Overview

""Life isn't meant to be easy.""This poetic and reflective memoir traces the journey of a woman who spent much of her life feeling different, overwhelmed, and unseen, until a late autism diagnosis reframed everything. Through raw recollections, quiet reckonings, and deeply human moments, Niki invites readers into the rich, complex inner world she once tried to hide. From childhood confusion to a therapy experience that fractured trust, from mental health struggles to finding her voice as a therapist, this is a story of what it means to come home to yourself, slowly and painfully, but with grace. Writing became part of healing. So did the truth. For those who feel too much, question too often, and wonder if they're the only ones- this book is for you. You're not alone. You're not broken. And healing is still possible.

Author Information

Niki is a counsellor and art therapist with a late autism diagnosis, whose lived experience deeply informs her practice. After hitting rock bottom, writing became a way to externalise the internal, a gentle reckoning with pain, identity, and healing.Her memoir is a reflective and poetic offering born from that process, written for those who feel deeply, question often, and carry quiet hurts.Passionate about inclusive support for neurodivergent individuals and trauma-informed care, she feels deeply honoured to sit beside others as they make sense of their own stories. Creativity, authenticity, and nature ground her life and work. She lives in the hills, surrounded by trees and stillness.
