The Get Real
The Get Real is on a mission to reconnect you with what is meaningful.
We want to create a space for like-minded women to share our creativity, personal stories, and what really matters in our lives -- without the filter.
Metamorphosis
Change is a constant in our lives. Whether it's growing up from a girl to a woman, moving from the countryside to a city, undergoing pregnancy and becoming a mother, or becoming more self aware and in touch with the natural world, as women we undergo many transformations.
This month, we're diving into the theme of metamorphosis – the transformative changes that shape us.
We welcome submissions of anything that matters to you. This could be personal stories of the hard lessons you learned about adult friendships, hot takes of whether university was worth it, ask for advice on a challenge you are facing with your colleagues, interviews with your mum, opinion pieces on how society today views motherhood, poems inspired by the theme, how-tos on best homemade lip scrub you discovered when you were 16...
For more ideas, take a look at what we are looking for.
Whatever it is, we want to hear from you. We just have one rule: be your authentic self.
Our wacky (or not-so-wacky) ideas to inspire you:
🟣 Personal stories (what you learned about yourself through pregnancy)
🟣 Hot takes ('girlbossing' isn't all it's cracked out to be)
🟣 Opinion pieces (growing up under the eye of social media)
🟣 Ask for advice (he’s a ten but has a velcro wallet)
🟣 Interviews (with yourself as a child)
🟣 Something you’ve created (your artwork inspired by the theme)
🟣 Recipes and how tos (the homemade soup that always brings you comfort)
