Description of the Book:
 
"Sometimes You Gotta Let the Pain Out" offers a glimpse into the transformative journey of what it looks like to move beyond the symbolic acknowledgement of our cultural pain and bondages.

Lateasha "S.P.A.Z." Owens poetically guides readers through compelling narratives, ARTiculating how she put on gloves to fight for her identity to be a product of a higher frequency, not her environment. Shadow boxing and pushing through vulnerability to embrace new beginnings, while simultaneously fighting grief, generational traumas, relationship challenges and the hurdles of multiple sclerosis.

True to the acronym of her name, "S.P.A.Z.," Lateasha spreads peace, awareness, and zeal throughout the book. Using rhythmic poetic frequencies, she alchemizes pain into power. Going from feeling generationally cursed, to re-birthed. Artfully navigating the war within, Lateasha exemplifies the resilience required to transmute adversity into artistic expression and personal empowerment.
