(in Biography & Memoir)
From the daughter of a domestic worker to a respected HR executive, certified leadership coach, and mentor to women of colour across Canada, this is Aileen Edwards’ story—raw, real, and unapologetically bold.
In this powerful memoir, Aileen pulls back the curtain on her journey through racism, sexism, and systemic barriers to becoming a purpose-driven leader in corporate spaces that were never built for her. But this isn’t just her story—it’s a guide, a call, and a torch passed to every woman who’s ever been underestimated and rose anyway.
Whether you're a young Black woman just starting your career, a leader navigating invisible ceilings, or someone longing for stories that mirror your own truth, this book is for you. Through hard-earned lessons, honest reflections, and fierce determination, Aileen proves that you don’t need permission to lead—you just need to believe it’s possible.
