Book Synopsis

Embrace the risk-taking nature to win in life and business, build resilience to hardships and critics, and step into your God-given purpose. Monique Rodriguez, founder of Mielle Organics, shows how leaps of faith toward your God-given vision and mission will help find success with your heart and mind intact. Lean on the power of perseverance and get back on track after setbacks by tackling what comes next with poise and power.

The Glory in Your Story dives deep into the power of fearless faith in achieving success in both personal and business life. As the founder and CEO of Mielle Organics, a multi-million-dollar hair and consumer products company, Monique Rodriguez, shares the story of how her trials led to triumphs in her family and business. As she relentlessly pursued her dreams, she discovered the guiding principles that will help readers find victory and fulfillment in pursuing their dreams.

Monique emphasizes the importance of perseverance through hard times and the strength of unyielding faith and persistence. Despite facing criticism and systemic barriers, she navigated entrepreneurship with grace and resilience, ultimately creating a successful, Black-owned business. In this inspiring book, Monique encourages readers to

• embrace the path God has given you,
• see beyond your circumstances,
• don't just survive but thrive,
• be motivated by what matters,
• and so many more invaluable lessons.

With so much focus nowadays on success through grit and hustle, many people forget the strength of being grounded in an unrelenting faith.

As Monique reveals her personal journey, she will guide readers to discover what is beyond their leap of faith. In quoting the poet Maya Angelou, "If you're always trying to be normal, you will never know how amazing you can be," she encourages others to tap into their amazing dreams and not let go.
