Dr. La Shawn Denise Witt, known as The Global Strategist™ has released her inspiring new memoir, “The D.I.V.A. Herself: I Survived My Mess.” This deeply moving and empowering book chronicles her personal journey through mental health, trauma, grief, and ultimately reveals how faith and resilience helped her rise.

To the outside world, Dr. Witt appeared to have a typical childhood. Loving parents, ice cream in the hot summer, Barbie gifts during Christmas, but behind the scenes things were far from perfect. She began desperately seeking for meaning, belonging, and validation at any cost, but what followed was a dangerous downward spiral of self-sabotage.

This powerful memoir is designed to give women access into Dr. Witt’s journey, her struggles with trauma, grief, self-acceptance, yet ultimately discovering purpose, faith, and resilience through life setbacks.

Dr. Witt is empowering women across the country by using her own story to advocate for personal growth and self-improvement. Reading the book will help women understand their strengths, weaknesses, and how to persevere through their adversities.

The book covers topics like:

• Struggling with Feelings of Unworthiness and Shame

• Battling The Effects of Past Trauma, Abuse, or Betrayal

• Seeking Validation in Unhealthy Ways
