"Leni reminds us that we are not powerless. We can choose connection over isolation, seek out and listen to diverse voices and conversations, and build bridges to understanding."

- Parker J. Palmer, author of Let Your Life Speak, A Hidden Wholeness, Healing the Heart of Democracy, and On the Brink of Everything

IN A WORLD WITHOUT EASY ANSWERS, BEGIN WITH HEARTFELT QUESTIONS

In this profound blend of memoir and insight, clinical psychologist Leni de Mik invites readers into a journey from Nazi-occupied Holland to a life of healing, reflection, and purpose.

Rooted in her father's legacy in the Dutch Resistance, de Mik explores healing from trauma, reclaiming connection, and responding to moral uncertainty with courage and compassion.

Each chapter offers stories and "heart questions"-gentle prompts for journaling, self-inquiry, and deeper awareness.

Readers will discover how to:

  • Rebuild emotional resilience
  • Move from isolation to community
  • Act with integrity in uncertain times
  • Listen inwardly and live outwardly with care
  • Perfect for readers seeking emotional balance, inner clarity, and a path to compassionate action.

    How Shall I Stand Between River and Land? is not just an invitation to self-discovery, but a timely call to action from one of our last witnesses to a pivotal moment in history. It speaks directly to those discouraged by cultural shifts, afraid for the future, yearning for genuine connection, and committed to building a more just world.
