Overcoming fear and embracing vulnerability as a speaker and author is one of the most challenging things I have had to do. As I reflected on my own experiences and those of others, I uncovered the profound impact of truth-telling and the liberating effect it has on individuals. Join me as I explore the courage that comes from embracing one's truth and taking that first step towards personal growth and transformation.

Wondering what some readers are saying about my memoir, Daddy's House: A Daughter's Memoir of Setbacks, Triumphs & Rising Above Her Roots ? Here is a portion of one review from Amazon:

To experience a partial lifetime of adversity and emerge “whole” and wholesome is a true testament that no matter how bad things are, there is some good in everything. This book is a must-read. In it, lessons are taught, and lessons are learned. In addition to being captivating, it is also a therapeutic guide to forgiving and reclaiming freedom from the entrapment of hate. Those who have far less to forgive, and, perhaps, those who have more, will certainly have something to think about after reading Daddy’s House.
