I’m honoured to be part of Marta Szarejko’s inspiring book “Courage Is a Woman”, a powerful collection of true stories revealing the many faces of women’s strength, sensitivity, and determination. The book shows that courage is not always loud or spectacular — often it lives in quiet decisions, inner growth, and the faith to follow one’s own path.

I feel deeply grateful that my story, “The Dreams of Monika Tkaczyk,” is included among these voices. This chapter reflects a more intimate and spiritual dimension of courage — the courage to trust intuition, to listen to inner guidance, and to treat dreams, sensitivity, and creative vision not as weakness, but as a source of direction and power.

My story was written by Kamila Sypniewska, Ewa Winnicka, and the editorial team behind the book, and I sincerely appreciate the care and sensitivity with which it was told.

Being part of this publication means a lot to me. It is not only a story on paper, but a reminder that personal truth, inner transformation, and the courage to be authentic can inspire others.

Grateful to be one of the women sharing their voice in this meaningful book. ✨
