Thank you for your interest in contributing to Letters to Younger Sisters, a feminist storytelling initiative by Woyomo.

This initiative invites women to write honest letters to younger girls and women as big sisters, sharing life lessons, career guidance, experiences in activism, self-confidence, and personal growth. These letters are meant to encourage, guide, and remind younger women that while the journey may not be easy, it is possible.

You do not need to be a public figure, a leader, or someone who has everything figured out. What matters most is your lived experience and your willingness to share it with care and honesty.

Your letter can be written to: your younger self, a younger sister, cousin, or friend, or the young woman who may need encouragement and guidance.

Why Participate?

  • Be the "big sister" someone needed.
  • Empower younger women with courage, confidence, and clarity.
  • Contribute to a growing collection of feminist knowledge and mentorship.
  • Help build a legacy of shared wisdom and intergenerational support.

What Can You Write About?

You may choose to focus on one or more of the following areas:

  • Life-changing lessons you learned along the way
  • Career, education, or purpose
  • Activism, advocacy, and using your voice
  • Building self-confidence and believing in yourself
  • Navigating challenges and continuing forward despite them

How Long Should It Be?

There is no required length. Your letter can be short or long, simple or detailed, as long as it is honest and written with care.

Confidentiality & Consent

All submissions will be treated with respect and confidentiality. You are free to submit your letter with your name or anonymously. Woyomo will only share your letter with your consent and will handle all stories with sensitivity and responsibility.

By submitting this form, you agree that your letter may be documented and shared through Woyomo's platforms (social media, website, or publications) for the purpose of empowering and inspiring young women.

Thank you for choosing to be the sister someone else needed.
