Promoted While Broken: But Yes, That Changed Everything is the raw, unfiltered testimony of Dr. Mickke D.-a woman who battled addiction, grief, domestic abuse, and spiritual desolation... and lived to tell the story with power, grace, and victory.

Born into trauma and trapped by the grip of crack cocaine, Dr. Mickke became a mother while still enslaved to addiction. Her youngest child was born with no teeth and open sores on his face-a visible cry from the womb that something had to change. But it wasn't just the drugs. It was the shame. The broken promises. The spiritual numbness. The lies she told herself to survive.

In these pages, she doesn't hold back.

She tells the truth-the ugly, the painful, the miraculous.

She takes you into the darkest nights of addiction, including the night she hit five parked cars while high... and no one arrested her. She shares how her son-nicknamed Big Papa-became her daily reminder to stay clean. And she reveals the moment she cried out to God while holding crack cocaine in her hand, asking Him to save her in the middle of her mess.

And God did.

Not after she cleaned up.

Not after she ""got it together.""

Right there. In the addiction. In the tears. In the brokenness.

This is not a how-to book. This is a how-I-made-it book.

This story is a prophetic message of hope to every addict, every grieving parent, every woman recovering from trauma, and every loved one praying for someone to change. It reminds us that:

You can be called and still be addicted. You can be anointed and still be wounded. You can be broken... and still be promoted.

If you've ever felt like there's no way out-this book is your roadmap.

If you've ever lost a child-this book will help you breathe again.

If you're still praying for the addict you love-this book will give you hope.

And if you've ever asked, ""Can God still use me?"" the answer is not only yes... it's yes, and He will do it right where you are.

Dr. Mickke D. (Machele E. Williams) is not just a survivor-she is living proof that God promotes His children in the very places where they were once broken. Born into a life marked by addiction, trauma, and hardship, her story is one of transformation and divine redemption. Once trapped in a cycle of crack addiction, abuse, and spiritual numbness, Dr. Mickke hit rock bottom-high the night before her mother's funeral, begging God to take away her desire to use. But God didn't wait for her to get clean. He met her there, proving that His grace shows up in broken places. Her journey of healing became a mission to help others. Through raw, real testimony, she speaks for the voiceless-especially women and families bound by pain. The loss of her beloved son, Marc'Keis Jaa'Quan ""Big Papa"" Burgess, became both a wound and a fire that fuels her passion to reach the hurting. His love and memory remain a cornerstone of her message. Dr. Mickke's ministry began in secret moments-prayers over crack pipes, cries for her children-and turned into a public testimony. As a mother of eight, grandmother, and spiritual mentor, she now teaches others how to rise. Known as the ""Financial Doctor,"" she empowers people not just spiritually, but emotionally and financially, offering tools to rebuild every part of life. Her message is simple: ""If God promoted me while I was broken, He can do the same for you.""
