Founders of Connected Sisters, the online and social media platform for women to share true life stories, will be telling their own personal stories during this year’s National Story Telling Week 26th January – 2nd February 2019 and they’re looking for participants to share theirs.
Connected Sisters has three main aims: Firstly, to share real stories that will help inspire other women going through similar challenges and keep women’s wisdom alive. Secondly, to showcase the beautiful individuality of women with authentic photography, thus disrupting the ‘perfect female images’ women are subjected to each day in the media. And finally, to build a sizeable community of women and then fund- raise for women who need help.
The sisters have been collecting stories from women all over the world for the past six months and have gathered thousands of stories so far. Consistent themes of great strength, resilience, courage and empathy come through time and time again. They are publishing at least one per day and are inviting women to get in touch with their story.
