Stories
Every woman and every girl inspires us. We are deeply grateful to those who have shared their stories about breakthroughs in their lives, the ways in which they have overcome fears, beliefs, or events that once kept them from connecting with their inner strength and recognizing their amazingness. Some of these stories are stories of pain and how a women or girl triumphed over it. As you read these stories, rather than focusing on the pain, choose to focus instead on the triumph and the ways that others have overcome what may once have seemed impossible to overcome. Let's celebrate their triumphs!

Short story. Don’t understand this society much. How do boys want girls to dress? Do they care if they wear crop tops or if all they wear is hoodies and sweatpants. I don’t know how I should dress. If you dress simple people say that...
Resilient: A Survivor’s Path to Triumph It took me 25 years to understand what was wrong with me. It all started when I turned 18 and I decided to go live with the one who I thought was the love of my life. I was very young and completely in...
