Author of Brokenness to Breakthrough
In addition to her consulting and leadership roles, Vikita is the author of Brokenness to Breakthrough—a powerful and deeply personal account of perseverance, pain, and purpose.

This transformational book tells Vikita’s story of navigating trauma, loss, and spiritual battles—including the tragic loss of her mother during her first pregnancy and the challenges of raising a child with a dire medical prognosis. Rather than succumbing to despair, she chose grace, humility, and unshakable faith to rise above her circumstances.

Brokenness to Breakthrough is more than a memoir—it's a ministry-in-motion. Through this book, Vikita hopes to inspire others to confront their own pain, stand tall in their truth, and recognize that the pathway to power often begins in the darkest of valleys. The book serves as a launching point for speaking engagements, a faith-based movement, TED Talks, and future television and podcast appearances.
