Cynthia Williams knows what it is like to have the hand of God orchestrating her life. Born and raised by a Christian grandmother, Cynthia didn't wake up one day and decide to be a drug addict. She didn't decide to leave her children alone and go to prison, but it happened. Losing her grandmother at age 15 and her mom at 21, Cynthia learned to do what she had to do in order to raise her children and brother. It was her experiences from an early age of molestation, trauma, loneliness, and abuse that led her to a vicious cycle of sexual promiscuity, drugs, and prison. Travel with her through these memoirs of life to show the road that led to drug addiction and beyond. The trials and troubles that led from a life of being alone to a family that she would never have believed she'd have. From addict to inmate to an upstanding public figure and motivational speaker who has a full pardon and total expungement of her criminal record. Cynthia helps those who are where she has been by telling her testimony and assisting them in understanding that trouble don't last always. She is a living witness to God's grace and mercy; and knows firsthand that you can overcome these troubles and turn your life around. All you have to do is follow God's lead.
