Description

Food for Thought explores how unaddressed misconceptions can shape generations through storytelling. Author Nicole Gillespie shares three glimpses of her life, chronicling her journey in stages from childhood to adulthood. She reveals how cycles of unhealthy choices were formed; each story designed to give you Food for Thought.
These 3 short chapters are each paired with a poem or two, capturing the raw emotions and thoughts she experienced in that moment. This isn’t just her story; it’s an invitation to examine your own for your next generation’s sake.

About the Author

I started writing at 11 because no one was listening.

Except God.

So, I wrote anyway.

Through the storm.

Through the silence.

Through seasons I thought would break me.

In my forties, I finally believed

those pages were meant for someone else, too.

I’m Nicole M. Gillespie, author of Transparent Moments, Mirror’s Reflection, and Food for Thought.

The 2022 Kansas City People’s Choice Award called me Best Author.

I just call myself delivered.

I write poetry and stories about breaking what we inherited

and keeping what heals us.

My grandmother gave me prayer.

It gave me my voice.
