Through overcoming anxiety, depression, and personal hardships, Sharonda has discovered the importance of maintaining a positive and healthy mindset, “My goal for my readers is to know that their minds are very powerful. How you feel on the inside, dictates how you navigate through life on the outside. I want them to know the importance of keeping their mind on Christ. ‘Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.’ (Isaiah 26:3).”

Sharonda is the author of "Mental Makeover: Reclaiming Your Beauty from the Inside Out," and a trauma-informed mental health professional.
