Darnella is an inspiration to people. She has gives people hope to live again & heals people. She has a 13 core principles and #5 stood out to me "I am willing to exchange my sadness for joy, confidence for insecurity and love for hate, blame resentment and anger." ABOUT DARNELLA:

Darnella is the author of five (5) bestselling novels and the recipient of the BEST NEW VOICE OF 2003. Her fifth novel, FINDING ME, was recently nominated for the 2010 STONEWALL LITERARY AWARD, one of the most prestigious literary awards in the country. Known for her ability to create “unpretentious gritty masterpieces,” Darnella has established a well-respected name for herself in the world of literature. However, in 2006, her life would profoundly change when Darnella traveled to Seattle and began a three-year course of study in Quantum Physics, Neuroscience and Neuro-Biology. Under the instruction of some of the most brilliant Physicists in the country, Darnella studied the profound world of energy/matter and how it all affects our daily lives.

Deeply inspired by the changes she made in her own life—in 2008 Darnella created & launched JOURNEY TO WORTHY, a program of inspiration designed to expand awareness & transform lives. With its genesis rooted in the science of Quantum Physics, Journey to Worthy is based upon the principles of self-love & self-worth. In essence, self-love is the cornerstone of the program. In simple terms Darnella explains, “Whenever we take a trip…we always calculate the time it takes us to get from point A to point B. Well, the longest trip I ever took was the journey to my own worthiness!”

Ingeniously, Darnella simplified the complex nature of science & began to do something unprecedented—she took Einstein’s E=MC2 to the inner city, mental health care facilities, prisons, and the classrooms of Compton. But she didn’t stop there—she also took her program to Corporate America and to the affluent. With her unique teaching style, she created compelling presentations & began to affect change and initiate healing to all those who came in contact with her message—which simply states YOU ARE WORTHY!!!

JOURNEY TO WORTHY has garnished its own share of “fans” and the people who are touched by the program are changed forever. Under the umbrella of JOURNEY TO WORTHY are multiple programs with one of its standouts—a special presentation titled “Beautiful” which has been devoted to teenage women & explores the nature of “authentic beauty” as it relates to self-esteem and self-worth. It is Darnella’s hope that a human being’s understanding of their intrinsic “worth” will be as much a part of our culture as I-Phones, I-Pads and Facebook. When all is said & done, Darnella insists that the most important aspect of JOURNEY TO WORTHY will always be “the people themselves” and to that end, “I have devoted the rest of my life to the profound knowing of truth and the ultimate experience of man’s highest potential actualized in the material world.”

Darnella battled depression & feeling worthless for years. She abused food, people, money and her beautiful body. Darnella was reckless, careless and void of integrity. She lost job after job simply because she

couldn’t get out of bed & go to work. In the mid 90’s, Darnella was diagnosed with Clinical Depression accompanied by the “lack of will to live.” With no desire for food, one day she stopped eating. Within weeks the effects were ravaging. Each morning upon dressing in the dark (as she could not stand the sight of herself), Darnella would layer her clothing, wearing 2 to 3 pair of pants & multiple shirts to “appear” larger than she was. But this illusion only lasted for so long. She was so malnourished that one afternoon she collapsed on the 24th floor of a Wilshire high rise.

Pale and void of color, Darnella was rushed to a UCLA emergency room where she was treated & medicated. Find out more about Darnella at www.journeytoworthy.org or email [email protected] let her help you heal.
