This is Carro — and why people end up here
Sometimes, you just lose track of yourself.
You feel tired, empty, or a little lost inside.
That’s when it’s time to be seen again — truly seen.
Most people don’t come here by accident.
Something has been on your mind for a while.
No drama, no crisis.
Just… a feeling that something inside you is asking for attention.
You keep thinking about it.
You try to understand it.
But words don’t quite reach it.
You may notice:
you feel restless while everything looks fine on the outside
you think a lot but don’t really feel clear
you’ve outgrown something, but don’t know what comes next
you understand others easily, yet yourself… less
You don’t need to constantly talk about it any longer.
You don’t need more advice.
You just want recognition.
Not someone fixing you but someone seeing you.
That is what a Soulselfie or an afternoon with me is for.
A little about me
My full name is Carolijn Annette, but since I was thirteen, everyone has called me Carro.
For over 30 years now, I’ve been working as an illustrator, Soulselfie channeler and artist.
I often notice things that aren’t being said out loud —
not to judge, but to bring clarity.
I make the invisible visible, in a light and accessible way.
As a child, I didn’t really understand my sensitivity.
To be honest, I sometimes thought there was something wrong with me.
Now I know it’s actually my strength.
Drawing has always been part of my life.
I used to make little comics about things I experienced 😁
I’ve lived in many places, both in the Netherlands and abroad.
My life has known movement, loss, love, and change.
When my best friend Monique passed away, something shifted deeply within me.
The way I sense and perceive people suddenly became very clear —
and impossible to ignore.
Three days after she died, she stood next to me and said:
“It’s all about love, Carro.”
It took me about 15 years to truly understand what she meant:
unconditional love.
And again and again, I discover:
everything is already there —
you just have to be able to see it.
What else do I love to do?
I love painting, making art, cooking, and laughing with friends.
I’ve lived abroad and travelled a lot, and I’m endlessly curious about other cultures.
You’ll often find me in nature or around animals — especially cats… lots of cats😸
I also enjoy reading tarot cards and following whatever sparks my curiosity: Human design and astrology are a few of the topics I explored deeper.
