What happens when a diagnosis, trauma, loss or life-altering event has changed everything - how do you make sense of yourself and your life in the aftermath? Still Living is a radically honest story of the mountains we never choose to climb and what it means to find our way home to ourselves when life has been irrevocably changed. Through the guiding metaphor of a mountain, Asta traces her intimate journey of breast cancer, chronic illness, ME and identity rupture - from a trauma-aware and neurodivergent perspective. Rooted in a nature-based and embodied lens, Still Living explores what healing can look like when life has been fundamentally rearranged. Deeply compassionate, Still Living offers strength, solace and a new language for life beyond survival. It is an invitation to rewild the self - not by returning to who we once were, but by honouring who we are still becoming.
