About the Book

"Battered, Tattered and Shattered is a real life, raw look at how powerful the human spirit is. This book is sure to inspire anyone who is looking to bounce back from life's biggest hits." - Jeffrey I. Moore USA - Educator, Life Coach & Motivational Speaker In her book "Battered, Tattered but not Shattered" Marie A. Abanga share her personal story of a woman on a journey to "find herself". She shares her doubts and fears in her quest to "free" herself from a past to a future she is designing. Marie talks about the domestic violence she endured and how she may have played a role in the abuse. Her story is sad, heartbreaking but ultimately hopeful. Nancy Salamone USA - Founder & CEO The Business of Me, Author "Victory Over Violence" I have this mantra, about life giving us lessons. I state that I refuse to sit down and take notes. No I go, I learn walking. And though I falter and even stumble, I fight not to fall. But, to be honest, I have lost several of those fights; fallen big time. The saving graze has been in my falling looking up, from whence I derived the energy to rise up and keep walking. This is how I have come to realize that although I be battered in and by life; and may even look so tattered, my spirit is not shattered. I have and still continue to find the strength in what remains. Dear readers, here comes another memoir of mine with the usual goal of inspiring and motivating us all. I know there are cases, yes very difficult cases where melancholia and all other disorders and mental challenges make and leave it nearly impossible to find any strength. But to the general, I suggest that it is possible. I am a citizen of both worlds. The 'normies' and the 'challenged'. I refuse to think either label makes survival, failure or even thriving automatic. May this memoir of mine therefore make a goodread. Marie Abanga, Belgium
About the Author: The author is a mother of 3 boys, her musketeers whom she for all sort of genuine and not so genuine reasons and motives, left behind in her native Cameroon while fleeing for her own 'sanity'. She is every other woman, a mother, daughter, sister, lover and friend. The author wonders aloud and in her works and various passions, how she has manged to find the strength to move on and do all she does. Her world almost got really shattered with the demise of her dearest brother of fondest memory, who had indeed been battered, left tattered and eventually shattered by epilepsy, mental illness and over medication. Probably she concludes, her 3 D principles of Determination, Discipline and Dedication, have contributed in helping her find the strength in whatever remains. Life has not always been easy she goes, it still isn't she concludes. Her truth now she explains, is that she is much more tougher than she was years ago and hence, all the more ready to live courageously and fiercely till the end. Ms. Abanga is a lawyer by profession, a dynamic and passionate advocate of Women's rights, thus a feminist, a mental health advocate, a motivational speaker and a well-being coach to some. As a consultant, she managed the African Region of the Women In Parliament Global Forum, and is now moving on as Executive Director and Compliance Manger of the Gbm Foundation for Epilepsy and Mental Wellbeing. Ms Abanga equally recently finished studying for an LL.M. in International Law with International Relations from the renowned Kent University Brussels School of International Studies.
