Debbie’s life journey from childhood trauma, love and alcohol addictions, is a tale that is interwoven with self-discovery. What makes this book so remarkable is how she took me through the insurmountable odds of defeat to rising with triumphant courage and living a life with purpose and joy. A raw look at the human spirit and the immense power we all have to make the most out of our lives.

Struck By Lightning is one of the most poignant and profound reads of our time! Rarely does one find a family who has not been struck by addiction within the family and this book will support many who take the opportunity to read it. What is most enlightening about Debbie Gill’s story is her pure and raw honesty, yet more importantly, how she overcame the darkness of addiction and into the light on the other side. She is clearly a divine example and in my opinion, this IS the book of books for addiction and how anyone can overcome it. It truly is a masterpiece, one I will be encouraging clients to read. You will not be disappointed. – Certified Life Coach

The author has created a beautifully written memoir about a woman’s personal spiritual journey that I think we can all relate to in parts. From being a small child with all her tenderness facing the sometimes sad and traumatic things we witness, then navigating our troublesome teen years and young adulthood… You’ll be rooting for the author to come to inner peace, as she does. A true heroine’s journey, showing each archetype that is active in the story along the way.

This book came to me in the most perfect timing, as we “baby boomers” are asking deeper questions and trying to look at our lives more symbolically.
Gill’s book is deeply honest, personal, humorous and helpful. I have a far better understanding now of my friends and relatives who have struggled with addiction and self-esteem issues thanks to Struck By Lightning.
Gill’s book has also given me a far better understanding of archetypes and how they influence our lives as universal patterns of influence and power.
I am not the biggest fan of self-help type books, but this is a relatable and entertaining read that left me very moved. Highly recommended.

While reading Debbie Gill’s new book I was listening to soft music in the background. Debbie is very clear about her path, and what she had to do to get to where she is today. Every page and every sentence took me deeper and deeper into my soul. She has fought her battles and won. The fact that she reached a point of surrender, and seeing the Truth… That when you surrender you become free of the illusions of your life is a gift that not many people get in their whole lifetime. This book was great to read and I highly recommend it to anyone who has or had pain in their lives (in any form) and wants to know that they CAN get through it. Debbie is proof of that.
