Survival Mode: A testimony disguised as a book.

By Tatiana Monique

Survival Mode is a powerful, faith-centered memoir that explores what it means to live through life while quietly carrying more than anyone can see.

This is not just a story-it is a lived experience.

Through real-life moments of trauma, relationships, perception, and personal growth, Shaquina Reese takes readers on a journey from childhood experiences to adulthood, revealing how unprocessed pain, silent expectations, and the weight of other people's opinions can shape the way a person lives, loves, and survives.

From navigating false narratives and broken relationships to building a marriage rooted in purpose and covenant, this book pulls back the curtain on what survival mode really looks like-especially when it doesn't appear as struggle on the outside, but strength.

With honesty, reflection, and faith woven throughout, Survival Mode challenges readers to recognize what they've been carrying, question what was never theirs to hold, and begin the process of unlearning survival as a lifestyle.

This is a story of:

enduring what should have broken youcarrying what was never yoursredefining love, identity, and truthand discovering that survival was never meant to be permanent

For anyone who has ever had to hold it together while falling apart, this book offers both recognition and release.

Because at its core...
this is not just about survival.

It's about healing.
It's about growth.
It's about finally learning how to live.
