Dr. Palmonia Gordon is an author, speaker, and women’s empowerment coach who has built a reputation for helping people move from survival to intention. Through seminars, workshops, and coaching, she guides individuals toward clarity, confidence, and personal agency. As founder of ORDER IT Coaching Academy and Palmonia Gordon Ventures Inc., Dr. Gordon focuses on transformation that begins with mindset and shows up in action.

Dr. Gordon launched her third book, Words Matter. The event marked another milestone in a body of work grounded in faith, resilience, and practical self-development. She previously authored ORDER IT: A Guide to Manifesting Your Dreams and holds an honorary Doctor of Humanity in recognition of her long-standing commitment to self-preservation, restoration, and empowerment.

Words Matter builds on a principle Dr. Gordon lives by: words carry weight. The book challenges readers to recognize how everyday language shapes belief, behaviour, and outcomes. Her call to action stays simple and direct; remember who you are, speak life into your future, and use your words with intention to build the life you were meant to live.

During the launch, Dr. Gordon shared personal stories that anchored her message in lived experience. Born in Jamaica, she spoke openly about abandonment, abuse, and hardship. She framed these experiences as chapters rather than conclusions. The room responded to her honesty, her grit, and her emphasis on spiritual grounding as a source of strength.

One scripture captured the heart of her philosophy: Matthew 7:7 – “Ask, Seek, Knock.” Dr. Gordon described these three words as both spiritual instruction and life strategy. They reflect her belief that progress requires clarity, persistence, and action. Through discipline and reflection, she learned how to turn pain into purpose, then teach others to do the same.

According to the book’s description on Bookshop.org, Words Matter asks a simple, but confronting question: what if the fastest way to change your life starts with the next sentence you speak? The book shows readers how to align thoughts, words, and actions so results follow by design rather than chance. Drawing on vivid storytelling and accessible psychology, Dr. Gordon explains how the mind processes language and meaning.

Her approach rests on a structured, practical system. Readers learn how to shape thoughts, choose precise language, and act with intention. The book outlines key lessons, including why doubt stalls progress, how to direct both the thinking and producing parts of the mind, and how to plant phrases that grow into long-term opportunity.

The benefits extend beyond insight. Readers learn how to upgrade self-talk, so it supports the outcomes they want. They explore how gratitude and expectation influence momentum. The book also addresses how to break unconscious patterns and reframe language around abundance, health, money, and relationships.

Following the launch, Dr. Gordon shared a message of gratitude on Facebook. She wrote that Words Matter grew from her valleys, victories, and quiet moments of spiritual reflection. She thanked attendees for bringing the book to life through their presence, whether in person, online, or in spirit.

Words Matter stands out for its focus on application. Rather than theory alone, it offers tools readers can use immediately. For those seeking language that empowers rather than limits, this book delivers clarity, direction, and purpose.
