We are so honored to invite you into the sacred space of the Voices of Resilience: A Survivor Storytelling Weekend hosted by Resilience Beyond Narcissism. This weekend, May 30 ~ June 1, 2025, is a celebration of survivor voices—from every stage of the healing journey.

Whether you’re ready to speak openly, use only your voice without video, or share anonymously, we welcome you. You are invited to take part in a 20-minute Zoom interview (on or off camera) conducted by our founder. These interview slots are limited, so to be scheduled, submissions must be received by 11:59PM on May 20, 2025.

You may also submit your story in any of the following formats:

🎤 Voice clips
🎬 Videos or Reels
🖼️ Artwork or photography
📓 Journal entries or typewritten pages
✍🏼 Social-media-ready post formats
🧠 Creative expressions of your choosing

** This is not an EXPOSE the Narcissist Event. Any court documents, or pictures of the person must have identifying features and names blurred out. Text messages and screenshots may be shared however, any identifying information, phone numbers, names, and extreme language or acts must also be covered or blurred. (We do not have time to blur these out on your behalf and images such as these will be disregarded if they are sent in.)

You may submit as many stories or pieces as you wish. All submissions received by 11:59PM on May 26, 2025, will receive a custom Survivor Spotlight graphic and will be posted on your behalf in the community. You can choose to be named, use a pseudonym, or remain fully anonymous—we will honor and protect your wishes.

If you miss this deadline, don’t worry—you’re still welcome to post directly in the private Resilience Beyond Narcissism community. To keep the event flow supportive and safe, those posts will be reviewed and released by admins throughout the weekend.

🧠 Trauma-Informed Guidelines for Sharing:

We honor wherever you are on your journey. You do not need to be “fully healed” or have a triumph story. If you are still in the messy middle, or just beginning, your voice is just as powerful and worthy.

This is a trauma-informed space. That means:

Graphic content may be edited or gently declined to protect community members.
Trigger/Content warnings are highly encouraged for topics such as:

🔹 Sexual abuse
🔹 Child abuse
🔹 Graphic violence
🔹 Betrayal trauma
🔹 Suicide or self-harm
🔹 Religious abuse

We may include your story in future events or podcast opportunities, with your permission. This space is for survivors, by survivors—and it exists because of your courage.

Thank you for sharing your light.

Disclaimer: I completely understand and agree that what I submit may be shared in the private Resilience Beyond Narcissism community. I understand that Resilience Beyond Narcissism may edit it to make it trauma-informed or may edit extremely triggering content out of my story or ask me to resubmit. I understand that while my creation is being shared in a private venue, that I should take precautions (watermarks, etc) to ensure other community members do not share, distribute or sell it as their own. I understand that even while this is taking place in a private community full of fully vetted members, and your posts cannot be shared outside of our community, Resilience Beyond Narcissism cannot control other members taking screenshots and sharing them. While members are aware of our safety protocols and this has not ever been problematic within our community, we cannot guarantee the actions of others, however, can promise if this were to become problematic anyone in violation of any of our guidelines would be promptly removed from the community without ability to join again. I also understand that my story remains my own and that Resilience Beyond Narcissism holds no rights to my content. Sharing my story or content may be triggering or emotional for me and I agree that I will take proper care of myself mentally and practice excellent self-care as I am going through the creation process. *
