Williams has detailed her journey — from a victim of child sexual abuse to victor over her circumstances — in her book From Sorrows to Sapphires. Her next book, Loving Me: After Abuse, will be released later this summer. She has also created a collection of interactive workbooks on healing and prevention for adults and children’s books to help protect them by teaching them how to defend themselves from abusive behavior.

She has captivated audiences with her powerful message of triumph over tragedy as a victim of childhood physical and sexual abuse. At age seventeen, she attempted suicide, and that day was the end of her torment and the beginning of a journey to healing.
