"Detroit #MeToo Author Releases 2 New Books To Elevate Women Around the Globe"

DETROIT, July 3, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- "Reckoning Day: #MeToo Stories That Inspire You," is one of the first books in the country to provide a historical prospective of the 2017 #MeToo Movement while including 20 powerful survivor stories. Dawn Jamison, a 20-year journalist from Detroit, felt compelled to continue the important #MeToo dialogue of the movement and encourage survivors around the world to break their silence.

"Unfortunately, I've discovered that being a #MeToo author hasn't made me too popular with a lot of people," admitted Jamison, who shares abuse stories of both men and women in her new release. "Even with the epic fall of Harvey Weinstein and Bill Cosby, a lot of men still don't feel comfortable talking about all things #MeToo."

"Reckoning Day" shares riveting personal stories that likely represent thousands of untold stories of abuse and harassment. Although it's still taboo, Jamison firmly believes many families have been touched by abuse in one way or another. The book touches on child abuse, workplace harassment, marital abuse, and abuse against men among other areas.

"This book gives readers an intimate look into the harrowing experiences of sexual abuse survivors. Equally important, it provides info on how to recognize the signs of abuse," said reader Andrea Taylor, of Farmington Hills, MI. "Through Jamison's work, you will be inspired and empowered with information that will help you to avoid victimization."

In "Reckoning Day" Jamison shares three personal stories of abuse as well as an index of tips and a resource guide to help those currently living with abuse.

In Jamison's other new release, "The 8 Mistakes Women Make" she reveals eight key areas that commonly hold women back from accomplishing their life goals. Jamison's eight highlighted mistakes include: Comparing yourself to other women, the presence of toxic people and mean girl behavior. Jamison has coached dozens of women since becoming a certified life coach in 2012 and shares experiences and tools that can help provide clarity for women.

"I'm sure I won't be anybody's favorite author by writing about abuse and mistakes," Jamison said candidly. "But, I think we need to focus more on our mistakes so that we can learn from them and share our lessons with other women. I share my own mistakes, experiences of clients and other women who wish they had the tools shared in this book."

Jamison quickly admits: "I'm no therapist, rather just a journalist who has spent a lot of time interviewing women who have graciously shared their valuable life experiences."

"Dawn Jamison, with her passion for women, encourages and demands that we put our big girl pants on and take an inner look at what determines our true happiness," said A.J. Williams, City-Life-Style editor of The Michigan Chronicle.

She hopes readers will be inspired to action by her books available on Amazon. "Throughout my career, I've seen firsthand that stories have power. We must share these stories any way we can," said Jamison, who started her journalistic career at The Grand Rapids Press in Grand Rapids, MI in 1998.
