This is the sixth of The Game Changer Book Series, inspired by Iman Aghay. This series is a collection of behind-the-scenes stories – stories that most people never realize have laid the foundation for a successful business or company.
These stories are personal, connected to the author's heart, and many of them are being shared for the first time with you, our reader.
In reading this collection, you will resonate with this old adage:
"Everyone you meet is fighting a battle you know nothing about! Be kind, always..."

This book was recommended to me by my stepmother and it turned out to be the exact literary remedy I need at this point in my life. The stories talk about what makes us human, and how our experiences (both pleasant and challenging) can shape us and help us grow. Each of the authors is unique, yet contributes something I could relate to on a personal level. I highly recommend this book if you are seeking encouragement, hope, and to feel like you're not alone.

    Wow. I highly recommend this book to literally everyone. As I get older, I continue to realize more and more that there is NO ONE who is without struggles or a past, or who lives a carefree life. When I start to find myself wandering down the dangerous path of comparing myself to others, I force myself to remember that what you see on the surface does not tell the whole story. The REAL story. In this age of the Internet and social media, it’s even HARDER to resist the urge to compare yourself and your life to others. This book, however, is full of stories of and by successful people, inspiring people, who DO tell their real stories. I was inspired as I read each one of them, seeing how they overcame their own struggles and pasts and demons, to become who they are today, the best versions of themselves. Many of them were personally touching for me because they resonated so closely to things I’ve experienced or done or felt in my own life. There are things about myself I’m not proud of, things I’ve never shared in such an honest way with other people as did the authors of this book. Reading that others – particularly individuals who are VERY successful and well-respected – experienced, did, and felt some of the EXACT same things I have, especially the not-so-nice things, was not just inspiring and encouraging, but therapeutic. This is truly a beautiful compilation of stories, and I know that I will revisit and reread them all again, probably more than once. If you are an imperfect person, I encourage you to read this book. I guarantee it will leave you feeling encouraged, validated, and important. Not only that, the format makes it great bedtime reading, to read over the course of days or weeks, or for those who may not have much time to dedicate to reading on a daily basis. (Or, you might be like me and finish it in just a couple of days!) May we all strive to overcome the not-so-nice things we’ve experienced, done, and felt and give ourselves the grace to move forward and realize that those things do not define us, nor do they place a ceiling on our ability to grow, achieve and succeed!

    Although I myself have never started a business or a company, I have always been curious about how one goes about it. This book takes it to an even deeper level, beyond the mechanics of starting a business. You learn about the backgrounds of the entrepreneurs themselves; what in their past inspired them to start a business, why their business is important to them, and how they want to help others through their business.

    Even beyond the entrepreneurial/business aspect of things, this is a book that anyone can relate to. It reminds you that everyone goes through challenges in life, and that you are not alone. It means a lot to know that other people have been through something like what you have been through, and to hear how they have overcome things or used challenges for change is an inspiration for how to make changes in your own life.

    I recommend this book to everyone, because it is a book for everyone. Whether you're a student, entrepreneur, stay-at-home mom, doctor, janitor, or work in a corporate office, there is something for you in this book.

    10/10, would recommend.

    The wonder and the pain..."The Game Changer" is a phenomenal book that takes you behind the curtain to see just how success manifests!! I was particularly drawn to Monique McDonald's contribution.

    Monique McDonald, in her literary work, "Now You Are The Voice", gives us a very personalized account of how she was able to embrace both the wonder and the pain that shaped her life into what we see, and know her to be, today. Monique skillfully shares the wonder of watching her Mother, an accomplished opera singer in the pinnacle of her career, magnanimously use her God-given gifts, talents, and abilities to communicate, through song, to masses while, simultaneously, allowing each individual to feel as if they were the very center of her life. That would be a great story, but true to her integrity, Monique also carefully depicts the emotional and mental pain of grief, sorrow, frustration, anxiety, loss, and more in her Mother's passing.

    "Now You Are The Voice" emphasizes that it is the co-dependency of our wonderFULL and painFULL experiences that makes our lives FULL and COMPLETE, so that we may live in the manifestation of our destiny and purpose.

    I invite you, reader, to allow Monique McDonald, through "Now You Are The Voice", to lead and accompany you to the discovery of YOUR VOICE that has been shaped through the wonder and the pain of your life!!

    I love the Game Changers series, because I love inspirational stories. What I didn't realize was the there are two levels of game changers. The obvious, where someone changes the game to make life better for others. However the real surprise for me was the enormous adversities these courageous writers had to overcome. Their contributions came out of adversity to bring good for others. Dr. Cheryl Bryant Bruce was one of my favorite stories. She brought tears to my eyes with her incredible story about her son Gregory and her strength, perseverance and incredible integrity. Monique McDonald spoke to my heart with her story about beautiful singing and the impact of an incredible parent as a role model. All of the stories had gifts for me. I don't want to spoil it for you. It is a most inspiring collection of true stories overcoming adversity and changing the game of life. I cried, I laughed, I celebrated. I highly recommend this book.

    Wonderful book by Iman aghay and his authors. I was especially touched by stories of Jyotsna Muppalla, Catherine Napoli-Cohen, Monique Mc Donald and Petra contrada. If you have the courage to begin you have the courage to succeed. If you are looking for something that will inspire and motivate you, if you have been through challenges and made it through the other side, this is the book for you.....
