“Rashmi’s story reveals the quiet pain so many people carry and the courage it takes to face ourselves with honesty and compassion. She shows how connection, accountability, and community can rebuild a life even in moments of profound isolation. All Rise is a reminder that healing is possible when we choose truth over fear and reach toward others instead of turning away. Her voice brings light to the places most people are afraid to name.”

—Vivek Murthy, former United States surgeon general

“In All Rise, Rashmi threads together the intricate questions of identity and the quiet peril of ambition—how a life built on achievement can become both armor and trap, a salve for the hidden ache of not feeling enough. She writes with rare honesty about the invisible weight women carry: the insistence that we be flawless, especially as mothers, and the unspoken warning that any misstep might mark us as unworthy, unwelcome, undone. Rashmi refuses that narrative. Instead, she insists on women’s full dimensionality—our agency, our complexity, our right to falter and begin again. Her story is a powerful summons to befriend ourselves, to risk, to stumble, and to rise with the same fierce conviction that animates her own journey.”

—Molly Bloom, entrepreneur, speaker, and author of Molly’s Game

“Rashmi delivers a rare blend of candor and insight that speaks to leaders at every level. All Rise is more than a memoir. It is a call to examine our choices, honor our values, and lead from a place of truth. Her journey shows that strength is built through accountability, humility, and the willingness to rise after every fall.”

—Jeffrey Bartel, chairman and managing director, Hamptons Group

“Reading All Rise felt like sitting with a friend who refuses to let you shrink. Rashmi writes with warmth, vision, and a spirit that lifts you out of your own doubt. Her journey from heartbreak to healing gives every reader permission to choose purpose and walk toward a future filled with possibility.”

—Shannon Allen, founder of Grown

“Rashmi’s honesty moved me from the first page. She gives voice to the pressures many professionals feel but rarely acknowledge. All Rise is a powerful journey through accountability, renewal, and the strength that comes from owning your story. She reminds us that redemption is real and that purpose is built one brave step at a time.”

—Damien Atkins, former general counsel of Hershey's and current general counsel for MrBeast

“Rashmi brings humanity back into leadership in a way that feels urgently needed. Her story invites us to look at our own choices with humility and courage. All Rise shows how growth begins the moment we stop pretending and start listening to what our lives are trying to teach us. This book will stay with every leader who reads it.”
