Hey 👋🏻

The Herstorian is a company that I founded back in 2020 to promote the study of women’s history and, more importantly, start integrating women and their experiences into the existing historical narrative.

For a long time, I’ve felt like women’s history has been watered down and reduced to the Suffragettes or Elizabeth I. I’m not saying those topics and women aren’t important, but good women’s history looks for women everywhere, across all times and places.

About this Substack

There are two ways to support my work in women’s history. You can join this Substack as a free subscriber. Every second Thursday, I’ll send you a post that challenges stereotypes, busts the myths and gets you thinking about a topic from a whole new perspective.

If you want to go deeper, check out my paid posts. In this series, delivered every other Thursday, I’m exploring women’s history by the numbers.

Whether you’re paid or free, new subscribers also get a free copy of my book, 31 Days of Women’s History. It’s a short, accessible resource that you can dip in and out of.

You can also connect with me on LinkedIn (where I post new perspectives most days) or drop me an email.
