Marlanna J. Launches New Book ‘Riding the Waves: When Challenges Come Our Way’

March 12th, 2025 ~  Atlanta, Ga.

At a time of year where people are feeling added anxiety, depression and the loneliness that comes from all of the usual holiday pressures, Atlanta based media personality Marlanna J. releases a new book on how to claim, and re-claim, one’s self-esteem based on reflections about her life’s journey.

The longtime Atlanta media personality and Publicist has tackled this issue as someone who has worked with top professionals in government, sports, and entertainment industries where one wears masks to hide real life issues that we all deal with that breakdown our joy and self-esteem.

Marlanna J. states “My hope is that by reading Riding the Waves: When Challenges Come Our Way, the reader will reflect on building their self-esteem and self-worth no matter the circumstances of the experiences in life. In reflecting my past experiences of pain, disappointment, reward, and victories my self-esteem grew independent of others' views. This book is to assist those who may be struggling to sustain in life. We have evolved over the centuries and our survival depends on being included in a group of people, it is the connectivity with others which keeps a sense of belonging necessary as human beings.“

Although all the effects on self-esteem can be explained scientifically, my awakened relationship to God and the source of inner power to understand greater strength within myself has brought me to a place of knowledge of who I was created to be and my prayer is that this book will assist others in seeing that same power within themselves as they journal after each chapter and build their faith and belief in the Greater power of God as the healer and redeemer, while becoming more resilient as well as victorious in life. 

As Host of her ‘The Marlanna J. Today Show‘ a podcast that is designed to not only entertain her audience, but to motivate and inspire as well utilizing her years of experience as an executive in the business and entertainment industry, Marlanna shares information about community and social matters that impact our lives.

’Riding the Waves: When Challenges Come Our Way’ is very much in keeping with what her mission has been, to empower people.
