A raw and honest story of burnout and recovery, blending personal experience with practical tools that helped me heal. For anyone who feels exhausted, lost, or ready to come home to themselves.
MY STORY
From collapse to coming home
On a cold February morning in Stockholm, I told my husband I didn’t want to live anymore.Not that I wanted to die. I meant I could no longer live the way I had been living.From the outside, my life looked successful: an international career, three children, four languages, a full and functioning life. Inside, something had collapsed.This book was written from that collapse. It is my story, the tools that helped me, and the reminders I wish I had when I was at my lowest.

Elizabeth Hansen - United StatesLoved, Seen & Heard is more than just a book; it’s an invitation to pause intentionally, listen inward, and return to yourself with compassion. Aiga shares her journey with tenderness and courage, and this vulnerability is what makes you connect at a deeper level.
Dhanak Suleman - Uruguay
Aiga’s book reached straight to my heart. Not only because she is my dear friend, but because her story resonated so deeply with some of my own experiences. Aiga’s story is deeply touching and immensely valuable. Instead of giving up or letting adversity define her, she found the strength to keep going and turned her experience into powerful insights that can now help others on their own journey.
As a Human Design analyst, it brings me genuine joy to see that Human Design was one of the tools that helped her reconnect with her authentic self, trust herself, let go of what wasn’t truly hers, and begin living as the person she was born to be.
I truly believe this book will offer hope, inspiration, and practical wisdom to anyone who has experienced burnout, faced life’s challenges, or is searching for a way back to themselves.

Woven throughout the book is the author’s own life story, which makes the reading experience deeply personal, engaging, and truly captivating.
I especially appreciated the practical advice and the clear summaries at the end of each chapter, which help to highlight the key insights and provide a step by step path toward positive change.
I wholeheartedly recommend this book to anyone seeking not only a deeper understanding of burnout, but also hope, inspiration, and practical support on the journey to recovery.
Sandra Perdiou - CyprusA deeply personal book, providing thoughtful insight into the lived experience of a burnout. Aiga’s curiosity, openness, and courage takes the reader on a journey through the many interconnected aspects of life, and presents both spiritual and therapeutic tools in an accessible way. Introspective questions invites the reader to reflect on their own and other’s lives, also beyond facing a burnout. Whether one is going through a burnout oneself, supporting someone else, or is generally just curious, the book provides the reader with a holistic, raw and personal story, where the importance of listening to your body in all aspects of life becomes strikingly clear.
Siren Borge - Norway
This book makes you feel like you’re not alone. It uses accessible language to express things that can feel confusing to experience and hard to describe. The author is very honest, and this book is an invitation for the reader to be more honest and have more compassion with themselves. This book is useful both for people who have experienced or are experiencing burnout, and for those who are trying to understand what a loved one is going through.
Margaux Bricteux - BelgiumYou can tell that the author is writing from her own direct experience, which makes the book especially credible. I really appreciate her clear and down-to-earth writing style; her thoughts feel authentic and easy to relate to.
I believe this book can offer hope and renewed confidence to people going through difficult times. It conveys the encouraging message that it is possible to fight one’s way back, step by step, to a good and fulfilling life—and that no one has to face this journey alone.
For anyone willing to be honest with themselves and committed to personal growth, this book is a valuable companion and a helpful guide.
