Changes for Kaya

The setting adds depth and authenticity to Kaya's journey. I'm curious whether the author wanted to highlight a particular event or era that influenced her growth.

Her personal challenges felt very real and relatable, especially in how she navigates her fears. I wonder if others saw her growth as inspiring or if it brought up their own moments of courage.

The balance between education and storytelling worked really well, but I'm curious about the process behind weaving these elements together—was it planned from the start or developed as the story evolved?
