From childhood rejection to adult resilience, Destined to Rise is a raw, emotional, and ultimately empowering story of one woman's fight to find peace, purpose, and unconditional love—within herself.

Raised by her God-fearing grandmother after her mother abandoned her, Destiny Jackson learned early on that love came with conditions—and survival came with sacrifice. With a father in and out of prison and a home filled with silence instead of support, Destiny was forced to grow up fast, working for everything she had and clinging to her faith like a lifeline.

But when a fire burns her childhood home to ashes, Destiny's life spirals. Forced to live with the very woman who didn't want her, under the roof of a cruel stepfather, Destiny begins hiding parts of herself just to stay safe—including her sexuality, her struggles, and later, her cancer diagnosis.

Even as life deals blow after blow—chemo, betrayal, abandonment—Destiny keeps fighting. She becomes a mother, a provider, and finally... her own healer. Through pain, she finds strength. Through heartbreak, she finds purpose. And when she chooses to love herself fully, she finally discovers peace—not in the arms of a man, but in the power of her own voice.

Destined to Rise is an unforgettable story of survival, motherhood, self-discovery, and the fierce determination to break generational curses and become everything they said she couldn't be.
