Peace, music,
and the long
walk home.
Misti Spencer writes about the hard roads and the wildflowers that grow along them. A wanderer at heart, at home in gardens, on the water, and inside a song.

Who she is
She believes the things that break us can also become the soil we grow in.
Misti is an author, speaker and advocate whose work draws from both lived experience and years spent walking alongside others through growth and life's harder transitions. She writes about trauma, healing, identity, resilience and self-discovery, weaving honesty, insight, humor and music into stories about the experiences that shape us.
She is also a wife, mother of two, dog mom, nature lover and business owner. When she is not writing, you will likely find her barefoot in a garden, paddling somewhere quiet, or following a trail with a song in her head.
Peace, love and harmony are not a slogan to Misti. They are the practice she came home to.
Her debut memoir
Trafficked and groomed as a child, Misti survived years that would have unmade most people. Her memoir is the honest account of that road and the long walk back toward light, wholeness and her own name, told through the music that carried her the whole way.
Songs you already know by heart become the keys that unlock each chapter, turning private pain into something shared, understood and, finally, survivable.
Speaking & coaching
Misti received her BS in Psychology along with her Certification in Alternative Therapies and Energy Medicine at the University of Central Florida. Go Knights! She is also a published curriculum author at the University of Central Florida, and she serves on the Advisory Board at the UCF Center for the Study of Human Trafficking and Modern Slavery as the Community Personal and Professional Development Expert.
For thirty years she has helped people reach their personal and professional goals, drawing on deep experience in behavioral and alternative therapies, life skills coaching, management, business development, sales, training, public speaking, event organizing, hosting and promotions.
Her goal is to help you in your pursuit of clarity, calm, success and wellness through strategic planning, goal setting and accountability.
Her world
Recovery was never one big moment. It was a thousand small returns to the things that make her feel alive.
Slow mornings walking gardens, learning the names of things that bloom.
Paddle-boarding and kayaking the quiet springs, where the noise finally stops.
Long walks under live oaks, one foot in front of the other, again and again.
The thread through everything. The language her healing learned to speak.
A daily practice of softness, gratitude and staying open to wonder.
Advocacy and survivor-informed work, turning her story into a hand held out.
Her words
Make Decisions That Benefit Your Dreams.
