Praise for The Trailblazer's Playbook "This is the epitome of the theory of the concept of human abundance articulated with a fantastic life story and a fantastic set of life outcomes against all odds. Nothing is greater than the empowerment of humans as trailblazers, and here we have a playbook on which each person can find a way." -MICHAEL M. CROW, President, Arizona State University "Serving on the Girl Scouts USA board under Sylvia Acevedo's leadership, I saw firsthand her extraordinary gift for turning obstacles into opportunities. Her remarkable book distills powerful personal lessons into clear, actionable strategies-essential reading for anyone driven to overcome challenges and realize their fullest potential." -CHARLIE GARCIA, Founder, R360; and served six U.S. Presidents, of both parties "Sylvia's awe-inspiring journey from brave to vulnerable leader is a must-read for anyone looking to own their power and their humanity. Her unique and universal reflections and actionable advice, equip aspiring leaders with a playbook for success." -KAMINI RAMANI, former CMO, Mayfield Fund; and Author of Lotus Leadership "In The Trailblazer's Playbook, Sylvia Acevedo offers a raw and powerful reflection on leadership and the power of persistence. She creates a bond with her readers by sharing an honest assessment of her challenges and victories, helping us see our journey within hers. Sylvia reminds us that being a trailblazer isn't about getting everything right; it's about meeting obstacles with steadiness, moving forward with quiet resolve, and giving back to others." -AMBASSADOR LISA GABLE, Wall Street Journal and USA Today Bestselling Author "Sylvia Acevedo has spent her life toppling barriers-in aerospace, technology, and leadership. In The Trailblazer's Playbook, she offers not only the extraordinary story of how a girl from a desert town became a NASA scientist and Silicon Valley executive, but also an actionable roadmap for the next generation to follow. This is a guide for anyone-especially women and girls-seeking to defy expectations and lead the way in science, technology, and innovation. Sylvia reminds us that the most powerful force for building the future isn't just intellect, it's tenacity." -AMBASSADOR BARBARA BARRETT, 25th Secretary of the U.S. Air Force
