Terri L Braun

As a child, Terri had always enjoyed writing as a hobby, but it wasn't until 2014 after suffering a traumatic brain injury that writing became an important part of her life. She began journaling to help in her recovery as the road back to normalcy was hard and the healing was slow. She became discouraged and lost hope when it felt she would not regain the cognitive and vestibular deficits the brain damage caused. She fell into a trap of self-pity and spiraled into a pit of despair. The next 3 years of her life she attended many different types of therapies. She also began to spend time with God daily and established a relationship with Him. With her hard work and patience, hope and progress returned which inspired her to write her first book!


In 2016, she authored a book entitled Good Morning Sunshine: Finding Strength and Comfort in God which was published in 2017. In 2018, the book Preparing Your Heart for Christmas arrived which is a compilation of Advent reflections. From these books, Terri has been invited to various speaking engagements regarding her life's spiritual journey of hope. She continues to write today aspiring of more creations so that others can learn of the love, healing, and guidance that He can provide.
