Celebrating the Release of Flipping My Script

Today, I’m celebrating a moment that has been years in the making—the official release of my memoir, Flipping My Script. It’s a surreal feeling, but one I wouldn’t trade for the world. The journey to this point has been nothing short of transformative.

When I first started writing this book, I had no idea the emotional terrain I would have to cross. It’s been a road full of doubt, questions, and pain. At times, I wondered if I could really do it. There were moments when I asked myself if my story was worth telling. But through all the uncertainty, I kept going. I kept writing. I kept digging into the core of who I am, both as a person and as a storyteller.

But, if I’m being honest, it hasn’t been all hardship. This journey has been full of life—of love, of smiles, and of deep reflection. Every word I wrote brought me closer to understanding myself, my roots, and my purpose. At the end of it all, I gave everything I had. I poured all my love, rage, and heart into these pages. I did this not only for myself but to honor those who came before me. For my family, my mentors, and all the people who paved the way for me to stand here today.

Along the way, I had a few publishing options presented to me. Each one had its own fruits and its own path, and I seriously considered each one. But ultimately, I chose my own path—like I’ve always done. I believed in myself and in my story. I knew that this book needed to come out the way I envisioned it, on my terms. So here I am, standing on my own, proud of what I’ve created.

Flipping My Script is more than just my story—it’s a tribute to resilience, growth, and the power of forging your own path. It’s about flipping the narrative when life throws you challenges, about rising above, and about celebrating the culture and experiences that shape us.

I hope you find a piece of yourself in these pages. Whether you’re chasing a dream, fighting your own battles, or just looking for a story of hope and perseverance, Flipping My Script is for you.

Thank you to everyone who has supported me along the way. Your love and encouragement have carried me through the toughest moments. This book is as much for you as it is for me.

Here’s to all the doubters, the dreamers, and the doers—may we continue flipping the script, rewriting our stories, and honoring those who came before us.

With all my heart,

Adrian Alvarado
