In her new memoir, What On Earth Are We Doing?, author Allison Shawn delivers a raw and restorative message of faith for the brokenhearted. Published by USA Book Publishers, the book chronicles Shawn’s extraordinary journey through suffering, surrender, and seven life-changing decisions that became the framework of her healing.
After a life-threatening accident, a failing marriage, and a series of devastating health battles, Shawn found herself broken—physically, emotionally, and spiritually. Yet she chose to rise. Her story is not a traditional self-help book but a memoir that resonates with anyone struggling and looking for real hope and real faith for real life.
“I didn’t write this to preach,” Shawn says. “I wrote it as encouragement, that as long as you are still breathing, then God has a purpose and good plans for you, if you choose to accept His invitation.”
The book invites readers of all backgrounds to examine their own crossroads and reimagine how trials can shape legacy and purpose. It also introduces Shawn’s concept of being F.I.T. for Real Life™—living with Faith, Integrity, and Trust. This framework offers a practical approach to rebuilding after adversity, making the memoir both inspirational and actionable.
Shawn’s willingness to share her most vulnerable moments provides a beacon of hope for others facing similar struggles. Her message is particularly timely as many individuals grapple with personal and societal challenges. By emphasizing faith as a foundation for rebuilding, she offers an alternative to despair and a path toward restoration.
The memoir is available on Amazon and other major platforms. Allison also offers mentoring and faith-based resources through her website. For more information or to request interviews, visit www.allisonshawn.net.
