In Unwilling: Refusing to Play a Game That Isn’t Mine, LinkedIn Top Career Development Voice and Global Career Strategist Ericka Spradley tells the truth many Black women feel but rarely live or say out loud: many of the rules you followed were never designed to reward you.
Through personal stories spanning childhood, relationships, and the workplace, Ericka reveals how "being a good girl" quietly conditions women to accept less-less pay, less power, less rest-while giving more than is ever returned. What begins as praise turns into pressure. What appears to be an opportunity can become exploitation. And what feels like loyalty slowly becomes self-betrayal.
This is not a book about fixing yourself.
It’s about recognizing the system-and choosing differently.
Part memoir, part wake-up call, Unwilling is for the woman who is accomplished yet exhausted, capable yet constrained, successful yet unfulfilled. It is an invitation to stop negotiating against yourself, stop confusing compliance with character, and stop playing a game that costs you more than it gives - in every area of your life.
Being unwilling isn’t rebellion.
It’s discernment.
And it may be the most powerful decision you ever make.
