Haitian-American Author Cindy Similien-Johnson Releases Second Book To Help Young Adult Women Discover and Fulfill Their Purpose

 


Haitian-American Author Cindy Similien-Johnson  has announced the release of the second edition of her book, "Goal Chic: Changing the World, One Goal at a Time," a guide that empowers young adult women to discover their purpose, understand their worth and value, and create purposeful goals.

Ms. Similien-Johnson, a native of Brooklyn, NY and the daughter of Haitian parents, once suffered from low self-esteem and depression. She attributes her success in overcoming obstacles and challenges to her faith in God and the support of  family and friends.

She said, "If a woman doesn't know who she is, life can be a real struggle. But, once a person has a full understanding of her purpose - the reason why she exists,  she will not make poor and negative decisions. I wrote this book to help other women to not make the same mistakes I did.  I want them to understand they have worth and value, and they can make positive changes in their community and around the world through their gifts and talents."

As an alumna of Barnard College of Columbia University, Ms. Similien-Johnson is the first person in her family to graduate from college. In 2014, she founded CSJ Media Publishing as a platform to inspire, encourage, and empower others through her positive messages. Her first book, "How to Stay Motivated: Inspiration and Advice for Everyday Living" was written as a way to cope with the unexpected death of her friend. The book deals with 12 ways in which one can remain positive in everyday life.
On Saturday, May 16, 2015, Ms. Similien-Johnson, along with three other young women, including Ms. Shanay Freeman, Ms. Tanequa Strong, and Ms. Desiree Elleston, will also be honored at the "Young Adult Women's Empowerment & Achievement Brunch" hosted by "On This Journe(y)," an organization founded by Ms. Sharice S. Simpson, a native of Jamaica, Queens, NY. The event will be held at 169-29 144th Road, Jamaica, NY 11434 at 11am. The Keynote Speaker will be Ms. Susann Sanders, the founder of "Far More Precious Than Jewels," a safe space for Christian wives to support each other.

Ms. Simpson said, "We have a wonderful program planned for Saturday's Empowerment & Achievement Brunch. We will honor and celebrate four phenomenal and very deserving young women for their achievements thus far. They exemplify the mission of  'On This Journe(y)' which is to inspire, encourage, and empower young adult women on the journey towards healing and restoration at all cost.  I have a great team who helps me bring this vision into fruition. They are Aleesha Chambers, Tamara Jordan, Stacy Robinson, and Stacey Lawley. Together, we've created an organization that is a safe haven for young adult women who oftentimes deal with real life issues, and help them overcome...at all costs."
