For The Girl… ✦

For the girl… who doesn’t have strong community. Just got hearing aids. Who’s unsure how to request accommodations, or feels burnt out advocating for them. The girl who feels like she isn’t enough. The girl who’s looking for representation.

‘For The Girl…’ is a curated collection of stories told by women of all ages and lifestyles, from all over the world. Together, we can change the narrative.
