How it started

I’ve been lucky to find safe spaces on social media that helped me heal during my own journey of separation and divorce.
Now I want to pass that on, for other women who may not yet be ready to share publicly.

"Project She Still Rises"

is created to hold women’s words with care and anonymity...

Your story matters. And maybe,
one day it can be someone else’s survival guide.

Dear Women,This is your invitation to write.
If you’re going (or have gone) through separation or divorce and wanting to be heard, to express, and maybe even inspire someone else, then here you can find your voice and reclaim it by writing here.You can write to the younger you, the future you, or to any part of yourself that needs to be heard. You can even write a diary entry for someone else. There are no rules, you can share your letter in the given form!

Your words will remain private unless you give consent to share them. If you do, they may become part of Torn Pages section (shared anonymously).

These are stories of women who are still becoming. Shared anonymously, with permission. Not for advice or answers, just to be seen and heard.They are pieces are offered with the possibility that it might resonate with someone else.

Some of these supported me when I didn't have enough words. Maybe they’ll do the same for you.
