Bøger af Janet Johnson

The author reflects on their dysfunctional family upbringing and how they, along with their sisters, had to hide their situation from others due to cultural norms and assumptions made by educators and others that kids from dysfunctional homes are less likely to be academically successful. They emphasize that children in such situations do not necessarily need family support to succeed but rather need the opportunity to build skills to be successful. They encourage educators and school counselors to challenge and rigorously educate high-performing students regardless of their home situation and for people from dysfunctional homes to recognize that things can come out okay for them in the long run. They note that a lot more people have grown up in dysfunctional households than previously realized, and many have learned to navigate toxic environments and become successful in life.

Life is full of unexpected events that can strike without warning and thrust the children of God into valleys that may, at times, seem impossible to climb out of. Janet Johnson found herself in a handful of these valleys within the span of twelve months. In December 2021, Johnson, her husband, and many of their extended family were diagnosed with COVID. She survived, but her husband passed away just three days after Christmas. In 2022, Johnson traveled to Alaska where she broke her ankle while traversing Flattop Mountain, fell in love a man who broke her already shattered heart and ended the year with a second COVID diagnosis. Climbing Out of Unexpected Valleys: Death, Rescue, Romance, Deceit is a personal memoir that is both beautifully raw and astonishingly eye-opening. Johnson reflects on the valleys she slipped into, but also how her faith and belief in God helped her climb out of them. This is a true story of never giving in to the unexpected valleys one may fall into. This is a true story of raising awareness to what and who the Enemy can manipulate to cast the children of God into valleys. This is a true story of hope and how God places people and opportunities along one's path to help them climb out of any valley, no matter how deep.
