Still Standing

A Cowgirl's Recovery from PTSD

By: Marci Powell

Narrated by: Ann Hathaway

Still Standing is a true story of faith, grit, and the will to rise again.

When her horse bucked her off at a rodeo, professional barrel racer Marci Powell shattered her neck and back in two places — injuries so severe doctors warned she might never walk again, let alone ride.

But Marci’s story didn’t end in that arena. Through pain, fear, and the silent battles of PTSD, she learned that standing again isn’t about perfection — it’s about persistence.

This book is for anyone who’s been broken — by trauma, by loss, by life itself — and is trying to find their way back. With honesty and heart, Marci shares her journey from hospital beds to the saddle again, showing that healing isn’t fast, pretty, or easy… but it’s possible.

If you’ve ever been knocked down by life — this is your reminder that you can still rise.
