A survivor-led talk on sharing your story with safety and strength, plus grounding tools, boundaries and gentle reflection.
Healing Out Loud explores a part of the survivor journey that isn’t talked about enough: what it actually feels like when healing becomes visible.
Many survivors reach a point where they want to use their voice—sharing their story, stepping into advocacy or leadership, or simply allowing themselves to be seen more fully. That stage can be empowering… and it can also bring fatigue, vulnerability, and emotional aftershock.
In this live Zoom session, survivor-speaker Kaylin Polk shares her lived experience healing after human trafficking and sexual assault, and how she began speaking, what helped her stay grounded, what didn’t work, and how she learned to protect her healing while using her voice.
This is a supportive space for survivors of abuse to reflect on readiness, boundaries, and support systems when considering whether, and how to share their voice.

Brave Survivor Circle is a free monthly online community gathering for women who have experienced abuse in any form — including physical, emotional, psychological, relational, workplace, medical, or institutional harm.
This is not a therapy group or crisis support. It is a creative, connection-centered space designed for survivors to be in community with other women who understand.
Each month we gather on Zoom for light creative activities, thoughtful discussion, and meaningful connection. Participation is always optional. You are welcome to share or simply listen.
Led by Lucia Severtson, licensed psychotherapist, founder of the Brave Women’s Community Center, and host of the Brave Hearts Speak podcast.
Free. Online. Monthly. Registration required.

A Candle-Making & Creative Reflection Workshop for Women
This Little Light of Mine is a collaborative, community-centered workshop inviting women to reconnect with their inner light through creativity, reflection, and connection.
Co-led with Burn Wild, this intimate gathering blends hands-on candle-making with gentle creative prompts designed to foster grounding, presence, and belonging. Participants create a custom candle and scent while engaging in reflective practices that explore light, resilience, and self-expression.
The workshop is held at a gentle pace and rooted in choice, care, and community. No prior creative experience is needed — just a willingness to slow down and create together.
This offering also serves as a community fundraiser supporting The Brave Women’s Community Center and its survivor-led storytelling work, Brave Hearts Speak. By participating, you’re supporting women’s voices while tending your own.
