Hello, I’m Dr. Teresa A. Smith, known to many as Dr. TAS. As an author, coach, and speaker, I’ve dedicated my life to empowering others to overcome adversity and embrace personal growth through faith. Today, in celebration of I Love To Write Day, I want to share how my books offer tools to help you on your own journey of transformation. Each of my books provides practical steps, encouragement, and faith-based guidance, equipping you to navigate life’s challenges and live with purpose. Let’s explore how these resources can inspire and support your path to personal transformation.
Stronger with Dr. Teresa A. Smith: Transforming Adversity
My debut book, Stronger: How Overcoming Life’s Adversities Can Push You Into Your Purpose, reflects the core of my mission: helping others transform hardship into purpose. In Stronger, I share my personal story of navigating childhood abuse, bullying, and health challenges. But instead of letting these experiences define me, I chose to use them as fuel for growth.
Romans 8:28 ESV says, “And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose.” This powerful verse is a reminder that even our struggles serve a purpose. Every hardship can bring us closer to our true calling if we approach it with faith and resilience. Stronger is a guide to building that resilience, helping you discover strength you may not realize you have, so you can move confidently toward your life’s purpose.
From Bravery to Victory: Harnessing Faith in Tough Times
When facing adversity, fear can make us feel stuck or unable to move forward. From Bravery to Victory is a book I wish I’d had during my toughest times, when fear felt overwhelming. This book provides a roadmap for anyone needing guidance to move through challenges with faith and bravery, even when life feels insurmountable.
As Proverbs 3:5-6 GNT reminds us, “Trust in the Lord with all your heart. Never rely on what you think you know. Remember the Lord in everything you do, and he will show you the right way.” From Bravery to Victory encourages you to lean into faith and trust God’s plan, especially during difficult times. By focusing on these principles, you can turn fear into faith and find victory through adversity. This book shows you how to tap into the bravery you already have to push forward, no matter the challenges you face.
Dr. Teresa A. Smith’s Transformation: Your Bounce Back
In Transformation: The Bounce Back, I share one of the most transformative moments of my life, a sudden illness that forced me to re-evaluate my identity and purpose. After facing health struggles that brought my life to a standstill, I chose to embark on a journey of personal rediscovery and resilience. This book offers insights and actionable steps to help you reclaim your life, no matter where you find yourself.
2 Corinthians 5:17 ERV says, “When anyone is in Christ, it is a whole new world. The old things are gone; suddenly, everything is new!” This scripture captures the essence of The Bounce Back—you are not defined by your past but by how you rise from it. This book will guide you in letting go of the old and embracing the new, helping you take control of your life and rediscover your true purpose.
Healthy Recipes with Dr. Teresa A. Smith: Fuel for Growth
Transformation isn’t complete without taking care of your physical health. After undergoing gastric sleeve surgery, I committed to a healthier lifestyle, which led to my cookbook, Transform with TAS Healthy Recipes. This collection of protein-packed, nutritious recipes offers delicious options for anyone seeking to prioritize health. As a Southern cook, I know the importance of flavorful meals, and I’ve modified my favorites to support a healthier lifestyle.
1 Corinthians 6:19-20 MEV us, “…Do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God, and that you are not your own? You were bought with a price. Therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s.”
By caring for our bodies, we honor the gift of health. This cookbook is designed to make healthy eating enjoyable and sustainable, empowering you to fuel your transformation journey with nourishing meals.
Empower Your Journey with Dr. Teresa A. Smith: 31-Day Meditation
Transformation begins in the mind, which is why I wrote Empower Your Journey: 31-Day Meditation. This devotional guide provides daily affirmations, reflections, and self-care practices to help you develop a positive mindset and strengthen emotional resilience. Each day, you’ll focus on becoming your best self, using the power of faith and positive thinking.
Romans 12:2 GW encourages us, “Don’t become like the people of this world. Instead, change the way you think. Then you will always be able to determine what God really wants—what is good, pleasing, and perfect.” Empower Your Journey aims to guide you in this daily renewal, helping you embrace positivity and resilience. This month-long journey invites you to reflect, recharge, and prioritize your mental and spiritual well-being, so you can tackle life’s challenges with a refreshed and empowered outlook.
Transformation Workbook: Your Path to Personal Growth
For those who prefer hands-on tools, my Transformation Workbook offers a structured approach to personal growth. This workbook is designed for self-reflection, helping you overcome internal struggles, set clear goals, and create a roadmap to success.
Unlike a standard self-help book, the workbook format lets you interact with each lesson, customizing exercises to fit your unique journey. This approach supports your progress one step at a time, allowing you to experience true growth without pressure for perfection. Transformation is a gradual process, and this workbook will encourage you to build resilience, find purpose, and stay committed to your path forward.
