How I Found My Way from Resentment to Reconciliation After Heartbreak
At age thirty-seven, Margaret’s world crashed and, a seed of resentment, neutered by faith, drew her into an abyss of darkness, gloom, and chaos. She had been blindsided by a harsh, cruel reality. Her husband of twelve years no longer desired to be married to her. Margaret wrestled with marital disillusionment and waning self-confidence to determine a means of reckoning with both. My Beloved Journey: Faith, Family, Fortitude takes the reader through the valley of my sojourn.

I'm Dr. Margaret J. Matson Norris, and this is my story.
I am a divorced mother of three sons, motivational speaker, and educational consultant. I am committed to fighting for social justice, breaking barriers of systemic racism, and building bridges of peace and unity.
My expertise stems from personal and professional experiences, having raised my sons from boys to men during the turbulent drug war years of the 1980’s and 1990’s while working as an educator and community servant.
Spanning a career of over forty-five years, I have mediated conflicts between gang members, consoled families victimized by violence, and have designed curriculum and taught classes in violence prevention, intervention, and rehabilitation to men incarcerated in federal and state penitentiaries, county jails, and youth in the juvenile justice system.
“A fire burned inside my soul, urging me to change the wrongs and make
things right.”
