    A guide for Black women to unlock their potential in business and in life. 
  
Despite being the fastest-growing group of entrepreneurs in the US, Black women face systemic barriers that threaten to derail their dreams, including lack of funding, racial and gender bias, and a lack of senior advocates in corporate spaces. Dr. Karmetria Dunham Burton, an executive with two decades of corporate experience, offers a new vision—one rooted in spiritual strength, self-care, confidence, and authenticity. 
  
Never Wear Red Lipstick is more than a business book—it's a movement for liberation, leadership, and faith. Dr. Burton boldly dismantles the myths and limiting beliefs that have kept Black women from thriving in boardrooms and business ventures. 
  
Blending heartfelt storytelling with field-tested strategies, Never Wear Red Lipstick introduces you to the Paint Your Lips Red principles: ten truths to help Black women embrace their power and lead with boldness. From overcoming betrayal in the workplace to prioritizing wellness, from claiming spiritual inheritance to redefining what it means to be a real boss, this book speaks to every woman who's been told she has to shrink to succeed. With the "Boss Blueprint" at its core, Dr. Burton lays out a practical, faith-driven path to growth, leadership, and legacy. Whether you're in a cubicle or launching a company, this book will help you stop surviving and start soaring. 
  
"Drawing from her own experience, the author is frank about the ways racism impacts the corporate world but remains refreshingly optimistic about how readers can utilize their unique skills and experience to succeed within an unequal system. As antagonism toward workplace diversity initiatives climbs, this serves as an especially valuable resource for Black Christian entrepreneurs and professionals looking to get ahead."—Publishers Weekly

    After my son, Michael, passed at the age of nineteen, I started writing down my experiences: the inner struggles, the questions, and most importantly, the inner dialogue between myself and the Universe. In the beginning, it wasn’t my intention to write a book. 
When you lose someone you love, it can be devastating. Your world is no longer the same. What do you do now? How do you handle it? How do you honor that person? It’s a tough and painful situation, no matter how you look at it. 
But through that loss, I discovered hidden there are great gifts of change and growth—an expansion of Love I didn’t know existed. 
Your relationship with your loved one isn’t over; it can become even deeper now. 
My hope is that, by sharing my experiences, I can help you connect with your authentic self and bring you closer to your loved ones and the Universe.

    Menopause: so many symptoms, so few remedies, so many years, so few heads-ups.  
In Steamy, you’ll find forty-five of the ever-expanding list of things people can encounter when going through The Change, including challenges (such as #4 Night Sweats and #21 Anxiety) and boons (such as #41 Individuation and #45 Fewer Shits). In this raucous memoir, Susan Holbrook opens up an experience still constrained by cultural silences and myths. Steamy is honest, vulnerable, gross, and might just be the funniest book you’ve ever read about menopause, or anything else (see #37 Bloating). If, at a certain stage of life, you find yourself sucker-punched by a sweaty fistful of symptoms you can’t believe no one told you about, Steamy is for you – and for all the other hot-and-bothereds out there.
