Sabias Visibility Thread 003: Week of May 4

It just keeps getting better!

How is it already May, sabias?!

Time is doing that thing it does in midlife where the months feel like weeks. But before we let it fly past us, let’s pause and shout out the sabias who showed up last week:

Adriana Phillips Guzman, Lydiana Garcia, Jessica Dueñas, Hady Méndez, Karla Guerrero Guerra, and Elena OutLoud. Last week’s prompt brought out really honest, hilarious, and tender wisdom. If you missed it, scroll back and go give it some amorcito. It is still landing.

Now, let’s keep going.

How it works

1. Pick what you want to share. Either a fresh Note inspired by this week’s prompt below, a Note you’ve already written that deserves more eyes on it, or a recent Substack post you want us to help elevate. The prompt is just a starting point if you need one. One share per sabia per week, so make it count.

2. Drop your link in the comments. Paste the link to your Note or post, plus copy and paste the actual content (or the topic and a short excerpt if it’s a longer article). That way other sabias can read it right there and decide to click through.

3. Come back during the week. Visit at least two other sabias, read what they wrote, and like and leave a real comment that shows her you were actually there. The thread stays open all week, so check in more than once. The women who post on Wednesday deserve the same love as the ones who post today.

4. Restack her words if they resonate with you. That one click introduces her to your readers and is the most powerful thing you can do for another sabia on this platform.

This week’s optional prompt:

What is the most ridiculous thing you used to worry about in your 20s or 30s that you would laugh at now?

¿Cuál es la cosa más ridícula que te preocupaba en tus 20 o 30 que hoy te da risa?

Pick it up if it makes you laugh or immediately brings a story to mind. Or skip it and share whatever you want us to elevate this week.

We're keeping the Sabias Visibility Thread open to everyone through May because it has been too much fun to gatekeep. Paid or free, you're invited. If this is your first time joining us, here’s the full story of how the Sabias Visibility Thread works.

Quick FAQ

Do I have to use the prompt? Not at all. The prompt is optional. You can share any Note or Substack post you want more visibility on.

Can I share more than one thing? One share per sabia per week so every voice gets room to breathe. Save the rest for next Monday.

Do I have to tag or mention Her Wisdom Era? No. Just post to your own profile and drop the link here.

What if I write in Spanish, English, or Spanglish? All three are welcome.

How long should my Note be? However long feels honest. Two sentences or two hundred words. We’re not counting.

When does the thread close? Never. The magic happens in the first few days when we’re all showing up together, but you can drop in anytime this week.

What if I’m new to Substack Notes? Go to your profile, click “Write a Note,” share your response, then click on the three dots in the upper right corner to copy the link to paste here.

Let’s have fun connecting with each other! 💫
