“The world of fashion and the world of artificial intelligence may look different, but they push the boundaries of self identity and build the architecture of societal structures just the same. To witness the mechanisms that shape our world - whether it be via lines of code or backstage at a runway show - has been the most incredible privilege of my life!”

“I've finally figured out what I want to be when I grow up and now I'm a romance author. Yes, I'm absolutely loving what I'm doing and am finding some success, there are many more days that I struggle with severe chronic pain and anxiety. There are many days I'm so sore and tired, I don't want to get out of bed. It's a fight to get up, get dressed, and get to my desk to write. The fear of what if the pain gets worse and there's a day I can't get up is overwhelming. But, I keep fighting- for me!”

“In my son’s death, I learned that grief cannot be compartmentalized, and it is not neat and organized. That is because grief is not simply one emotion. It can be anything, in everything, and everywhere. When I am overwhelmed in happiness, I can also consumed by grief. And so, grief cannot simply be overcome - that wasn’t ever possible. I am also realizing, as I process my guilt in son’s life, that in a whole life you have a spectrum of experiences that bring joy (though happiness, comfort, relief, and connection) and also grief (through fear, sadness, anger, pain). I could not protect my son from the “bad” things because he lived a whole life. Too damn short, but whole. And so there is joy and grief for my whole life. They both exist and they are both welcomed now; I will not reject either, because now I know to embrace living my life whole.”
In honor of #internationalwomensday I am so honored to share today’s raw Secret Identity. Over the past year, so many diverse women from around the world have united through the connection of a Secret Identity. I am so proud to be a part of this community and am so excited for what’s to come.🤍 #everydayisinternationalwomansday
I cannot believe it has been exactly 1 year since the launch of Her Secret Identity. Thank you to everyone who has supported this movement and shared their Secret Identities with us. I could not have imagined the growth and impact we’ve had this year, and I cannot wait to take HSID in new directions in 2022!🤍
“I run my own business and work with my husband, definitely cause for stress (and a mama of 2). I love what I do but it definitely gives me moments of chaos without people noticing.”

“As a music teacher, performer and singer, it it easy to see me as someone who has tremendous confidence. Singing on a stage, walking around a park with my guitar, or just singing out loud to a friend is what I do with ease. However, since my childhood, I have often felt like an outsider. I have struggled to know exactly where I belong or where I fit. Is very strange, but an entire room full of people can know me and “love” me, yet I still don’t know who wants me to sit with them. My craft is what I do and what I am passionate about, but deep relationships is what I crave most.”

“I’m great in my own way. I will learn when I’m older. Each day you learn in your own way and that’s great. This is my truth.”

“My Mother was the original SuperWoman and seen as invincible. I inherited her strength and everyone thinks I can do it all without help. This is a burden and tiring. I have learned to ask for help and encourage others to do as well.”

“Most people I know want to make their parents proud, earn a “job well done” from a teacher, a colleague, or an employer. They strive in every way to do everything well. I am one of those people; have been for all of my life and the truth is that wanting to do and to be great all the time is not realistic. Pushing for that perfection anyway can cause stress and a fear of failure that over time can be debilitating.”

“I can take a bit of time to warm up because I am reserved & cautious about situations and people due to my history as a victim of a violent crime and also due to my tendency to doubt myself and thus need to evaluate the person or situation I am in in order to move towards a place of greater confidence (always growing and working on this...and much improved!!)”

“People think I can learn a lot easily, but I spend a lot of time reading, studying, rereading and participating in professional development - I’m a teacher. I want to know better so that I can do better!”

“As a child there was drama in our home and I learned to please everyone in order to avoid being a burden or a reason for any additional drama. My life goal is to eventually love and accept myself as much as I want others to love and accept me.”

“I put on a happy face. I always have. I learned it from my mother. My parents got divorced when I was 10. My mother raised me on her own. She got kidney disease and was on dialysis for over 15 years. Through all the pain she smiled and made others happy with her sense of humor and outgoing personality. I took that from her and have strived to do the same. On the inside I am nervous, I worry, and I'm indecisive and I only trust a handful of people. Since my husband passed away 2 years ago I am struggling with my new path and my new identity. Who am I if I am not Tim's wife anymore? Who do I want to be? Do I want to be a realtor? Bike builder or run away from home? I haven't decided yet.
I know, I will always be just me. I need to make myself happy. That's who really counts...just me.”

“I was never comfortable in my own skin & always wanted to be more ... happier, smarter, prettier, funnier, etc. Drugs & alcohol allowed me to forget all of that & be someone else for a while, in my mind at least. When I couldn’t control it anymore, it almost killed me. I fought for my life & had to face myself in the process. I learned that acceptance of myself & others was the key. Today I am 5 years clean/sober but it’s a daily fight.”

TW: Sexual Assault
“I have suffered from anxiety, depression, and PTSD for literally as long as I can remember. I was molested by a family member between the ages of 3 and 6 and it only stopped when my sister passed away. 3 months after I moved to California, a man invited himself into my apartment while I was sleeping and raped me. My boyfriend had left because we got into a fight. The guy knew he was not home. I took it upon myself to stop therapy and my antidepressants. I feel better without the drugs and am learning to love myself for the very first time. I always seem happy, but deep down, I’m broken.”
If you or someone you know needs help, call The National Sexual Assault Hotline: 1-800-656-4673

“People think I'm an extrovert and a celebrity and live a life of events and happenings.
My secret identity is I'm an introvert by nature and I'm most at ease quietly cooking and homemaking, reading, writing, and painting in my sweats with my dog by my side.”
I could not be more excited to share the fabulous @rachaelrays Secret Identity! She shares her truthful story live on the @rachaelrayshow. I am so honored to have been a part of her story.

“I have a podcast, go live on Instagram and Facebook and run a community. Everyone asks me how, the answer is that while I have panic attacks, bouts of depression and anxiety often- I choose to believe in authenticity and hope. Because I believe I can make an impact, I step into my fears and allow it to carve me into something more.”
