“Feeling stuck or unmotivated in your startup or career? Arlan went from being homeless and on food stamps to investing MILLIONS into more than 200 companies. In her new book, It’s About Damn Time, she helps you unlock actionable solutions to your toughest roadblocks, and gives you the inspiration to change the trajectory of your life."
‘It’s About Damn Time’ shares the hard-won wisdom Arlan’s picked up on her remarkable journey from from food-stamp recipient to venture capitalist, with lessons like “The Best Music Comes from the Worst Breakups,” “Let Someone Shorter Stand in Front of You,” “The Dangers of Hustle Porn,” and “Don’t Let Anyone Drink Your Diet Coke.”
Along the way, she inspires us all to defy other people’s expectations and to become the role models we’ve been looking for.
"Arlan’s story speaks to all the would-be entrepreneurs and dreamers out there. She brings a unique perspective that has enabled her to see opportunities that others can not. Her message is simple. "Those of us who are different can rule the business world and no one can stop us."

“Reading Arlan Hamilton’s It’s About Damn Time is like having a conversation with that frank, bawdy friend who somehow always manages to make you laugh, get a little emo, and, ultimately, think about the world in a different way. . . . The book is warm, witty, and unflinching in its critique of the fake meritocracy that permeates Silicon Valley.”

"Arlan is dead right: it IS about damn time. It's about damn time we as women start trusting our voice, knowing our worth, and being unapologetically proud of who we are. In her new book, Arlan proves that none of us need to ask permission to show the world what we're made of. If you want to feel inspired, read this now."
