   "Through Darkness I Saw Light": About the Book

   “Never give up. There is always light at the end of a dark path.” On an ordinary September morning, Rebecca Azuelos received the phone call every parent fears. Her son, Shalom Nethanel Ouanounou, had suffered a catastrophic asthma attack and was declared clinically dead. What followed was a six-month vigil beside his hospital bed, and a journey through faith, hope, grief, miracles, community and unconditional love. Rebecca refused to leave his side. She lived day and night in an intensive care unit, surrounded by family, friends, nurses, rabbis, strangers, and an entire community united in prayer. In Through Darkness I Saw Light, she writes about what she found there: a love that refuses to die, a faith that survives the impossible, and the way one young man’s legacy continues to reach everyone he touched.

Her childhood took her from Morocco to London, then Switzerland, before she settled in Toronto, where she built her life and raised her family. A devoted mother, wife, community volunteer and advocate for kindness, Rebecca has spent much of her life caring for others. Since the passing of her son, she has dedicated herself to preserving his legacy through charitable initiatives, volunteer work and acts of kindness performed in his memory. Through Darkness I Saw Light is her first memoir. “A life is not measured by how long it lasts. It is measured by the lives it touches.”

The $50M Consulting Firm is a growth roadmap for consulting firm founders, co-written with Doug Taylor. In this episode, Mark talks about the walls that stop most firms from scaling, why decentralization is harder than it sounds, and how 35 blog posts became a book he never planned to write.
