Through poignant, often humorous stories, you will discover the secrets to MelindaÆs success, finding practical help to overcome your own obstacles to achieve the next level in any area of life.Because she was tone deaf as a child, DoolittleÆs choir director would plead with her to just move her mouth and not let any sound come out. Undaunted, her love of singing drove her to enter a contest in the 7th grade and, miraculously, she won. Melinda began to realize that success in life was something bigger than herÙor, as she puts it, ÔItÆs beyond me!ÖShe began setting and systematically reaching her goals, such as singing background vocals for her many of her favorite music artists. Then by an amazing turn of events, she burst onto the music scene with her flawless vocal performances on American Idol Û becoming the clear favorite of the showÆs most difficult judge, Simon Cowell.Beyond Me also provides you a rare behind-the-scenes glimpse of one of AmericaÆs biggest pop culture phenomenon, American Idol, and how she turned that stress-filled environment into a springboard from which she could soar.
