversity women experience isn't always external, so Muñoz additionally provides strategies for overcoming fear and self-doubt. VERDICT Women in all phases of life should find encouragement from Muñoz's experiences and career-centered advice.--Jennifer Clifton, Indiana State Lib., Indianapolis
