44 Stories Circle

The 📗-44-stories Circle is a collaborative publishing initiative focused on sharing real, lived experiences with mental health — stories from people who have faced struggles and found a way through.

By giving voice to these stories, we aim to help those currently suffering and contribute to normalising a topic that still carries too much silence and stigma.

What We’re Building

This is an action Circle with a clear and powerful outcome: a published book of 44 stories. Each story will be co-created, carefully held, and shared with purpose.

Participants in the Circle actively contribute to the development of this project. That could mean sharing your own story, helping shape someone else’s, supporting editorial work, or contributing to the publishing and outreach process.

You don’t need to give all your time — just a steady, fractional commitment and the willingness to support a shared goal.

Why It Matters

Mental health challenges are part of many people’s journeys — but the silence around them creates unnecessary isolation. By telling these stories together, we’re making space for understanding, hope, and solidarity.

This is storytelling with a purpose. And if you're here, you might have something important to bring to it.
