LISTEN: Town Talk/Author Tonia Garnett

Tonia Garnett’s memoir tells the deeply personal story of her journey through abuse, addiction, and incarceration—and the difficult work of rebuilding her life afterward. Through honest reflection, Garnett shares the challenges she faced, the turning points that helped change her path, and the resilience it took to move forward. In the introduction, she writes that the title is “both a declaration and a surrender,” adding that the book is not meant to be skimmed.  She says the book traces the hills and valleys of life. The memoir is currently available through her website at toniatalksnow.com.
