Why This Eagle Soared

A True Story About The Scars of Child Abuse

Why This Eagle Soared is a raw, faith-filled memoir of survival, resilience, and the quiet strength it takes to rise from unimaginable pain.

From a childhood marked by betrayal, silence, and abuse within the very place that should have offered safety, Stacey Fowler tells her story with honesty and courage. Growing up in poverty and surrounded by adults who failed to protect her, she learned early that survival would require more than endurance. It would require faith, determination, and an unshakable belief that her life held purpose beyond her suffering.

Through hunger, emotional abandonment, and walking miles just to attend school, education became her lifeline and God her refuge. Along the way, unexpected acts of kindness, loyal friendships, and divine interventions became proof that hope can appear even in the darkest places.

This book is not just about what was done to her. It is about who she chose to become.

Why This Eagle Soared speaks directly to survivors of abuse, readers navigating trauma, and anyone who has ever felt unseen, unheard, or trapped by their circumstances. It is a testimony that pain does not get the final word and that healing, though difficult, is possible.

If you have ever wondered whether your story can rise above your past, this book is for you.

“Your story is not over. If God could raise me from the ashes, He can raise you too.”
