Maya Culin Self-Advocacy Journal Care for yourself first

🌟 Student Spotlight: Maya Culin 🌟

Big shoutout to Maya, a Social Service Worker (SSW) student, for creating something truly meaningful 💙

Maya developed a Self-Advocacy Journal for Amelia Rising—a powerful, supportive tool designed to help individuals build confidence, understand their emotions, and find their voice.

📘 This journal includes:
✨ Grounding + breathing exercises
✨ Coping tools for triggers (fight, flight, freeze)
✨ Self-care planning + reflection pages
✨ Mindfulness activities + affirmations
✨ A “Circle of Control” to focus on what matters
✨ Positive journaling for healing and growth

Every page is thoughtfully designed to guide users through self-reflection, emotional awareness, and empowerment. It’s more than a journal—it’s a safe space for healing. It will be available on Amelia Risings website to download at no cost.

We’re so proud of the impact Maya is making in the community 👏
