I am Dr. Natashia Stafford-Cotton, a native of Portland, Oregon, and I have spent most of my life in Northern California. I hold a doctorate and master's degree in Industrial and Organizational Psychology from Walden University, along with an MBA (with a concentration in Executive Business Management) and a BA in Behavioral Science from National University. I am married and blessed with four children and three dogs.
If I want to pick it up, if I want to relinquish the protection over my peace...if I want to set aside my positive disposition, the opportunity is always there.
When the unimaginable occurred four months into my marriage, I not only survived the devastation but had the audacity to brazenly live!
This memoir will not take you on a dark, depressive path and then finally into the light. It's raw, honest, and the stuff people do not tell you about how to keep thriving through any disruption.
No frills, steps, or gimmicks. If you struggle with letting life's unexpected circumstances get you down or are even unsure how to help a loved one seemingly paralyzed by the bomb dropped in their life, then this is the perfect read for you.
