The N.A.M.E. Platform was born from a blacked-out BINGO card. Every square filled. Every issue lived. It exists because the woman who built it learned that what you refuse to name will continue to define you — and she decided that was no longer an option. Not at her expense, and not at yours.

When Dr. DeAnna Lynn Nix steps forward to speak, a shift takes place. Her voice carries the weight of a woman who has walked through fire—and refused to be consumed by it.
A visionary speaker, ordained evangelist, retired federal servant, and decorated United States Army veteran, Dr. Nix delivers messages that don't just inspire audiences—they ignite them.
To bridge the gap between clinical treatment and lived experience by offering testimony-based frameworks that give survivors the words they were never given — and empowering ministries, organizations, and educators to carry those tools into the communities they serve.
To create a movement where survivors lead the conversation on abuse — not from textbooks, but from testimony — and where every person who has been told they are broken discovers they were never the problem.
Each is built so an audience leaves with a sentence they didn't have when they walked in.
