A Girl Like Me (AGLM), a program of The Well Project, is a blog where women across the gender spectrum can share their experiences and promote understanding of HIV. Millions of women around the globe are living with HIV, yet many feel they are alone in their disease and isolated in their day-to-day experiences. The goals of AGLM are to help normalize HIV; and to create a safe space for women living with HIV from around the world to speak out and share their experiences – with each other, and with those seeking a support community.

Stigma is a killer, sure, but silence is the weapon it uses.

As women age with HIV or grapple with a new HIV diagnosis at any age, overall health matters. On April 23, 2026, join us for episode 42 of A Girl Like Me LIVE.

We often talk about awareness, but awareness requires visibility. It requires real faces, real voices, and real stories.

You're not alone my friend. All of us are dealing with similar issues, but we can't support each other if nobody opens up and talks.

What is LOVE? You know, that four letter word. Sex is not love, dating is not love, love is a pure and intimate feeling you have overall.

I share the hardship, my HIV diagnosis, the moments of darkness, the joy of sharing my status, and the victory of choosing life.

Sometimes, when I am alone, I ask myself a question: Why am I so public and open about living with HIV?

A definition does not allow room for growth. Life with HIV is not definitive; it is change. It is growth.
