Flip the Tables: The Everyday Disruptor's Guide to Finding Courage and Making Change

by Alencia Johnson Narrated by Alencia Johnson

Overview

From a cultural critic and social impact leader comes a guide for everyday disruptors to find their courage, disrupt the status quo, and create a better world, right where they are.

Most of us want our lives to have meaning and purpose, but too often we don't know where to start. Each of us has unique gifts, talents, and perspectives that the world needs right now. We just have to find the courage to realize what they are.

Flip the Tables is for people who have been told that they cannot change the world, even though they know otherwise. Alencia Johnson shares her personal stories-from working through insecurities and overcoming adversity, to advocating for women's rights at Planned Parenthood, and advising on presidential campaigns. She also dives into stories of powerful movements and people who've challenged the way we think and show up in the world. With self-assessments at the end of each chapter and actionable ideas to implement now, she shows readers how to create change by starting with their own dreams.

Being a changemaker may sound like a lofty goal but, the truth is, the world is waiting for the greatness in every one of us. You can create change right where you are. Flip the Tables will show you how.

Editorial Reviews

From the Publisher

"This book is for those who believe social change belongs to “those other people” - the powerful ones, the successful ones, the confident and popular ones. In fact, as Alencia beautifully explains, each of us has the capacity to make good trouble exactly how we are and where we are. Turns out, we are the ones. This book is your guide to help create the world you are dreaming of."

—Jen Hatmaker, 4x NY Times bestselling author and host of the For the Love Podcast

"For anyone looking to ground themselves in their purpose and steady their way through making sense of the moment, flip the cover open and dive in. Alencia weaves together seamlessly a pep talk, a sermon, and what feels like an intimate chat over a warm cup of tea."—Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley
