From Fear to Freedom: A Near-Death Journey Through Darkness and Awakening

What if the light you thought was lost... was never gone?
What if it has only been waiting to be remembered?
When longtime hospice nurse Michelle Ledbetter collapsed into silence, her near-death experience revealed a truth she could no longer deny: the light she'd been chasing had lived within her all along.
In this deeply honest memoir, she shares her return from trauma, addiction, and self-abandonment to a life of healing and homecoming.
If you've ever felt too far gone-
If you've longed to feel whole-
If you're ready to remember who you truly are-
This book is your invitation.
You are not broken.
You are the light.
Come home to your true self.
