BOOKS

Some stories don't end where you expect them to.

These are not two separate books. They are one journey, told in two parts.

Chasing Light ends where most stories stop — at the threshold of survival, with a quiet exhale and the fragile belief that staying is possible. Holding Light begins exactly there: in the space after the crisis, after the applause, after the moment everyone assumes is the ending.

Together, they tell the truth that recovery rarely speaks aloud — that finding the light and learning to live in it are two entirely different things.

Chasing Light: From Darkness to Dawn

For years, Simone lived in the tension between control and collapse — haunted by trauma, addiction, and an eating disorder that blurred the line between survival and self-destruction. She spent much of her life believing that healing meant escaping the darkness. That if she could just reach the light, she could rest.

This is the story of discovering that wasn't true — and of what it actually cost to stop running.

Told with poetic honesty and emotional precision, Chasing Light traces the journey through suffering, recovery, and the long road back to self-acceptance. It is not a story of perfection. It is a story of becoming — of learning to stay, to feel, and to believe that even the darkest night can lead to dawn.

“Chasing Light ends when the light arrives. Holding Light begins when I realise I have to learn how to live with it.”

Holding Light: An Everyday Miracle

This is the part of the story that is rarely told — what happens after sobriety, after survival, after the dramatic moment has passed and the body remains. The years when progress looks like standing still. When strength looks like getting out of bed. When the question shifts from will I survive this? to how do I live with everything I now know?

Written from inside the experience — not from the other side of it — Holding Light is for anyone who has discovered that staying alive and learning to live are two very different things.

Not a sequel. A deepening.
