About this listen
Go as a River, Stay as Yourself is a reflective companion to stories like Go as a River—a book about what it really costs to “flow with life” when your world has been carved by grief, duty, and other people’s expectations. Using the image of a mountain river—pushed, narrowed, diverted—this book follows a young woman who learns to move through loss and exile without letting those forces erase who she is.
It explores how families, towns and tragedies try to write our identities for us, and how easily “resilience” becomes a polite word for self-erasure. Through narrative analysis and intimate reflection, Go as a River, Stay as Yourself invites listeners to question the roles they’ve quietly accepted: the responsible one, the survivor, the girl who stayed, or the girl who left. Instead of romanticizing surrender, it offers a gentler, braver path—one where you can adapt to the current of life while still choosing your own course, your own meaning, and your own name.
