When you write your truth, you set yourself free - Julie Fairhurst (She Talks)

Have you ever experienced a moment that completely altered the trajectory of your life? Those rare turning points that reveal your purpose in startling clarity are exactly what sparked the Women Like Me movement.
Through a mystical dream instructing "you are your purpose," followed by the word "write," and later the devastating loss of her 24-year-old niece to a fentanyl overdose, Julie Fairhurst found her calling. These pivotal moments led her to create a platform where women could share their most painful, authentic stories. What began with 13 women has exploded into over 350 true-life stories across 29 books, each writer driven by the hope that sharing their truth might help someone else heal.
Anna's story exemplifies this healing journey. After surviving a brutal assault at 22 as a new immigrant to Canada, Anna carried her trauma in silence for 30 years, fearing shame and family rejection. When she finally shared her story through Women Like Me, the outpouring of support from over 100 friends and colleagues freed her from decades of hidden pain. This transformation from secrecy to liberation illustrates why sharing our stories matters so deeply.
Perhaps most revealing is how silence around trauma damages families across generations. When Julie's stepsister read about their mother's trauma for the first time, she confessed, "I thought she hated me"—a misunderstanding she'd carried into her fifties. The truth was vastly different: her mother hadn't hated her; she had hated herself. This poignant revelation illustrates how unspoken pain can create false narratives that damage relationships for decades.
Ready to break the cycle of generational trauma? Consider the power of writing your own story, as Julie reminds us, healing begins when we stop burying our truths and start sharing them, one courageous story at a time.
Listen now to discover how writing can transform not just your life, but potentially your entire family's legacy.
