we’re speaking: the life lessons of kamala harris: how to use your voice, be assertive, and own your story

＂A must-read＂ (Eve Rodsky​), We’re Speaking provides inspirational lessons about life, work, and overcoming adversity--drawn from Kamala Harris’s norm-shattering ascent to Vice President of the United States.​

Kamala Harris is one of our country’s most awe-inspiring political figures, dawning on a new age as the first--but not last--Black and Asian-American female Vice President. Having spent her entire career smashing glass ceilings and influencing the next generation of young women, Harris has completely redefined what it means to be a woman in politics.

In We’re Speaking, Palepu connects illuminating stories from Harris’s unique biography with tactical advice that will teach you to:

• Own the power of your multitudes
• Act on and embrace your ambition
• Develop your unique voice and style
• Find your North Star to guide your decisions

Best of all, We’re Speaking will leave you feeling empowered to follow in Harris’s footsteps -- shattering glass ceilings of your own as you live the life of your dreams!
