Your Story Matters

Have you walked through something that quietly unraveled your peace — something that shifted how you see yourself, others, or even God?

If Sarah’s story stirred something in you, that may be the soul’s way of asking for space to speak. Here at TOMFAW — Trusting Our Maker, Finding A Way, storytelling isn’t about having the perfect words. It’s about beginning — even when your thoughts feel tangled or your voice feels uncertain.

This space helps you find your story before you even know how to tell it. Sometimes, that starts by writing in the third person — not as a way of hiding, but as a gentle step toward clarity. As Brené Brown says, “Storytelling helps us understand ourselves — and distance helps us survive the retelling.” Writing in the third person gives you enough space to admit hard things, to hear your own truth like it’s being spoken by the person you trust most.

Everyone is welcome here. Whether your story is unfolding now or buried in a chapter you thought you’d closed, you don’t have to carry it alone.

Stories shared through this form are read privately and held with care. She responds to every one — always.

This is your space to begin.

Submissions are read privately. Nothing will be published without permission. A story guide is coming soon to support the writing and healing process.
