      Your Next Level Life by Karen Arrington contains seven simple rules that will improve your life once you follow them. This excellent motivational book will help you discover your superpowers, upgrade your circle of friends, create your own big opportunities, and more. It contains the right resources and practical advice that will help you level up right away.

      I loved Rule 2, "Find Your Next Level Friends," the most because, as Karen says, having a circle of sisters or being part of a tribe full of powerful women will only bring you to a whole new level of success. Overall, Your Next Level Life is a great read, especially for young women, as they need guidance the most.

    About the Author

    Foreword

    The year was 1977 when I first met Karen at the University of Maryland, College Park. She and I had decided to pledge the sisterhood of Zeta Phi Beta that fall. She was line sister one and I was line sister two. When I tell you it was friendship-love at first sight, please believe me. We made an instant connection fueled by our wit, stubbornness, and insatiable sense of humor.

I, on the other hand, knew very little about how and why being a part of this sisterhood could go on to shape the rest o f my life.

    Karen was also the daughter of the mayor of Seat Pleasant, Maryland. She came from a prominent family where both of her parents were high achievers and expected the same from their children. As Karen’s friend, I had no choice but to adopt those same high expectations and tried dearly to keep up with them. Truth be told, this was the foundation that carried me through to graduation when many of our freshman friends dropped out of college and went home early. Before either of us really could define what going to the Next Level meant, Karen was already taking me there.

    Soon after graduation, Karen and I went in different directions. Her entrepreneurial route started with creating the Miss Black USA Pageant, an institution that is determined to, in Karen’s words, help Black women to claim their power, redefine their destinies, and defy expectations. Karen went on to create her own women’s leadership coaching, consulting, and luxury travel company where she continues to teach, groom, inspire, and support all who come into contact with her passion and brilliance.
