WRITER, CREATOR, SPEAKER, INTERSECTIONAL FEMINIST
My husband says if I were an object I would be a shovel. A garden spade, to be exact, because I relentlessly dig, dig, dig to the truth of things.
This is the tendency which drove me to read, then write, about the confusing, invisible, mysterious, and traumatic gendered experiences of my life: Sexual assault; emotional abuse; infertility; mental and chronic illness.
MY PURPOSE:
To reveal the unseen truths so we can live without shame.
“With hindsight it is easy to see how often women are led to believe their suffering has a pathological source within, as they are ushered away from considering external causes.
But it still hurts — observing the lengths women have gone to to convince themselves that the problem is in them, rather than in the world.””
