The Crown Was Mine All Along (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798274131445)

The Crown Was Mine All Along

A soft but mighty nod to reclaiming your identity, your joy, and your purpose. Inspired by the line "your anointing smells like smoke and sandalwood," this collection is for the soul who gave grace to everyone else-until they finally gave it to themselves. The one who survived the fire and emerged holy, whole, and healed-with poetry as the offering.

The Crown Was Mine All Along is not just a book-it's a reckoning, a reclaiming, and a return to self.
Dr. Shaniqua Jones, the global Restorative Justice thought leader known for blending truth-telling with tenderness, invites you into a sacred space where healing meets poetry and purpose meets power.

Through raw reflection and fire-laced prose, this collection chronicles the journey of a woman who survived the burn of betrayal, the weight of expectation, and the silence of self-abandonment-only to rise whole, holy, and unapologetically crowned.

Inspired by the line, "your anointing smells like smoke and sandalwood," these pages are for the soul who's done the work in the dark and is finally ready to shine.
This is your invitation to rest, reclaim, and remember:
You were never lost.
You were becoming.
