About Soul To Rise


Welcome — You’re In The Right Place

 

Hey, Soul Riser — Welcome Home!

 

I'm Vivian, and I didn't start Soul To Rise to sell t-shirts. I started it because I know what it's like to carry invisible weight — to feel like you're screaming inside while the world sees you smile.

 

I grew up as the scapegoat in a dysfunctional home. The one who absorbed everyone's pain, stayed small, and believed love was something you could never quite earn. For years, I thought that was just my story.

 

But here's what I learned: healing isn't about forgetting what broke you. It's about refusing to let it define you!

 

It's messy. Nonlinear. Some days you've got it, others you're barely holding on. But every step — even the backward ones — is moving you somewhere freer.

 

That's what Soul To Rise is: the truth that you can hold pain and hope at the same time. That your story, with all its scars, has power. That rising doesn't mean you stop falling — it means you keep getting back up.

 

 

WHO WE'RE FOR

 

This tribe is for the ones:

 

  • Still in it  — surviving hard days, learning to breathe without heaviness.

 

  • Coming through — finding peace, reclaiming your voice, believing you deserve good things.

 

  • Already rising — using your story to light the way for others.

 

  • Showing up — supporting someone you love, making mental health visible.

 

If you see yourself here — or you're still figuring out where you fit — there's room for you.

 

 

WHAT WE BELIEVE

 

Your story matters — not in spite of the hard parts, but because of them. Mental health isn't a trend; it's life and death. Healing happens in community, not isolation. And you don't have to be "better" to be worthy. You're enough, right now, exactly as you are.

 

We also believe laughter is part of healing. Sometimes the best way to survive a hard day is to find something — anything — to smile about. So yes, you'll find humor here too. Because taking mental health seriously doesn't mean we can't laugh along the way.

 

 

YOU BELONG HERE

 

You're not just a customer — you're part of a movement that chooses empathy over judgment, honesty over perfection, and connection over isolation.

 

When you wear Soul To Rise, you're not just wearing a shirt — you're wearing a reminder. A signal to others who get it. You're saying: I'm here. I'm rising. And so can you.

 

Whether you're barely holding on or finally finding your footing — Thank you for being here.

 

So wear your story like the badge of honor it is. And remember:

 

You are worthy. You are loved. You are stronger than you know.

 

Let's rise together!
