About Author

Katrina Parks is a former political leader, public speaker, and author who shares her transformative journey in Bouncing Back Better. With an MBA from Georgia Tech and years of experience working in high-level government positions, she once thrived in a fast-paced world of influence and decision-making.

However, Katrina’s life took an unexpected turn when she was sentenced to 21 months in federal prison. Stripped of everything she knew—her title, career, and freedom—she faced the most challenging period of her life. But instead of letting adversity define her, she turned it into a powerful story of growth, faith, and resilience.

While incarcerated, Katrina found a new purpose in mentoring and uplifting others, teaching women inside prison valuable life and professional skills. Her story is not just about bouncing back but bouncing back better redefining herself, rebuilding her future, and inspiring others to do the same.
