Main profile

Author Profile: 

Darah is the devoted mom of five and wife of one. When she’s not mothering or “wife‐ing,” she’s an author, inspiring speaker, life COPING coach, group facilitator and suicide prevention activist.

Her highly-acclaimed debut memoir, Girl with the Crooked Smile – Stuck in a Moment, is a story that reveals what it really takes to weather life’s storms. It resonates with anyone who has had to muster up the courage and find the faith to press on through hard times.

**In her free time, when she's not tethered to the washing machine, Darah enjoys exercising outside, good music, hot coffee and watching her precocious children negotiate treaties with one another.

And, depending on her mood de jour, you’ll usually find Darah swinging wildly between the frivolous and the philosophical. Connect with her on Facebook, Twitter  @darahzeledon or on her website: http://DarahZeledon.com.

Weekend mornings when I'm well-rested and have nowhere to rush off to.
