About the Book
Letters to My Daughter
Some stories are not passed down in words. They live in the body. In the pauses. In the way women learn to survive quietly and still call it strength.
Letters to My Daughter is a lyrical collection of letters for the woman who has loved, broken, mothered, endured, and still found one more breath inside the dark.

There are griefs women inherit without ceremony. They learn to fold them into grocery lists, school bags, dinner plates, and soft voices. But the body remembers. The body keeps the minutes. The body knows when love became labor.
A note from Riva
— A note, quietly placed
I didn't begin writing because I had answers. I began because silence had become too heavy to carry alone.
These letters are not lessons. They are witnesses. For the woman who cannot explain what happened to her, but knows something inside her changed.
If you find yourself here, I hope you feel less alone.
