Overview of "A Time to Rise" Book Series
The "A Time to Rise" book series is a compelling trilogy designed to empower women in leadership, entrepreneurship, and angel investing. Each volume not only serves as a guide but also as a call to action, inspiring women to embrace their roles as leaders, mentors, and investors, thereby transforming the landscape for future generations.
"Upsetting the Table: Women Mentoring Women"
This first book delves into the transformative power of mentorship through an engaging business fable. It addresses the hurdles women encounter in professional environments and portrays mentorship as a pivotal force for professional advancement. The book offers insights on mastering office politics, developing leadership skills, and building supportive networks.
"Fed Up to Start Up"
This book presents a deeply personal yet practical narrative about escaping the corporate routine to embark on entrepreneurial endeavors. It combines heartfelt storytelling with actionable business insights, focusing on resilience, the importance of connections, and the emotional journey of building a business from the ground up.
"Upping HER Power- Women Investing in Women"
This isn’t just about raising capital.
It’s about raising each other—at the same time.
Upping HER Power is the third & final book in the Time to Rise Series, and it’s for the women who are ready to sit on the other side of the table—not just asking for investment but offering it. It’s about shifting the dynamic, expanding the circle, and showing up with both capital and care.
If Upsetting the Table was about claiming your seat, and Fed Up to Start Up was about building something real, this book is about backing what’s next—by becoming the investor, the mentor, the trusted voice in the room.
You’ll find story, strategy, and structure—how I figured it out one deal, one mistake, one yes at a time. And you’ll find tools pulled straight from the Mentor Capital Series - Angel Investing, Mentor Capital, and Women Founders & Leaders guides—because this isn’t theory. It’s the lived experience of what works (and what doesn’t).
Whether you’re writing your first check, mentoring your first founder, or finally ready to claim your voice as a capital partner, this book will help you step into that role—with clarity, confidence, and purpose.
Because when women invest in women, we don’t just fund companies.
We grow ecosystems. We build momentum. We change the game.
And we do it together.
