A Longing For My Sister

Welcome!
I feel an urgency to help women connect to each other on a deeper-than-social-media level. Of course, people can get real and personal on social media, but I wanted to create a singular site devoted to such a purpose. I hope to help at least one woman feel supported and understood.
As stated in my first post, which I recommend reading if you’re interested in the genesis of this blog, my hope is that this will become a comforting (yet vulnerable) space where women can share stories of their personal wrestles to provide camaraderie and inspiration for others.
If you read the stories here and discover they’re not your jam, no problemo. If you read and feel edified, great! But if you read, feel edified, and think that another woman could possibly benefit from reading about your own wrestles, PLEASE let me know! I can’t do this on my own (and I’m sure no one wants to hear about the occasional “wrestle” I have while trying to pry my eyes away from Dr. Pimple Popper—believe me).
In any case, welcome to the wrestle! I hope you find what you need.
