In corporate America, women of color are often asked to prove themselves repeatedly, navigate unspoken rules, and decode silence from managers. While gaslighting diminishes confidence and clouds truth, truthlighting offers a powerful alternative. Coined and defined in this groundbreaking book, truthlighting is a set of intentional behaviors that validate, uplift, and empower individuals-replacing doubt with trust and opacity with clarity.
Drawing from in-depth interviews with minority women across industries, this book goes beyond the promotion process to explore how bias shows up-and how it can be dismantled. It offers actionable guidance for employees, managers, and HR leaders committed to driving systemic change. From Gaslighting to Truthlighting isn't just a critique of what's broken-it's a blueprint for what's possible.
