Beautiful poems of overcoming PTSD and military sexual trauma to rediscover potential. These poems beautifully demonstrate the strength, and resilience into healing and hope. Thank you for producing this book! My favorite lines which inspire me are:
Fong (2021) “It is never to late to step into your power. To embrace yourself. To be you and the best version of you.” (p.50)

I believe we all have a knot, an internal response to things that happen to us or around us. In Knot Redefined, Naomi Fong recognizes her own knots, embraces the challenges they offer, and stands resolute to travel beyond their limiting forces. Naomi echoes mankind’s own search for the meaning of life, exploring how suffering can enrich life. A wonderful sharing of fragility and strength which challenges us to face and redefine our own knots. A deeply probing read.

It takes a special person to reveal their soul in such an open manner. I have known Naomi personally for over 3-4yrs and I can attest that this book took great courage. If you suffer mental health issues, this book can help you with touching your inner self.

This book was a reminder that you can overcome anything you put your mind to. Once I started reading I couldn’t put it down. I was able to relate to the poems. It also reminded me that I am a strong, independent woman who can’t be stopped. Loved this book.

Reading it felt like sitting across from a close friend who isn’t afraid to speak from the deepest parts of themselves—with honesty and a quiet strength.
Naomi’s words are raw in the most beautiful way. She doesn’t just write poems—she reveals pieces of herself, piece by piece, knot by knot. There’s something deeply comforting in how she talks about identity, healing, and resilience that can help us grow if we let it. Her ability to turn pain into something soft and powerful is a gift, and it shines through every page.
This book is more than a collection of poems—it’s a journey, a mirror, and a reminder that we’re not alone in our struggles to redefine ourselves. I’m so proud of Naomi and beyond grateful to witness her talent. If you read Knot Redefined, prepare to feel seen, held, and quietly transformed.

When first reading Knot Redefined you can actually feel the writers emotions. But Naomi’ poetry is not just from personal experiences, these poems speak to everyone who can relate to them. At points I found myself re- reading them as at a first reading you may miss the in depth context until you think about what she is saying and that’s when you get your “ aha” moment. There is comfort in knowing that you are not alone in your own experience’s or traumas.
Peter Lawless –
An inspirational collection of poems. Naomi’s story and works are an authentic expression of a journey of recovery after trauma. Well worth the read and some reflection.
Lauralee Mills –
This book hit hard for me, it allowed myself to feel deep about my Trauma while sering in the Canadian Armed Forces. Naomi has put herself rawly out there, to share how she was on the road to recovery and healing.
The porms are so well written. Take a moment as you read each page allow it to resonate with you, to allow feelings. This book is so well put together and I truly enjoyed it.
Peri Livesey –
Insightful, emotional poems that reach right inside, expressing pain, hope, and resilience. Savour each one and let it sink in.
Cameron Dreamshare –
Reading this poetry collection is like stepping into a sacred, unfiltered space where pain, resilience, and healing dance across the page. Each poem is a courageous act—bearing witness to the deep wounds of trauma, especially the unspeakable grief and rage that follow sexual assault—and yet every word pulses with the heartbeat of survival.
This book doesn’t shy away from the darkness. It speaks to the silence many carry and shatters it with fierce honesty and grace.
Through the language of sport, movement, and physical endurance, the author guides us toward light—showing us how the body, once a site of pain, can also become a place of reclamation and power.
There is something deeply moving in how the author weaves sweat and strength into their healing journey, reminding us that recovery is not linear, but it is possible.
This is not just a book of poems—it’s a companion for those navigating their own pain journey.

Incredibly powerful book, written by an even more incredibly powerful woman.
This is a beautifully written book exploring complex pain, in a way that is unique and honest. Naomi’s way of using words in her book is kind and relatable, in a way a lot of poetry books are not.
Naomi’s beautiful book describes unimaginable pain, explores it in a way that isn’t scary, but is again, honest and kind, and is therefore understandable (and again, relatable), resulting in a powerful journey as one reads through the book.
Thank you Naomi.

Adam –
Very powerful and heartfelt poetry. Inspiring work!
Louise Johnston –
Knot Redefined is a collection of inspirational poems of resilience and finding strength in the face of adversity. I wouldn’t normally pick up a book about trauma and mental health, as some are written from a victim mentality. After seeing Naomi perform at the gym, I couldn’t imagine her book being anything but inspirational, she overdelivered. Well done Naomi.

Finding strength in vulnerability Naomi crafts poetry that only she could write but will speak to many a broken and mending spirit. A beautiful soul shared in raw detail on the page.
