    A shattered mirror. A silenced voice. A woman’s fight to reclaim her truth. 
    The Mirror Memoir: With Deep Reflections is the unflinching true story of Samantha Jo Folio; a journey through abuse, betrayal, workplace harassment, and spiritual warfare. What could have broken her instead became the fire that forged her voice. 
    From small-town Appalachia to the isolating glow of work-from-home call centers, Samantha’s path is marked by heartbreak and injustice, but also by resilience, faith, and divine encounters that could not be silenced. She survived toxic workplaces, online harassment, and the crushing weight of being targeted for speaking out. Through it all, she found power in ritual, strength in faith, and truth in the mirror that became her sacred altar. 
    This is more than a memoir, it is a testimony. For every survivor who has doubted their worth, every whistleblower who has wondered if the fight was worth it, and every seeker standing at the edge of despair and transformation, this story is for you. 
    Inside, you’ll hear:An intimate look at corporate retaliation and discrimination.The emotional toll of targeted harassment and intimidation.A survivor’s honest account of loss, faith, and reclamation.Real-life spiritual experiences that blur the line between the visible and unseen. 
    If you’ve ever faced injustice and felt invisible, The Mirror Memoir will remind you: your voice is power, your truth is sacred, and your reflection still shines—even when the mirror is cracked.

    In the treacherous corridors of 8th-century Constantinople, where power is won through cunning and ambition, a young woman is destined to shape the fate of an empire. 
    Seventeen-year-old Thekla, fierce and relentless, has been abandoned at the altar for the third time. Determined to reclaim her betrothed—or make him pay—she sets out for the imperial capital, armed only with her wits and her blade. But Constantinople is no place for the faint-hearted. Here, intrigue and betrayal lurk in every shadow, and survival demands more than mere determination. 
    Amidst the dazzling splendor of the Byzantine court, Thekla crosses paths with Irini of Athens—a strikingly beautiful orphan plucked from obscurity to wed Co-Emperor Leon, son of the ruthless Constantine. But Irini is no mere pawn. Beneath her delicate exterior lies an unyielding will and an insatiable hunger for power. 
    As Thekla and Irini forge an uneasy alliance, the city erupts with unrest, torn apart by religious conflict and political machinations. In this volatile world of shifting loyalties, ambition can be a weapon, and trust can be fatal. Will Thekla become Irini’s greatest ally—or her most dangerous rival?
