Cecile Richards has never been one to sit quietly—and thank the stars for that.
In Make Trouble, the former Planned Parenthood president and daughter of political powerhouse Ann Richards shares her riveting journey from seventh-grade rabble-rouser to “badass feminist” (Teen Vogue) leading the resistance. Raised in conservative Texas by activist parents, Cecile learned early that raising your voice is never optional—it’s essential.
Whether organizing laborers, battling misogyny, or navigating motherhood and public life, Richards pulls no punches. Her memoir is part political history, part personal reckoning, and all rallying cry.
With stories that are honest, funny, and unapologetically bold, Make Trouble urges us to take risks, raise hell, and never wait for permission to lead.
Because change doesn’t come quietly—it comes with trouble.
