The Awakening I Couldn’t Ignore

About The Book

The Awakening I Couldn’t Ignore is a deeply personal and spiritually charged memoir by Da’Ziyah—a testimony of transformation, healing, and redemption. From a childhood marked by trauma and silence to a young adulthood filled with confusion, pain, and the weight of broken family bonds, Da’Ziyah chronicles her journey through darkness into light.

Told with unfiltered honesty, this story invites readers into the heart of a young woman who tried to rebuild her life by her own strength—only to be met with divine interruption. Through conviction, surrender, and revelation, she comes to understand what it truly means to walk in obedience, live in truth, and follow Christ with her whole heart.

This is not just a story of brokenness—it is a mirror for anyone who has ever questioned their worth, fought silent battles, or wandered from their identity. It is a call back to truth. A call to the daughters who were silenced before they could speak. A call to the weary souls who thought faith was just belief without action. A call to those who are ready to wake up.

This is the story of the child God called back—and the awakening she could no longer ignore.
