Overcoming: A Journey From Pain to Peace, Purpose and Power by Natasha Ickes-Saman

Finalist
Health: Addiction & Recovery
2021 Best Book Awards

Overcoming is an inspiration to all women who struggle with depression, stagnation and unfulfillment to seek out the peace, power and joy in their own lives.

She was a little girl who loved ice skating, reading and music. Yet from a young age Natasha felt different. She struggled with depression, feelings of abandonment and low self esteem. At 9 she stood with a knife pressed to her wrist, contemplating taking her own life. By 17 she was a pregnant high school dropout.

The next several years were filled with drugs and homelessness on the violent streets of Oakland. She survived through God, her intuition and a profound desire to change. One day she discovered a secret that would change her life forever. This poignant memoir follows Natasha’s journey from a depressed child, to a suicidal teen, to a successful business woman.

Voices from the Fallen: True Stories of Addiction, Grief, Recovery and Courage by Michael K. Tourville

Finalist
Health: Addiction & Recovery
2021 Best Book Awards

Voices from the Fallen takes us on an intimate journey inside the lives of people who have experienced the hell of addiction, the relentless defeat of relapse, and hope of recovery.

Listen to them speak about fear and desperation, hope and optimism. Sit with them in solitary misery, feel their grief over a lost family member, and share their joy with the promise of a renewed life.

Listen closely, for these courageous voices come from those all around us, and can help rebuild shattered families, restore broken hearts, and save lives.

“If, like so many others, you've lost sight of your own life in the drama of tending to someone else's addiction, you may find yourself in this book. Fantastic job taking us into the mind of the addict.” — Dean Cain, Actor, Producer
