A memoir from the revolutionary editor credited with bringing social consciousness to the pages of Teen Vogue and an inspiring exploration of what it means to be enough.

INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

WINNER OF THE 2020 NAACP IMAGE AWARD FOR OUTSTANDING LITERARY WORK - BIOGRAPHY/AUTOBIOGRAPHY

In this part-manifesto, part-memoir, the revolutionary editor who infused social consciousness into the pages of Teen Vogue explores what it means to come into your own - on your own terms.

Elaine Welteroth has climbed the ranks of media and fashion,

shattering ceilings along the way. In this riveting and timely memoir,

the groundbreaking editor unpacks lessons on race, identity, and

success through her own journey, from navigating her way as the

unstoppable child of a unlikely interracial marriage in small-town

California to finding herself on the frontlines of a modern movement for

the next generation of change makers.

Welteroth moves beyond

the headlines and highlight reels to share the profound lessons and

struggles of being a barrier-breaker across so many intersections. As a

young boss and the only black woman in the room, she's had enough of the

world telling her - and all women - they're not enough. As she learns to

rely on herself by looking both inward and upward, we're ultimately

reminded that we're more than enough.

In sharing her joys, pitfalls, adventures, self doubt, and successes, she reminds us that through uncovering and discovering the many facets of ourselves, we are more than enough. * Yara Shahidi * Elaine's book is a call for young women to find their voice and spark their courage - it's a book I would have loved to have discovered as a young woman starting my own career. * Reese Witherspoon * More Than Enough is a guide for young people who want to find their voice, a crash course for those who want to challenge the status quo, and an adventure story for all of us.
