Seed Into Flower: Growth and Renewal in Difficult Times
Pushed to her limits by a diagnosis of and treatment for breast cancer in her fifties, Katherine Davis relives the lymphatic cancer and emotional abuse that almost killed her in her teens. She emerges stronger and more determined than ever, confident in her identity and convinced of her purpose: to transcend her suffering in communicating her story and validating the stories of others who have also suffered. She offers living proof that with work, risk, and reflection, trauma can be overcome, and the disease and dysfunction that threatens our very selfhood can become building blocks of our characters. Recovering from and rebuilding herself after devastation, Katherine Davis shows how to transform patience and perseverance into hope and celebration.

Body Slam: On Getting Up When Trauma Doubles Down
Katherine Davis spent seven years confronting and overcoming the physical and psychological effects of trauma. In Body Slam, she finds that instead of getting the rest she feels she needs and deserves, more trauma awaits: a diagnosis of breast cancer causes her to revisit the childhood cancer that almost killed her and the emotional abuse perpetrated by her family of origin that disabled her for decades.
Despite the intensity of these physical and psychological challenges, Katherine Davis emerges stronger and more determined than ever, to live a life full of joy and laughter. She survives because she knows she is worth the struggle and the risk, and she encourages others, even in the midst of difficulties, to believe in the purpose of their journey.

When I started writing these works, I realized I had a story to tell but didn’t know what that story was. My publications trace my growing awareness that I suffered from emotional abuse and medical trauma. The truth of my experience was ignored and denied by my family of origin and by the medical and psychological professionals I turned to for help.
My body of work, indeed, is about a body and a mind grappling with the unspeakable and using language to bring light and meaning to darkness and chaos. It tells the story of my journey to rediscover myself, my passions, and my abilities, and to find connections along the way with like-minded and affirming individuals.
