The Light Above the Trees

A Survivor’s Story of Strength, Silence, and Sacred Rebirth

De: LA-Nicea Ward

Narrado por: Kevin Harris

The Light Above the Trees is the raw, powerful, and deeply inspiring story of La-Nicea Ward—a woman, a mother, a veteran, and a survivor. Born in Opelousas, Louisiana, La-Nicea survived childhood abuse, teenage motherhood, domestic violence, and military trauma. Yet, through the darkest moments, she found the strength to rise—again and again. From basic training to building a 4,000 sq. ft. home for her family, she defied the odds and rewrote her legacy.

This memoir is a tribute to every woman who has been silenced, beaten down, or told she wasn’t enough. It’s for the warrior who’s still climbing, still hoping, still healing. “Sometimes you have to walk away with nothing but your soul intact. When you're in the forest, you can't see above the trees. But keep climbing—and you’ll find the light.”

What you'll find in this book:

• Strength through military and motherhood

• A real account of healing from PTSD and domestic violence

• A journey of transformation, faith, and spiritual rebirth, hope, courage, and a roadmap to reclaiming your power

If you’ve ever been broken, bruised, or buried—this book is your reminder: you are not defeated. You are divine. And your story isn’t over yet.
