QUIET GUIDES
Handcrafted companions to anchor you back to yourself
You know that feeling when you’re nodding, smiling, saying “I’m fine” for the hundredth time, while something inside whispers, “This isn’t really me?”
Quiet Guides are for that moment.
I'm Andrea - 'Soulful Challenger' and Creative at Heart
I bring realness to life – and these Quiet Guides are one of three doorways into that work
In July 2025, I released my book “She’ll Do It Her Way” after 22 months of writing my soul onto pages. Soon after, people started asking: “Can I have these words on my wall? Something I can see every day?”
So I brought my words together with the handcrafted pieces I’ve been making along with my husband, for 5 years at markets, festivals and in shops, and created Quiet Guides. Some carry words from my book. Others speak through beauty alone.
All of them do the same quiet work: anchor you back to yourself when you feel yourself slipping.
We make them by hand in our Northern corner of the world, usually alongside coffee and cake.
Imperfect. Honest. One-of-a-kind. Just like the work of remembering who you really are.
What Happens When The Right Piece Finds You
At one of our recent artisan markets, a man walked towards our stall, stopped, and stared at a Buddha wall art piece. I could sense he was instantly drawn to it. He said, “I usually buy food, but today I’m feeding my soul.”
A few weeks earlier, someone picked up a Chakra wall art piece and just stood there in complete silence, staring at it. I said to her, “If this piece is for you, you’ll know. You’ll feel it.” With tears in her eyes, she bought it without another word.
That’s what happens when art meets soul. And now I’m bringing them online – same handmade care, same words that stop you mid-thought. Just easier to find.
