and I started On Second Thought (OST) to fight for the future of women.
The genesis of OST started with women’s stories and a personal reckoning with the realization that the myths of our girlhood were designed to keep us controllable and complicit into womanhood. We’ve been set up to fail inside systems designed with a limited set of possibilities for being a woman and an even narrower way of determining what makes us ‘good’ and ‘successful.’
What started out as conversations with women across various contexts (professional, personal, academic, etc) turned into giving everything I thought I knew a second thought and this seemingly simple act changed everything.

Be fed up, but don’t give up. You’re stronger than you think you are and if you’re anything like me, you just need a little help to get started and a little help along the way to keep going.
I set out to create a space for women with resources, tools, stories, and more to act as a catalyst for collective rebellious transformation. Much of this started from one woman’s subjective experience along with a deep desire tell women’s stories, focus on women’s issues, and provide a way for us be in conversation with each other. For this is where revolution begins–when we unlearn, rebel, and rewrite together; when we step unapologetically into our next chapter and reclaim womanhood on our own terms. You ready?

In the radical act of centering our stories, calling bullshit on the narrated myths we are taught to build our identities around, and interrogating the systems that create these myths, I began to understand the power of a collective.
It wasn’t just that these stories spoke so clearly to some of my own experiences, or that the ones that didn’t often gutted me more than my own, it wasn’t even the fact that I’m known to enjoy shaking shit up, it was the understanding of what’s at stake in maintaining the status quo. Our trajectory is bleak at best at it’s time to take matters into our own hands.
