Weathering
Weathering is a photographic series by Kahiah Polidore. Through storytelling, portraiture, and advocacy, it highlights the challenges for women of color diagnosed with uterine fibroids, while showcasing their strength and resilience. The purpose of this work is to ignite dialogue surrounding the Fibroid epidemic, create a space to build community, and honor the beauty of our journey.

Tell Your Story (Part I)
Share your story!! This survey is designed for women of color to share their personal experiences with uterine fibroids. Your responses will contribute to raise awareness, amplify our voices, and highlight the emotional, physical, and cultural impact of fibroids. Your story matters, and your honesty and courage are deeply appreciated.

This project will require a lot of collaboration for part 2 once we get to the portraits! If you are a fibroid advocate, medical professional, therapist, wellness coach, herbal medicine professional, make up artist, photography studio, or prop designer located in Atlanta- please follow and message me! We’re about to have some fun!
