Beyond Surviving: Living to Thrive is a way of life for Dr. Bettina Polite Tate. Throughout her life, Dr. Polite Tate survived major losses, heartbreaks, disappointments, the premature deaths of her mother, sister, nephew and other close loved ones, health issues, and divorce. She also survived various abusive relationships in her personal and professional life. In 2018, Dr. Polite Tate and her children survived a vicious attack from a trespasser to their home. As a habitual survivor, Dr. Polite Tate knows that there is more to life than just surviving. She often says that surviving is necessary but living to thrive is a must! In this book, Dr. Polite Tate shares devotions, inspirations, stories, and prayers to encourage other survivors to make the choice to move beyond surviving and live to thrive.
