Still Here

Sometimes survival looks like silence. Sometimes healing sounds like your own name whispered back to you.

Jaslyn is a mother, a wife, a believer-and a woman quietly unraveling. She's spent a lifetime pouring into others, chasing purpose, and holding it all together while secretly coming undone. But when life presses too hard, and the quiet starts to echo, she realizes that being strong has cost her something sacred: herself.

Still Here: A Novel of Quiet Survival is a soul-stirring, emotionally raw journey through faith, identity, motherhood, and rediscovery. With graceful storytelling and deeply relatable moments, Ericka Broaddus Johnson invites readers into the life of a woman learning how to reclaim her voice after years of muting her own needs.

This novel is for:

• The woman who is always "fine"-but knows she's not.
• The mother trying to hold it all together.
• The dreamer who forgot she was allowed to have dreams.
• The faithful heart walking through quiet valleys.

If you've ever wrestled with self-worth, exhaustion, fear, or the weight of everyone else's expectations-Still Here will feel like a mirror and a friend. Powerful, poetic, and full of light, it's more than a novel. It's a reminder:
