Many may want to write a book but few can go through with it. I am not surprised that an amazing woman, Jyothika, has completed her book. With her tenacity, commitment, and intelligence, this dynamic and forward-looking young woman had to inspire other women to bring out their talents and learn to believe in themselves. Change is the only constant, and adapting to change is how we succeed in life. This is a must-read for all women.

Hearty congratulations, Jyothika. Keep rising. Keep shining.

Back in Control helps you to bounce back in life Whatever goes up, has to come down and vice versa, but taking control of your life ensures your victory over hurdles. Winners never quit, and even if they have to take a break, they come back with more energy and achieve their goals. Back in control will definitely inspire you to stand up again one more time, take control of your life, and fulfill your dreams.

I wish Jyothika all the very best for her first release.

Jyothika is a dynamic global leader and dedicated woman of power. Her organizational leadership and exceptional communication mastery make her one of the most prominent professionals in her field. I can attest to Jyothikas expertise in managing change. As one of the primary facilitators of my first World Public Speaking Tour, Jyothika created clear and punctilious strategies for marketing and public relations. She executed those strategies reliably and effectively. In addition, I was astonished by her propensity to perfectly balance work life and family time. I encourage readers to dive into this book. Become fully immersed in the ocean of knowledge Jyothika is gifting.

Its not every day that you meet someone who is ready to reinvent themselves while they are settled in life. Jyothika is one individual I have come across who is hungry to grow relentlessly and help those around her to grow. The passion she puts into every project she undertakes, be it her MBA in her 40s, or her Toastmaster leadership role, or growing as an entrepreneur, author, and motivational speakerthere are no ceilings to her goals. She constantly aspires for more, and her life becomes a testament to all of us on how we should never give up and always strive to constantly push the envelope to be the very best version of ourselves.

IT IS OFTEN said that champions are not those who never fall down. Champions are those who get back up to fight again. I believe thats the same in the journey of life. While everyone has good days and bad days, not everyone has what it takes to get back up after a massive setback.

This timely book by Jyothika is a wake-up call for women to know that no matter what happened to you, it is not over yetyou can get back in control. During your journey of life, whenever your vehicle skids off the road, you can consciously choose to be the driver of your life to get back onto the best path and move ahead. Throughout this book Jyothika weaves the lessons she learned from her life and from renowned experts to provide you with specific action points that you can use to achieve a better outcome in your life.

The beauty of this book lies in the vulnerability of the author to show her struggles, dilemmas, and inner conversations that you would be able to relate to. Such insights into oneself is the key to self-awareness and informed action. Having known Jyothika over the past three years, and having worked with her during her pursuit of self-discovery, I can attest to the sincerity, authenticity, and eagerness she has to help other womenand the courage to share the personal story of her life.

While this is essentially a book written by a courageous woman to help other women find courage, there is a lesson there for anyone who wants to get back in control without giving up. The principles listed in this book are timeless and effective for those who are willing to take determined action.

When something is lost, not everything is lost. When things dont go your way, it is not all over. You can write a new chapter of your life. When you have to chart a new path, you need a new map; you need to find people who can guide you on that path. As you read this book, Jyothika will come across as the guide you were looking for.
