Your Time to Rise

This empowering book is for women at professional and personal crossroads who are ready to break free from expectations and make powerful change. Growing up as a first-generation Latina and navigating fast-paced law firm and corporate work environments, Arivee Vargas is well-versed in how heavily cultural and societal expectations can weigh on women of color trying to traverse life, work, and, for some, motherhood. Arivee wrote this book primarily for women of color who are ready to embark on the path of change, get honest with themselves, and decide how they want to live and work. Your Time to Rise is about increasing self-awareness, gaining clarity, uncovering your own truth, envisioning future possibilities, and aligning what's inside with what you're doing, saying, and pursuing on the outside. Arivee shows readers how to use her simple, four-part framework to navigate personal and professional inflection points. She also gives relatable examples of what women (and specifically, women of color) face at the intersection of work and their personal lives. Most importantly, Arivee provides actionable strategies and tools to help women break free from the often harmful and limiting beliefs and expectations they've internalized. Your Time to Rise will equip women with what they need to start or continue their journey to rise up to claim their truth and the joy and fulfillment they deserve, which is long overdue.
