Why sharing our stories is a matter of survival

Hi there! I am new to the Elpha community and by way of introduction, I wanted to share this piece I just posted on Medium. I am a single mom who lost my job during the massive tech layoffs. I have found so much solace and strength in communities like these with women who are willing to share pieces of themselves to help others, that I figured it was my turn to start doing the same. I am so grateful to be here.

Welcome Amy! it is great to have you here and thanks so so much for sharing this piece. I can't imagine how tough things must have been and so glad Elpha and other communities have helped you. We also had another member (@millytamati) posting some words of encouragement, should you find those helpful too https://elpha.com/posts/3kk4ek0m/stuggling-atm-here-s-a-reminder-on-why-you-were-built-for-times-like-theseOtherwise, how can we help you in other areas of your life?
