About Me
Hi, I’m Shereen! Poetry is a way for me to share the learnings I’ve experienced in this life.
I started SoSheDares to inspire women to venture off on their own.

I hope my writing inspires and comforts you. I hope it give you the hug and the reassurance you need to continue. To push past doubt and dread and pursue your heart and joy.
Enjoy!
