Our special guest today is Dr. Ketra L. Davenport-King an Award-Winning Author of the 2021 Henri Christian Literary Awards.
Dr. Ketra has written a fictional memoir (Seeing Beyond The Shattered Glass) based on her true-life events that is easy to digest and will hopefully inspire victims of sexual abuse who have suffered in silence to speak their truth.
The fictional memoir is depicted through the eyes of the character Kassidie Noel Winters; Kassidie is tired of living behind shattered glass! She was a child full of joy, laughter, and pure innocence. At the age of six, her life drastically changed forever by the one person she trusted. The dark hole left by being robbed of her innocence became filled with low self-esteem, anger, and poor decisions that would follow her into adulthood. Through professional counseling, Kassidie unlocks the buried parts of her past to face her childhood struggles, forgive her abuser, and put the shattered pieces in her life back together. From the first page of the book to the explosive ending, the reader will experience Kassidie's pain, recovery, and ultimately her triumph.
