Stories of strength, survival, and the unbreakable spirit of women.

Shahla Shahmiri’s journey began in a place touched by war, loss, and survival  but also by hope. Once a refugee herself, she traveled through many countries before finding her heart’s true home in Australia.

For the past eighteen years, Shahla has devoted her life to helping refugee families rebuild their lives with dignity and courage. Through her work as a translator and humanitarian with organisations like the International Rescue Committee, she became a voice for those who had none  carrying stories across borders, hearts, and languages.

But Shahla’s compassion didn’t stop there. A certified healthy chef, naturopath, and Ayurveda practitioner, she has always believed that healing begins with nurturing  the body, the soul, and the spirit. As a photographer, she captured life’s fleeting beauty; as a healer, she offered comfort and care.

Now, as an author, she gives voice to the silenced. Her stories are raw, emotional, and deeply human  inspired by women who have endured unimaginable pain yet found the courage to rise again.

Shahla writes for every woman who has been told to stay quiet, for every mother who has cried in silence, and for every soul who has fought to find light in the darkest places. Her words are a promise that strength is born from struggle, and love is the greatest form of survival.
