She didn’t protect her daughter, yet she saved her life. Find out how in her poem, I Forgive You, and how author Heather Omara Reese overcame sexual trauma and life-changing adversity through the healing power of art and her faith.

In The Fire From Her Tongue, Heather’s story is not that different than perhaps your own, or that of someone you love deeply. She reveals beauty from ashes in this brave anthology that will allow those who feel unseen, to be seen, and those who have not yet told their story, to finally speak up.

Journey with Heather through her lyrical dances as she demonstrates the power of self love, forgiveness, justice, life and gut wrenching grief.

Bold, honest and entertaining, Heather gives us a front row seat to the process of healing one's soul. Whether that means forgiving someone for your own freedom, taking the necessary steps needed for growth and change, or sharing with those you love, the value woven into this book is priceless!

"The poetic documentation of Heather's life experiences...is a reminder that sometimes our stories are the same even if they are different. While reading, be prepared to be seen, heard, and embraced as her words speak to your own personal experiences”.—Donte Woods-Spikes, Professional Speaker, Ted Talk, Documentarian, Author, Educator
