THE WOMAN WHO STAYED

I Stay.

Dutch & English

There is a difference

between staying
and holding on

Between being loyal
and losing yourself

Mature strength

does not live in becoming harder,
but in staying.

Staying in your body.
Staying in your truth.
Staying when it rubs.

Not to win.
Not to be right.

But to no longer leave yourself.

The Woman Who Stayed

A personal story about illness, the nervous system,

loss and mature love.

Written in space.

With white.

So that words can land

without overwhelming.

For people with a full mind.

For those who want to feel

without losing themselves.

Available as an e-book

in Dutch and English.

I do not write from theory.

I write from lived experience.

What I share, I have lived through myself.

What I name, I have faced myself.

Not perfect.

But I stayed.
