Share your experience of growth through trauma with others
Our lives are shaped by the challenges we face and how we make sense of them. Did a life-changing moment end up being a good thing? Stories about post-traumatic growth focus on the positive outcomes of a trauma without denying past distress and ongoing growth. Read our stories.
Your story will describe how you’ve grown because of what you’ve been through. Your final piece will be between 500 and 1,500 words. But don’t worry, you don’t need to send us a polished document. Our experienced editors – people like you who have survived trauma – will help you craft your story.
