Following the Signs

Following the Signs is the true story of a girl becoming a woman while learning how to free herself.

It follows Juta from small-village poverty in Latvia, through a marriage that tried to break her, through the betrayal, and into the long, unglamorous work of rebuilding alone in a country where she knew no one and had nothing. Running underneath all of it is a single thread: the signs she kept receiving, and kept talking herself out of.

The heart of this book is simple. Intuition is not a mystical gift reserved for a lucky few. It is a voice everyone has — and learning to trust it is a muscle, strengthened by listening, and then by following.

It is written for anyone searching, anyone rebuilding, and anyone who suspects they already know what their life is trying to tell them. It arrives at a moment when more people than ever feel lost, and are being told to be reasonable, stay small, and wait for something good to come along.

Life is meant to be lived. And now is always the best time to start following the signs.

The cover

Her story in pictures

The cover of Following the Signs was created from photographs from Juta's own life. Point at one and it comes back to life.

That’s the thing about signs — they don’t announce themselves. As a quiet voice in the middle of the night that says: not this. I’ve written it because silence almost killed me. I have to become love to find love. When something resists you that strongly, listen. I allowed myself to be heard — loud and clear, without shame or fear. You can’t hear the quiet voice of intuition when you’re screaming inside. I remembered every time I’d made myself smaller so a man could feel bigger. I learned that being alone doesn’t mean being lonely — it means being free. Sometimes we’re the sign someone else needs. Watching someone else choose themselves reminds us that we can too. I used to think following the signs meant having all the answers. I made choices I’d make again and choices I wouldn’t. The life I am meant to live isn’t a destination. You picked up this book for a reason.
