Stories and Inspirations

Written by our community for our community

Harnessing the power of lived experiences and voice through storytelling. Stories help us understand and connect better with each other and ourselves. Through storytelling we are able to view the world through different perspectives, help bridge a divide by visualizing ourselves within the story, and give purpose to a change or action.

At Future Forte, we hold spaces for the stories of women and people from diverse cultures, identities and experiences. Let your mind be opened and transformed by our writers below… We also welcome submissions from community members, email us at.  hello@futureforte.com.au.
