HERD is an innovative storytelling platform that empowers women to share their stories with an enthusiastic and supportive audience. Through the art of storytelling and active listening, HERD fosters a sense of community, providing women with a space to connect, find common ground, and discover their voice.
HERD is a regular event featuring amateur storytelling performances by women, for women. Join us to listen, share, laugh, weep, bond, and connect! You can simply be part of the audience and support the storytellers or throw your name into the hat to be one of the nine featured “Yaks.” HERD provides a safe and empowering space for women to share their stories - there will be no judging or winners. We draw inspiration from other storyslams like NPR’s The Moth, but with a women-centered, joy-forward focus.
We chose HERD because it encompasses HER- we want to be a space for anyone who has walked through this male-dominated/focused world and not felt entirely welcomed, who have found themselves ‘outside’ the norm, who have looked for a ‘room of their own.’ HERD also reminds us that what happens to one of us impacts all of us.
We chose the word HERD because it’s a homophone of HEARD. And that’s our number one objective- to help you be heard. Your stories matter. They will change the world.
We chose the word HERD because it embodies the collective identity- the belonging to a group, the feeling of a sisterhood that is expansive and limitless, but also right here, in the room.
So let’s build our HERD! We believe that by sharing your story with other women, by being vulnerable and sharing your mistakes as well as your triumphs, you will inspire others to get out there and give it a go. You will make this world stronger, and safer, and frankly more delightful.
Get ready to join the herd.
Be HERD.
You Are Herd.
