Reviews
The Other Side of Change is a rare combination of beautiful storytelling, cognitive science and wholehearted wisdom. How lucky are we to have Maya walk with us through the unexpected and often uninvited moments that shape who we are and how we make our way through the world. * Brené Brown, Ph.D., bestselling author of Atlas of the Heart and Daring Greatly * The book we all need when life knocks us sideways. This is your guide to finding strength in the mess, clarity in the chaos, and a version of yourself you never saw coming. Smart, deeply moving, and grounded in science - it will change how you see change. * Mel Robbins, bestselling author of The Let Them Theory * Maya Shankar has written a moving and powerful book about a challenge that all of us will or have faced. What happens when our carefully laid plans and deeply held expectations go awry? I loved The Other Side of Change. * Malcolm Gladwell, bestselling author of Blink and Outliers * A wise and poignant read for our turbulent times. With powerful stories and practical science, Maya examines how we find purpose after adversity and possibility under uncertainty. * Adam Grant, bestselling author of Think Again and Hidden Potential * Having faced the bewildering wreckage of an aftermath, I can’t recommend this book highly enough. The Other Side of Change is a collection of stories where quaking forces like illness and loss cleave life into before and after, paired with practical wisdom and science-backed techniques for rebuilding. Maya Shanker has penned a tender, helpful companion for all of us. * Suleika Jaouad, bestselling author of Between Two Kingdoms and The Book of Alchemy *
The book we all need when life knocks us sideways. * Mel Robbins, bestselling author of The Let Them Theory *
