Edge of the Woods: A Memoir of Fire and Second Becoming - Paperback

The Edge of the Woods is a memoir of what happens when the role you've played to keep everyone else safe is suddenly stripped away, leaving you standing in the silence of the aftermath. It is the story of a decade of "gray"-a time when Kyra kept showing up for the people who needed her, all while feeling like a polite, hollowed-out stranger to her own heart.

But there is a part of us that cannot be extinguished. In the quiet that follows catastrophe, in the early morning stillness, the messy middle of raising children, and the deepening pulse of an intuition she had been too responsible to listen to for years, Kyra began to hear a new transmission.

This is not a story of "arriving" at a perfect, fixed destination. It is a story of becoming.

Moving from the devastation of loss to the clarity of the woods, Kyra shares a map for the woman who knows she is meant for a larger, more honest life but has forgotten how to claim it. Weaving together the hard-won wisdom of a mother and the grounded mysticism of a modern sage, she invites you to stop performing, start feeling, and finally listen to the voice that has been clearing for you all along.

If you have spent your life anchoring others and are ready to learn how to swim in your own waters, this is your permission slip. You are not too much. You are not behind.

The woods are calling. It's time to come in.
