One Woman’s Quest to Heal Family Trauma and Systemic Pain<\/div>\n

MARIETTA, GA –<\/strong> In a memoir that bears witness to a painful era, Dr. Queen Shamala Bessie Davis Fayemi Smith<\/strong> reveals the deep scars of racism, family secrets, and survival. Breaking the Cycles of Pain: Soul Secrets<\/a>, newly released by Authors Tranquility Press, is a raw and necessary narrative. It pulls readers into the shotgun houses and segregated world of mid twentieth century Kinston, North Carolina, where a young girl named Doris Love learns that the greatest dangers lurk behind her own front door.<\/p>\n

This powerful story unfolds on two fronts. Externally, it captures the relentless indignities of Jim Crow life. Internally, it exposes a hidden war within the family, where a respected father conceals a monstrous betrayal. Seen through the eyes of Doris, a perceptive child who seeks truth in books and borrowed magazines, the memoir pieces together a childhood shattered by abuse and silence.<\/p>\n

More than a tale of trauma, it is a map of recovery. It chronicles how the act of writing became a lifeline, transforming personal agony into a tool for healing and advocacy. The author’s own journey from student to teacher to counselor mirrors this path, showing how breaking silence can break cycles.<\/p>\n

Breaking the Cycles of Pain: Soul Secrets<\/em> courageously challenges taboos that have long plagued the Black community, addressing incest, depression, and spiritual crisis with unwavering honesty. It is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the transformative power of speaking one’s truth.<\/p>\n

The book is available for purchase now on Amazon<\/a>.<\/p>\n
