Nice to Meet You
It took a lot to get here. As I become a year older today, I'd like to see this as my 'coming out'. It took a lot to get here. By God, this is who you will remember me as, "The Shiphrah". PS: This has to be one of the boldest pieces about myself that I've ever written. It makes me shiver.

Don't Man Up!
We understand that Men's mental health matter. We understand that they need to be heard, they need to be understood, they need to be loved and taken care of too.

My Bottle Man
The past doesn't just disappear. It finds sweet refuge in your mind especially when it's all cozily bottled up. It can stand in your way and become your monster. Break that bottle. Let the content run out. Expose it. Let it wash over you, yeah it all happened. Breathe and walk out of it's dark...
