Share your story

👑🌹 YOUR STORY COULD HELP SOMEONE ELSE. 💀👑

I’ve always believed that people carry far more than you can see from the outside. We smile, get on with life, look after everyone else and do our best to keep going, often without anybody having a clue what we’ve actually been through.

And sometimes, all it takes is hearing somebody else’s story to realise you’re not the only one who’s felt that way.

That’s a big part of what I want SBQ and SBK to be about. Yes, there’s clothing, logos and a brand we’re building, but there’s a much bigger reason behind it all. I want to create a place where real people can share real experiences, without pretending life has always been easy or that we’ve got everything figured out.

Maybe you’ve battled with your mental health, lived with chronic illness, struggled with addiction, lost someone you love, come out of a difficult relationship or had to pick yourself up and start again. Maybe your story is about something you’ve overcome, something you’re still working through, or simply a chapter of your life that taught you more than you ever expected.

Whatever your story is, we’d love to hear it. ❤️

And please don’t think you need to have some extraordinary tale to tell. You don’t need a perfect ending, and you don’t need to have everything sorted. Sometimes the most powerful thing you can say is, “This happened to me, this is how it affected me, and this is how I’m getting through it.”

You can share your story anonymously, too. You don’t have to put your name out there if you’d rather keep that part private. There’s no judgement, no shame and no expectation to share more than you’re comfortable with.

If you’re happy for us to feature your story on the SBQ or SBK blog, send it over to us:

🌹 SBQ: scarsbuildqueens@gmail.com

👑 SBK: scarsbuildkings@gmail.com

Please let us know whether you’d like your name included or would prefer to remain anonymous. We’ll seek your permission before publishing your story.

I know how much it can mean to feel understood, especially when you’ve spent a long time thinking nobody else could possibly understand what you’ve been through. We can’t promise that sharing a story will fix somebody else’s problems, but it might help them feel a little less alone. And sometimes, that matters more than we realise.

So, if there’s a part of your life you’d like to share, our inbox is open. Take your time, write it in your own words and only share what feels right for you.

Real people. Real stories. Real life.

Because our scars don’t have to define us, but the things we’ve lived through might just help somebody else find the strength to keep going.

Together, we rise. ❤️🌹💀
