Davina Lomax Burns

My Family Tree Came With A Trigger Warning! I grew up in the small town of Henryville, Indiana and went from a high school dropout to a college professor. I have built a sacred, secure life for myself, one hard-earned choice at a time. Today, I am a CPA, a college professor, and a writer. People often ask how I got here. But I believe the more important question is how I have stayed here, rooted, resilient, and still willing to tell the truth. I share my stories not as polished success snapshots, but as lived experiences that hold both the ache and the beauty. The parts we carry. The parts we question. The parts we almost did not survive. Because when we speak honestly about where we come from, something shifts. We give others permission to hope. To heal. To imagine a different ending for themselves. My work is for anyone who has ever felt unseen, unheard, or “too much”, and is ready to reclaim their story on their own terms. I believe this deeply: Remember: Your Story Matters. Your Truth Heals.™

EXPERIENCE

About Our Brands

Under Truth Based Life, I bring all of my work together. This is the home for my speaking, podcasting, and storytelling platform centered on resilience, memory, and truth.

Within that, H3nryville™ is my true crime and memoir universe. It holds my personal trilogy, documentary work, and other story-driven projects rooted in real events from my hometown and family history.

Raised In A Psychological Thriller™ is my reflective framework. Through journals, workbooks, and storytelling tools, I help people name what they have lived through and begin to write their own healing narratives. A little sense of humor along the way doesn't hurt.

LyrAIcs Lab Studios is where my creative and music-based work lives. Here, I write and share original songs and custom lyrics that echo the themes of truth, survival, and reclaiming your voice.

Transforming Trauma into Triumph™ supports my digital and educational offerings, including downloadable content, courses, and creative resources designed to help people turn lived experiences into insight, art, and forward motion.

At the center of every brand and every project is the same belief:

Your Story Matters. Your Truth Heals.
