Editor ’ s Note :
Welcome to She Her Them
If someone told my teenage self I would one day be the Editor-in-Chief of a women ’ s student magazine , I probably would have laughed and said , “ yeah right . Anyway , I ’ m late to ballet ” as I stumble out the door with a dance bag flung over my shoulder and pointe shoes in my hands .
I was far too busy trying to carve out a future in musical theatre to consider a career in anything else . Besides , writing was only something I did to fulfil the needs of essays and exams so that I could one day land a spot at a prestigious conservatoire .
After full-time ( full-on !) musical theatre training left me with damaged tendons in both ankles , I had a lot to reconsider . You ’ d be surprised how much time bed rest gives you to read magazines and start a blog .
Fast forward to now , where I write to you in my exciting new role at a magazine that ’ s needed now more than ever , where we write the genuine stories of all women and believe them . But we couldn ’ t do it without you , our readers – this first issue is for you .
