SHEHOLDS

SHEHOLDS is an online magazine written by Lai Yin.

The publication follows one woman’s life through marriage, motherhood, family, travel, physiology, attachment, grief, desire, responsibility, and home.

Rather than treating these as separate subjects, SHEHOLDS explores how they intersect inside an ordinary life.

The work combines personal essays, observation, travel writing, behavioural insight, and long-form reflection.
