“More than a Conqueror” by Jackie Brown Riddick is a reminder to everyone, regardless of age, that we can overcome whatever challenges or obstacles we have. The author shares that her greatest influence in her life was her mother. She helped her process the good and bad. Jackie learned that the greatest gift of life was truly love; unpretentious, nurtured, and existing to be shared with others.
This book also reminds people to learn how to breathe so that we’re not overwhelmed by the situation, and after we take that deep breath, we can realize our worth and believe that we can overcome any situation.
Taking a pause from everything allows our thoughts to settle down and start seeing things clearly, compared to having a mind clouded with thoughts. After taking that pause, you are now ready to face those obstacles, and you will realize that you are more than a conqueror.
