Rooted and Rising: Bukky Osifeso Redefines Sustainable Ambition for Modern High-Achieving Women

In her debut book, Rooted and Rising: Building a Life That Holds You While You Grow, leadership strategist Bukky Osifeso challenges the traditional narrative that equates success with burnout. Drawing on over two decades of senior experience at industry giants like Netflix, Disney, and Amgen, Osifeso addresses high-achieving women who have reached professional heights only to find themselves disconnected from their personal well-being. The book serves as a vital blueprint for those seeking to reconcile professional ambition with the necessity of rest.

Osifeso uniquely bridges the gap between ancestral wisdom and modern corporate strategy by anchoring each chapter in Yoruba proverbs passed down through her family. She expands upon the popular "Let Them" philosophy by introducing her own "Let Me" framework, empowering readers to reclaim their personal agency. This approach encourages women to set boundaries and define success on their own terms, proving that a sustainable life is built through intentional pauses rather than constant, relentless output.

As the founder of The TAG Group, an AI-native consultancy, Osifeso brings a fresh, analytical perspective to the intersection of human performance and mental health. With an upcoming national book tour on the horizon, she is sparking a cultural movement for professionals ready to stop performing for others and start living for themselves. Rooted and Rising is now available globally, offering a transformative guide for any woman ready to build a life that truly supports her growth.
