About The Book
Make Me New
Dr. Denise Chatam Walker’s highly anticipated third book, Make Me New: Rising to What’s Possible, will be published on January 2, 2026, and will be available through Amazon, Barnes & Noble and other book stores and online outlets.
This book begins in the moment you never see coming—the moment you hear the word cancer and everything you thought you understood about life, certainty, and control starts to unravel. With honesty and grace, Dr. Walker shares a deeply personal account of her cancer journey, including the unexpected twists, quiet struggles, and realities no one prepares you for—the parts of being human that become especially complex when life suddenly changes course.

About The Author
Denise Walker
Her work centers on helping people navigate life’s most disruptive moments and emerge with clarity, strength, and renewed purpose.
After walking through her own life-altering health journey, Dr. Walker began writing not just to inform, but to accompany others through uncertainty, loss, and transformation. Blending personal insight with practical wisdom, her words speak to the quiet questions that surface when life changes suddenly—and offer readers permission to slow down, reflect honestly, and move from survival to wholeness, and from fear to possibility.
Why I Wrote This Book
If you’re considering this book, you may be standing in a moment you didn’t expect.
Maybe you’ve recently heard the word cancer, or you’re walking beside someone who has. Maybe life shifted through illness, loss, burnout, or an unexpected change that left you feeling unsteady. Or maybe nothing dramatic happened—yet something inside you knows the way things were no longer fits.
I wrote Make Me New: Rising to What’s Possible for moments like this.
