MEET THE FOUNDER

Hey, I'm Getrude!

I started HerStory because I believe every woman’s life has a message and that sharing it can change not just her world, but the world.

Since then, I’ve been able to speak on 3 TEDx stages, publish multiple books, coach hundreds of women globally helping them turn their stories into podcasts, TED talks, and legacies.

Here are a few things I’m proud of:

Founder of 8 businesses across 3 continents

3 TEDx Stages

Global movement with over 1,000+ women sharing their stories

And now, I’d love to help you share yours.

"Gertrude's Her Story Circle movement transformed my life in just a few months.

STILL GOT QUESTIONS?

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What happens after I apply?

Once you submit your application, our team will review your story. If it feels aligned, we’ll reach out to book a discovery call to get to know you better and walk through the next steps.

2. Do I have to be a speaker, author, or influencer to apply?

Not at all. Many of our most powerful guests are women sharing their story publicly for the very first time. All you need is a lived experience and a desire to inspire others through it.

3. Is there a cost to be on the podcast?

No, the podcast feature itself is free. In some cases, guests are offered additional support like coaching or visibility opportunities but that’s completely optional and only shared if you're a good fit.

4. What kind of stories are you looking for?

We’re looking for stories of transformation, purpose, healing, or reinvention — especially from women who’ve overcome adversity and are now using their voice to uplift others.

5. Will I get help preparing for the interview?

Yes, that’s exactly why we start with a discovery call. It’s not a performance. It’s a conversation to explore your story, clarify your message, and see if it aligns with the upcoming season. If selected, we’ll guide you through what to expect so you feel confident and supported.
