For what it’s worth, Fernandez would ultimately fulfill her God-mandated assignment, one that came to fruition by way of The Story of A Warrior: Who Broke Free From Mental Anguish, her highly-anticipated and long-awaited memoir that, much to her delight, has enable her to diligently pull down the strongholds that had kept her bound for a considerable amount of time.

If you’ve ever questioned your worth. If you’ve ever longed to feel whole again- this is for you.”
