She satisfies every requirement. Exceeds every expectation. And still gets passed over.

If you've ever watched someone less qualified get the opportunity you earned, while you carried the team, stayed late, and said nothing - this book was written for you.

Overqualified. Overworked. Overlooked is the career book no one had the courage to write until now.

Author Deondriea Cantrice exposes the invisible trap high-achieving professionals fall into: the belief that hard work alone will be recognized, rewarded, and is enough.

It isn't. And deep down, you already know that.

This isn't another "lean in" lecture or a list of corporate platitudes dressed up as empowerment. This is a strategic, no-nonsense guide for women in leadership, first generation career professionals, and ambitious women of color who are done being the best-kept secret in every room they enter.

Inside, you'll discover:

• Why excellence without positioning keeps you invisible and what to do instead
• How to break the cycle of overperformance and under-recognition without guilt
• The mindset shifts that separate women who get seen from women who get spent
• A proven framework for reclaiming your confidence, your voice, and your career trajectory
