That training carried into adulthood, into a marriage marked by control and violence, into a church that demanded silence, and into a courtroom where truth was twisted beyond recognition. When she finally broke free, she paid the ultimate price: her children were stripped from her, her reputation destroyed, and her identity erased.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnd yet - she refused to disappear.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith a voice equal parts sharp, sarcastic, and deeply vulnerable, Katie tells her story not as a victim, but as a survivor. From purple-stained potatoes to custody battles that felt like war, from teenage scars to spiritual awakenings, from losing everything to building a love-filled life with her husband Ken, she reveals what it means to fall apart and rebuild stronger, louder, and unapologetically.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eMy Own Damn Table\u003c\/em\u003e is more than a memoir. It is a manifesto for anyone who has ever been scapegoated, silenced, or shamed into believing they don't matter. Katie's story is a reminder that healing is messy but possible, that laughter can coexist with pain, and that sometimes the bravest thing you can do is build your own damn table and decide who gets a seat.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePowerful, heartbreaking, and defiantly hopeful, this memoir is for survivors, seekers, truth-tellers - and anyone ready to stop begging for permission to exist. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Katie Simpson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798993149004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Ember \u0026amp; Oak Consulting LLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/07\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 78\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.26lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.16d","brand":"Katie Simpson","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48742982779135,"sku":"9798993149004","price":6.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/my-own-damn-table-katie-simpson-9798993149004","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
