“LIFE TRIED TO CRUSH HER BUT ONLY SUCCEEDED IN AWAKENING THE QUEEN IN HER.”
— Sharlene Balfour-Joseph
You have to know that you are a Queen before you receive your crown. The crown is not what makes you a Queen. The Queen produces the crown.
All throughout her life, Sharlene has experienced situations that have discouraged her, tore her down, and left her feeling hopeless. In Queen's Don't Crumble she tells, for the first time, the story of her life. The pain she endured within the confines of her familial situation, the horror she suffered at the hands of an abusive boyfriend, and the tribulations she has faced as she began having children of her own.
Sharlene touches on the effects of what she went through, how she managed to overcome it through unwavering faith, and how she finally began to think of herself as a Queen. Through her story, she hopes to encourage other young women to take control of their life in “Queen's Don't Crumble.”
