4.7 . 2240 reviews

Short summary

“More Than Enough” describes, in great detail, Elaine Welteroth’s life — the wins and losses, highs and lows. It focuses on her journey toward self-discovery and uncovers all the steps that have helped her achieve so much success. This memoir chronicles her story from her birth through her major life decisions. In a riveting but straightforward manner, she narrates her experience with racism and self-awareness. Elaine shares her challenges as a road map to finding the good within you. She strips away the facade of success and the safety blanket of social media, and reveals all the hidden stories behind her success. She reminds you that each day presents a new chance to gain lessons from life. Now an award-winning journalist, author, and judge on the new Project Runway. She advocates for the next generation of change-makers and has written for the hit show, “Grown-Ish.” “We are all born with a sense of possibility and limitlessness.” ~ Elaine Welteroth

Almost everyone has had to fight one battle or the other against society or the world at large. Elaine Welteroth is no stranger to these battles; a biracial child born on December 10, 1986, to a black mother and a white father, she started breaking glass ceilings from a young age.

This memoir narrates how a girl who grew up in California and battled with her place in the world for the longest time, became as successful as she dreamed. It is proof that with enough determination, you can be whatever you want to be.
You are enough. You were born enough. ~ Elaine Welteroth
In your quest for success, there are so many hurdles you may need to cross, but as Elaine explains in her story, you always win when you know what you want and go after it.

Elaine chronicles how she had to show up as the best version of herself even when she was afraid. Her story describes how doing the best at your job, every time, sets you up for new opportunities. Her success is a promise of hope for every minority group or person who grew up feeling different.

Whether you’re unsure of the next step to take in your career or simply need some motivation, this summary is your ultimate guide. It examines racial privilege, discrimination, and other vital issues.

Keep reading to learn how Elaine overcame the obstacles that stood in her way and succeeded in the fashion industry.

Headway is the answer! No longer accumulating books I never read. With Headway, I initially chose the areas important to me such as productivity, time management, etc., and each day I'm provided several book summaries from which I devote 20 minutes or more each day reading. All of this on my phone! My life has improved with Headway. Truly my most useful app.

In today’s world, we rarely have time. Between our jobs, our families are social obligations, when do we have time to grow and develop ourselves? Headway is an excellent app that gives you that time it gives you those little snippets of information that you need to direct your focus in on your life. Headway gives you a chance to find out the meat of a book that you might want to purchase and read or listen to in-depth without wasting a lot of time trying to figure out is this book for me? I highly recommend the app.

I've gotten multiple books out of the library with the intent to read them, but always have a hard time finding the time. This app has helped me finally be able to get to them. Summarized, yes, and thank goodness too! Just short enough I can finish one on my way picking kids up from school/practice, or while I'm cooking dinner. I can't wait to listen to them over the summer when we visit the beach!

It amazed me! There is the possibility to highlight the most important points of each book and instantly translate unfamiliar vocabulary. With the ability to review the searched words. It's a great way to learn more about English as well. The price is great.

I’m enjoying what I’m learning on headway.each summary comes with quotes at the end which you can save to help you remember key points. You can listen or read, I’ve found that reading puts me to sleep before I can finish but the listening feature keeps me engaged and I can finish in a brief amount of time if not one session.

Exactly what I need! I always have booklist to read, but can't committed enough to finish/start bc of too much pages. Headway is really helpful and concise with their summary. What I love the most is that the essence of the book is well crafted, so I don't only read the key points, but also there's the story and how personality of the author still well shown through the summary. Well done!
