I love you, Nyota.
You’ll always be my girl! You helped revolutionize my life when after I turned on you with my Nunchucks poised, like Bruce Lee in Enter the Dragon, to the ready, and you lwith those sad, beautiful eyes of yours glazed over with tears, said, “Stacey, it’s so hard being your friend.”
Those few crucial words nailed me to the core of my denial about my addiction. You were right, I had changed. I allowed the heroin and the lifestyle that came with it change me.
Not long after, I became unrecognizable to myself.” It was impossible to be my own friend. Slowly, surrendered everything I had become; and cried out to God and asked Him to save me from self-destruction.
He did! 24 years later, I’m still clean, free, and grateful to God and for you.

I love you, Nyota, for the truth you told me even though I was not ready for it. It lingered there and chipped away at the wall until with God being my Helper, I broke FREE!

Who I Am
I'm an author, inspirational speaker, vocalist, and performance artist. I was a heroin addict saved from myself and the lifestyle (with all the pain that comes with it) but the mercy and grace of God. Thus, I am a late bloomer; but blooming none-the-less. I've yielded every talent given me, and am now using them to encourage, inspire, and motivate others to discover and lives God's marvelous plans for their lives. My books include my latest, Walking On Water When The Ground Ain't Enuf; I Say A Prayer For Me: One Woman's Life of Faith and Triumph (Warner); 12-Step Programs: A Resource Guide For Helping Professionals; and Contributing Author of SistahFaith: Real Stories of Pain, Truth and Triumph compiled by Marilynn Griffith (Howard/Simon&Schuster). I also perform a one-woman show with comedy infused throughout. It's who I am--by God's grace--one woman on a journey toward unwavering faith.

The masks must go. First, we have to get in touch with our truth which lies closer to the the surface than you may think, beneath the mask. For me, it started with asking God and meaning it, "Show me, Lord." A lot of times it was another person, even sometime unbeknownst to them that they...

I answered, That's Batman's buddy, Robin."
Perplexed Arin said, "Thick?" I said, "What?" He said, Thick! That's Robin Thick?"
I proceed to explain that this was Buddy-of Batman-no-last-name-Robin.
Satisfied, Arin said,...

Perhaps, you've never experienced someone holding you hostage, I pray not; but captors have many faces and names. What do I mean? What has held or is holding you hostage? Cigarettes, bad relationships, inertia, low-self esteem, sex, pornography, chocolate, work, alcohol, illegal drugs, your past, prescription drugs, unforgiveness, resentments?
Listen and try to relate...
