My Book on Oct 13, 2026

Hello Family!!! My Book Living Life Lessons- Fully Engaged will be published after a year of writing staying up day in and day out!!! It was well worth it! Only on Amazon!

Living Life Lessons: Fully Engaged

More Than a Memoir, It’s an Invitation

As I wrote Living Life Lessons: Fully Engaged, I realized that many of the answers I was searching for had been with me all along. They were hidden in the streets I lived on, the people I loved, the challenges I faced, and the lessons God was teaching me along the way.

This book is more than a collection of memories. It is an invitation for you to look back over your own life and discover what your experiences reveal about who you are.

What did you love as a child?

What challenges made you stronger?

What lessons has God been trying to teach you?

Sometimes the key to understanding ourselves is found in the memories we’ve forgotten to revisit.

My hope is that as you journey with me through Knodell, Pelkey, Mapleview, Cadieux, Lanark, Atlanta, Antietam, Rehabilitation, Millionaires Row, and Nesha, you will also reflect on your own journey and the life lessons that have shaped you.

Every experience has a lesson.

Every lesson has a purpose.

And every chapter of our lives matters.

With love,

La’Crease Jaquin Walker 💜📖

Coming Soon – My Book Teaser

Before I say anything else… I want to speak from the quiet place in me that remembers how faithfully God carried me while I wrote this book. This isn’t just a book. This isn’t just a project. This is a piece of my heart I never thought I’d share.

There were nights I cried writing these chapters. Moments I had to stop because the memories were too loud. Pages where I had to ask God, “Why do I have to tell this?” And every time, He answered the same way:

“Because somebody needs to see what I did for you.”

So today… I’m opening the door gently. Not with excitement — but with gratitude. Not with fanfare — but with reverence. Not with confidence — but with the quiet strength God gave me when I didn’t have any of my own.

This month, I’m sharing pieces of the journey that shaped me. The moments that broke me. The lessons that rebuilt me. The truth that freed me. And the God who held me through all of it.

I’m not revealing the title yet. I’m not revealing the cover. But I am revealing my heart.

Stay close. Walk with me. Feel this with me. Because these stories… are the ones God refused to let me bury.

In Jesus’ name, Amen.

“What I survived became what I wrote.”

It’s been a minute

Hey y’all! I had to drop by to say that all is well with me. I’m putting the final touches on my book. It’s filled with the Life Lessons I’ve journaled over the years, and let me tell you… it is sooooooo good!

It’s 50 stories plus reflection questions for you to answer as you mirror your own life. Oh no, it’s not just about reading about me — it’s about discovering YOU!

My hope and prayer is that you learn some life lessons just as I did. I CAN’T WAIT!!!

My book is about learning, healing, and growing through God’s lessons.

My book is a collection of real‑life stories, spiritual lessons, and personal experiences that shaped who I am as a woman from Detroit. It’s about the moments God used to teach me, correct me, strengthen me, and grow me — even when I didn’t understand it at the time. I write openly about fear, faith, family, friendships, dreams, and the quiet ways God speaks through everyday life. Each chapter is a lesson wrapped in a story: the things I survived, the things I learned, and the things I had to let go of. It’s honest, emotional, and rooted in the belief that God wastes nothing — not our pain, not our mistakes, not our victories. Through my writing, I want readers to see themselves, reflect on their own journeys, and realize that God is always teaching, guiding, and preparing us for something greater. This book is my testimony, my healing, and my offering to anyone who needs encouragement, clarity, or a reminder that they’re not walking alone.

How do you handle fear and self-doubt?

I sit back and ask myself, What is causing the fear and doubt? I ask myself questions to understand how I’m feeling and what I can do to get through it after I’ve prayed.

I’ve always had a fear of going to the dentist. I had to identify the fear: I hate the atmosphere of walking into the building, signing in, and answering all the questions. That alone gave me anxiety. After the paperwork is done, I sit and look around at each person, wondering what they’re here for. Then I analyze how calm they look. They seem unbothered, like this is nothing to them — when they could be nervous too.

I focus on being called to the back, sitting in the chair, and answering even more questions. Then I remind myself, Okay, you need this done. Think about all the people who came before you and DID IT. That’s how I handle fear and self‑doubt.

I think about what has to be done, calm myself down, get out of my own head, focus on the outcome — and then it’s OVER.

The first thing I do is identify my fear and my self‑doubt. It works for me every time.

“Recharged, Refocused, and Ready to Write Again”

It’s been a while since I’ve been blogging, and I truly miss it when I’m gone. Writing a book really does take time, but dang — I didn’t have to walk away from blogging. Blogging helps me get my groove back when I don’t feel like writing.

I was at my daughter’s house for three weeks. We have so much fun together. There’s plenty of room for us to spread out, and we both love our together time just as much as we love our time apart. Plus, I get to be with my grand‑dog, Brendan. I love him so much it’s crazy — and he loves me too. Dearly. God blessed me to spend that time with him.

My daughter always said if she doesn’t have a husband, she won’t have kids — and she meant that. So her focus is her job and going back to school. Having a dog for a grandson is EVEN BETTER FOR ME, especially with the way teens and kids are taking such a hit in life these days. It saddens me to see all that’s going on.

Then when it’s time to come home to my lovely place — still don’t have furniture yet — but this place is going to be so beautiful when I do. The way it’s made and built is exactly what I asked God for.

I made me and Nesha a candle, and I finally, FINALLY found the perfect double‑wick candle I’ve been looking for. I believe in finding the perfect wick for the jars I choose. It’s a black 10 oz candle, and it’s going to sell well. I’m thinking of pairing the book with that candle — so people can enjoy the book while lighting it. I’m excited for what’s to come.

I’m back, family, and I’ll chat with y’all tomorrow.

When are you most happy?

Happiness doesn’t always come from big moments. For me, it’s found in the everyday spaces where love, laughter, and peace live.

I’m at my happiest when I’m with my family. We have so much fun together—real, belly-deep laughter that fills the room and reminds me how blessed I am. I love watching the kids, too. They’re growing up so fast, and every time I look at them, I’m amazed at how much they’ve changed and who they’re becoming.

I also enjoy spending weeks with my daughter and my granddog Brendan, just enjoying each other’s company. Those days are full of simple routines, shared meals, quiet moments, and the kind of comfort that only comes from being around people (and pets) who know your heart.

But I’ve learned to enjoy my quiet moments too. There’s something special about going to the park alone, sitting with my thoughts, and just letting life settle around me. Those moments of stillness help me breathe, reflect, and reconnect with myself.

And of course, there are the things that bring me joy in the simplest ways—writing, watching the Lions play, taking a drive downtown, and just relaxing. I don’t need much. I’m a simple person, and I’m grateful for the things that make my life feel full.

Sometimes happiness is just that: being present, being grateful, and enjoying the people and moments that make life feel good.
