  • Can You Believe My Friend Sent This to Me?

    I was floored when I read his text. At first, I thought it was encouragement. But the more I read it, the more I realized—it wasn’t support at all. It was a perfectly polished example of how women are silenced every single day, often by the people closest to us. Here’s what he wrote: Your…

    On my 16th birthday, my mother told me to meet her at the courthouse. I wasn’t going to school. I had run off again. I was “out of control,” she said—but the truth is, I was drowning. I had spent years living in a house where my stepdad was a raging, violent alcoholic. I’d seen…

  • Why I Started Eve’s Apple™: Because the Truth Was Never the Sin

    I wasn’t made from a man’s rib. I was made in a womb, and I was raised under patriarchy. And now I wear the truth on my chest. https://evesappleofficial.etsy.com For as long as I can remember, the rules were written by men—and I was expected to follow them. I was coerced into marriage at just…
