Leadership strategist Bukky Osifeso released her first book, Rooted and Rising, which examines the intersection of high achievement and personal well-being. The text argues that professional success does not require sacrificing one's mental health or identity.
Drawing on her career at companies like Netflix and Disney, Osifeso addresses the burnout often experienced by high-achieving women. The book serves as a guide for those seeking to redefine their professional goals while maintaining personal stability.
Each chapter incorporates Yoruba proverbs to frame contemporary discussions on boundaries and self-permission. The author focuses on the concept of reclaiming personal agency from societal expectations.
The publication taps into a growing cultural shift among professionals who are moving away from hustle culture. There is an increasing demand for leadership literature that prioritizes longevity and mental health over traditional, high-intensity output models.
By integrating ancestral wisdom with modern corporate experience, the book reflects a broader trend of professionals seeking holistic frameworks to manage long-term career demands without compromising their personal lives.
