This playlist follows Callista’s shift from a carefully planned engagement toward the uncertainty and self-discovery brought on by the sailing disaster and long isolation. The instrumentals move between open-water spaciousness, intimate reflection, and hard-won hope; the vocal songs trace devotion, upheaval, resilience, and the possibility of choosing a life true to oneself.
