There comes a time in every woman’s life when she looks around at the fragments of her story the pain, the silence, the performance, the shame and wonders if this is all there is?

But what if the story isn’t over? What if the place where you've been buried is not your final chapter, but the very ground where resurrection begins?

Daughter, Arise is a call to rise from the ashes of everything that was meant to destroy you trauma, culture, silence, survival and step into the life your Creator always had in mind.

It’s not a self-help manual or a self-love bandage. It’s a deep, divine invitation to return to the One who knew your name before you were ever wounded. The One who still speaks life over dead places. The One who still takes little girls by the hand and says, “Talitha koum.”

With prophetic boldness and tender truth, author Nontobeko Kolstad walks with you through the war zones of womanhood—unpacking the wounds we carry, the lies we've believed, the scriptures that were twisted, and the power we've forgotten. From the quiet ache of comparison to the loud trauma of abuse, from purity culture to performative feminism, from distorted theology to divine identity—this book leaves no stone unturned.

But it doesn't stop with pain , but it leads you through it and out.

This book is for the woman who has lost her voice, lost her way, or lost her hope. It’s for the one who has been performing to be accepted, surviving to be safe, or hiding just to be loved. It’s for the one who still believes somewhere deep down that there must be more. And there is. This is the moment where Jesus leans in and says: “Get up, daughter. I’m not done with you yet.”
