I returned, and saw under the sun, that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favour to men of skill, but time and chance happeneth to them all. (Ecclesiastes 9:11/KJV)

“After my sorority sister, Ananda Leeke, launched The Stroke Diva Fabulous Show podcast in 2011, God gave me the vision to share my story,” Richmond told Making Headline News this week. “I realized my journey could inspire and uplift others, demonstrating that recovery and reinvention are possible, even in adversity.”

“It is an invitation to unmask your purpose, unveil your greatness, and uplift your tribe. Together, let’s turn our stories into a lasting legacy.”
The legwork for Destiny Exposé commenced a little more than a year ago, a process Richmond fully embraced, given the immeasurable leadership of the Visionary.
“I wanted to be part of (the anthology) to show others that there is life beyond tragedy and to share how faith, community, and resilience helped me overcome a stroke and redefine my life,” Richmond, a native of Washington, D. C., said.
For what it’s worth, Richmond felt greatly inspired to pen the chapter entitled, Leading Through Stroke: An Inspirational Story of Recovery, Resilience, and Reinvention.
“I began writing my chapter in early May 2024 and completed it by the summer of the same year,” Richmond recalls. “It’s been a labor of love and reflection, capturing the essence of my journey. “This book is a testament to the power of resilience and faith. It’s a way for me to give back, sharing how God’s grace and the support of my community have shaped my journey.
“It aligns with my purpose to inspire and empower others through my story. God restored my life after the stroke, showing me how to transform adversity into a greater purpose.”
Now that has much-anticipated authorship debut has come full circle, coupled with being highlighted by a Barnes & Nobel bestseller label, Richmond said additional books are on the horizon.
“I plan to write more about my experiences, focusing on overcoming health challenges, finding purpose, and the importance of community in personal growth,” Richmond told MHN. “The (divine) message is that you can transform adversity into purpose with faith and support, no matter your challenges. I am blessed to have my family, friends, church community, and professional affiliations by my side. It’s about finding strength in struggle and using your story to uplift others.”
BLESSING ON BLESSINGS
Continued Richmond:
“I want readers to know that no matter how difficult life gets, you can always find a way to rise above. My journey proves that with faith, determination, and the support of loved ones, you can reinvent yourself and find a new purpose.”
