Too many of us move through life silencing our truest selves: biting our tongues, shrinking our spirits, playing small just to get by. Whether it's trauma, shame, systems built to keep us quiet, or simply the grind of everyday life, we forget the sound of our own voice: bold, brave, unfiltered.

The Voice You Forgot You Had is a call to remember.

Through raw honesty, humor, and spoken word storytelling, Faith Rodman Alpher's debut poetry collection helps readers reclaim their power, speak with clarity, and live unapologetically. It's not just a book. It's a microphone for the soul.

In these twenty-five pieces, Faith delivers her soul, and in doing so, invites you to reclaim yours. This is more than poetry. It's a lifeline for anyone who's been silenced, dismissed, or has simply forgotten how powerful their truth can be. Faith found her voice. She wants you to find yours too.

Across every generation and identity, people are aching for connection, belonging, and the freedom to speak without shame. As Abraham Maslow once wrote, "the sacred is in the ordinary, in one's daily life." You don't have to be extraordinary to be worthy. You just have to be fully yourself.

This book is timeless, because the need to be seen, heard, and uplifted never expires. Read it quietly or read it out loud. Feel it in your chest. Recognize yourself, fully and beautifully, in the rhythm of the page.

Alpher, Faith: - If Faith's middle school English teacher knew she wrote a spoken word collection, she'd probably faint. She told Faith to avoid writing altogether. Clearly, Faith didn't listen.This proud Teaneck, New Jersey native was born to uplift, entertain, educate and inspire. She's been doing that for over two decades. As a SAG-AFTRA actress, Bay Area radio personality, stand-up comedian, and award-winning keynote speaker, Faith has never believed in doing just one thing. She has inspired audiences from the boardrooms of Genentech, UCSF, and Hasbro to community stages and sold-out theaters reaching more than 250,000 people across corporate, education, and community sectors. Faith loves traveling to middle and high schools across the country to remind students and staff of their voice. Her work in leadership, resilience, and the power of voice has earned her recognition from the U.S. Congress, multiple California civic bodies, and a 2026 Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Legacy Award.She made history as the first person of color named Poet Laureate of her Northern California community. Her middle school teacher definitely would not believe it, but her mother would.
