✨About Shya

I’m Shya — Writer, Rememberer, and Creator of Shya Unbound.

You can find me in the Unbound Hallway— that thin, trembling place that exists between the life we survived and the women we chose to become.

I am the daughter of a line of women who held storms in their ribs, the mother of a son who was born to carry light, and the Matriarch of a lineage who finally said the cycle ends with me.

My work lives where the body tells the truth before the mind can explain it. Where softness is power, and survival becomes art.

I write for the women who outgrew their silences. The ones who left rooms that dimmed them. The ones whose hearts cracked open and found a voice inside the rupture.

Every story here is a doorway: into remembrance, into sovereignty, into the self you buried to stay alive.

So Step gently. Step honestly. Step as you are.

Because you didn’t come here to disappear. And neither did I.

Welcome to Shya Unbound— Where we gather to remember ourselves and rise without apology.

No self-erasure required.
