Surviving In Plain Sight
by Dr. Sierra Slay
From the outside, Dr. Sierra Slay looked like she was strong, the kind of woman who could survive anything. And she had. Behind the smile, though, was a lifetime of secrets. She learned early that love had to be earned, that silence kept you safe.
Surviving in Plain Sight is Sierra’s unflinching memoir of the battles no one saw—and the hard-won healing that followed. Through vivid storytelling, she pulls back the curtain on the cost of keeping yourself small, the patterns that kept her stuck, and the pivotal moments that finally set her free.
This is more than a survival story. It’s a guide for anyone ready to stop hiding, reclaim their worth, and live fully, even after life has shattered them again and again.
If you’ve ever felt unseen, unheard, or unworthy, Sierra’s story will meet you where you are and help you see what’s possible on the other side of survival.
You can survive. You can heal. You can become the person you were always meant to be.
Rooted In You: A Relationship & Self-Discovery Workbook
by Dr. Sierra Slay
Life and relationships can feel like a whirlwind: friendships, family, romance, work… everyone has opinions, expectations, and “advice.” Somewhere in all that noise, it’s easy to lose sight of yourself.
Rooted in You is your guide to building relationships with others and yourself that are healthy, authentic, and aligned with your values. You’ll learn how to:
Identify your core values and what they really mean in daily life
Define your non-negotiables (and stop apologizing for them)
Trust your gut instinct before red flags become deal-breakers
Communicate clearly without the reality-TV-level drama
Spot the green flags worth investing in
Whether you’re healing from past patterns, strengthening current relationships, or just figuring out who you are and what you want, this book will help you grow deeper roots so you can stand tall in life.
Because the stronger your roots, the taller you can grow, and the less likely you are to get knocked over by someone else’s storm.
Becoming Intentional: A Self-Guided Journey to Clarity, Confidence & Growth
by Dr. Sierra Slay
We spend so much time trying to “fix” ourselves, but growth isn't about becoming someone new. It's about returning to who you've always been—before survival mode, before burnout, before the world made you feel like you had to shrink.
This workbook is here to help you:
Understand how your mindset is shaping your choices.
Set goals that align with your real values.
Build a self-care practice that feels sustainable, not forced.
Reconnect to your self-worth without guilt, pressure, or perfection.
Whether you do this all at once or one page at a time, the process is yours. Go at your own pace. Be honest with yourself. And remember: this work is not about getting it “right.” It’s about showing up for you.
