About The Book

In this soul-stirring collection, Lorna Owens invites women on a journey of healing, reflection, and reclamation. Becoming Whole: Letters to the Woman I Am is a deeply personal and poetic offering-an intimate conversation with the self.


Through heartfelt letters written from one woman to another, Owens explores love and loss, purpose and pain, courage and coming home to yourself. With each letter, she beckons readers to pause, sip, breathe, and listen to the wisdom already within. Whether you are grieving, growing, or simply longing to reconnect with your truth, this book is a tender companion along the path.
Rooted in ritual, grounded in grace, and steeped in the beauty of tea and self-communion, Becoming Whole is more than a book-it is a mirror, a balm, and a call to rise.



About The Author

Lorna Owens is an author, registered nurse, midwife, attorney, and international speaker who has presented in over 24 countries around the world. Her work is grounded in the intersection of storytelling, womanhood, and personal transformation.
Drawing from a multidisciplinary background in healthcare, law, and global advocacy, Owens brings a distinct perspective to contemporary literature - one that bridges intellect, compassion, and the human condition. Her work often centers on the resilience of women and the power of self-reclamation.
In addition to her writing, she is the founder of Desert Sage Lifestyle Wellness and the Footprints Foundation, through which she supports maternal health initiatives, including scholarships for women in Sub-Saharan Africa to train as midwives.
Owens is also the creator and host of "And the Women Gather," a literary and cultural experience that brings together authors and audiences in dialogue around storytelling, identity, and community.
