Sabias Visibility Thread 002: Week of April 27

Showing up for each other. ¡Vamos!

Welcome back, sabias.

Last week’s thread was a beautiful first showing, and we want to take a moment to shout out the women who jumped in and made it real:

Hady Méndez, Nancy Marmolejo, Adriana, Lydiana Garcia, Karla Guerrero Guerra, and Graffiti & Grace⎸ Fuego Cindy🔥. Gracias for trusting us with your words. If you have not visited their Notes yet, scroll back to last week’s thread and go love on them.

Now let’s do it again, even bigger this time.

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 – only if they belong on your page too. 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 would you tell your 20 or 30-year-old self about what midlife is actually like?

¿Qué le dirías a tu yo de 20 o 30 años sobre cómo es realmente la vida en midlife?

We hear so much noise about what midlife is supposed to look like, and most of it was written by people who have never lived it. So tell her. The version of you who was scared, ambitious, lost, certain, or just doing her best. What does she need to know?

Threads are still open to everyone, paid and free. Starting in June, this becomes a paid-subscriber benefit. If this is your first time, 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.
