people to be their best selves reflects her purpose to build connections by using her voice and various pursuits while portraying her faith journey. Her memoir reflects on the influences of her family and their role in displaying what One Nation Under God, Indivisible means for all of us. In her own words, she looks at her "character arc" and why authenticity is important.

"A life well-lived means different things to different people, but I hope people will see that I lived life well with many people and places stretching across decades. I have great appreciation and love for many throughout my life. I always believed it wasn't too late to change, with the help of God, despite confronting the swirling good and evil in American society.

"If one is a big thinker, one must consider that this person also feels a lot. It has only been in recent times that people are into tell-alls. Every story doesn't need to be told. We all have trials where things could have gone a different way. I hope others see this memoir as something more relevant, an ordinary woman with strong faith, leading others to be their best selves. Visualize my walk even though you cannot walk in my shoes."
