Hey Sis, hey! I'm Grace Sandra; a single Mama of 3, Writer & Activist/Advocate. Out Here Tryna Survive is for all of us women who've spent so much of life surviving that they've forgotten what living feels like.
After trauma, divorce, motherhood, burnout, religious deconstruction, perimenopause, financial setbacks & starting over, (again & again), I realized I wasn't looking for a perfect life but one I was look forward to.
Here you'll find honest essays, conversations, and reflections about healing after harm, midlife rebuilding, Black womanhood, emotional health & everything survival multiple traumas & mental health 'ish has taught me.
Some uploads are deeply personal & some will unpack the lessons I wish I'd learned sooner.
Some explore what it means to be a Black woman trying to build a softer life in a world that keeps demanding strength.
If you've ever looked around and thought...There has to be more than this... you're in the right place.
