DOWNLOAD EBOOK →My name is Terry-Ann Allen, and I’ve finally came to the realization that I am a precious daughter in the sight of God, one who truly matters and has a powerful purpose in the kingdom of Christ to shake hell of it's tail. How was I to know this, when I saw myself as the total opposite? Well, it was through the most shattering and discouraging moments of my life, such as close to death sickness, painful heartbreak, humiliation, being despised and rejected. Also, I was often looked on as the black sheep because of my mistakes... but it was during these turbulent moments of my life, where I realized that God was using my rich pain to fuel my rich testimony and purposeful ministry in him to help others out of the same pit of self-doubt, hopelessness, that I was in. God has turned my mess into a message, I am a product of his grace and I’m thankful to him for it all. I'm ROYALTY and my father is king. “A Caterpillar doesn’t become a butterfly overnight, the caterpillar has to undergo a process of metamorphism in order to become that beautiful butterfly”

Triggered first by a near-fatal car accident that sent her 100-lb body flying from a crosswalk and later by a painful Lupus diagnosis, she became stuck in a season of brokenness.But in the seasons that followed, an insatiable emotional, spiritual, and physical hunger took over: She learned how to nourish her broken body with the help of food, herbs, and a gastronomically-gifted Italian grandmother, while also nourishing her broken heart and crushed spirit through a deeper relationship with God.With Chronically Fabulous, Marisa fulfills the old woman's prophecy by offering pure nourishment to those of us living with chronic illness, helping us create wholeness and well-being through a love of food. Here, the founder of LupusChick, a nonprofit supporting those with autoimmune diseases, offers guiding principles, personal stories, and recipes that support whole-life thriving. With the depth, smarts, and spiritual advice beloved by her dedicated followers, Marisa shows us how faith, passion, and persistence can radically change our lives.
