A Quiet Place Where You Can Breathe…Just For A Second
What Makes SQSH Different?
We believe everyone deserves a safe, judgment‑free space online, especially those navigating unemployment, housing instability, financial hardship, or survival mode. SQSH protects this space by prohibiting harsh, judgmental language and any form of cyberbullying, ensuring dignity for every member.
Our community encourages gentle connection, putting down our phones, stepping outside, and rebuilding life one small moment at a time. Many of our activities are designed for people in transition, whether you’re on foot, on the bus, in your car, or navigating unstable housing. SQSH offers simple, grounding ways to reconnect with yourself and others during hard seasons.
Members can earn both monetary and non‑monetary rewards through kindness and participation. These include eGift cards for essentials, resources for employment like résumé reviews and letters of recommendation, and fun items from our point‑based gift shop. A portion of support also goes directly to members facing housing instability, homelessness, or financial emergencies, helping people get back on their feet with dignity.
Empathy points that reward you for acts of kindness toward yourself and others.

What We Offer
“Owe no one anything, except to love one another; for he who loves his neighbor has fulfilled the law. ”
Our Mission
At SQSH, our mission is to nurture community wellness through gentle online spaces.
We’re praying to be a refuge and serve those who are hurting, especially those experiencing homelessness, financial hardship, or struggling to meet basic needs. And to bring light to the mental health challenges amplified by social media.
Through empathy, faith, love, and kindness, we hope to offer support where it’s needed most.
Who’s Behind the Quiet? A Message from the Founder
I created Somewhere Quiet; Somewhere Heard after a season of back-to-back losses. Month after month, year after year, I felt like I was drowning in disappointment and failure.
Turning to social media for comfort only added to the noise, felt overwhelming and harsh, and made it easier to compare my life to others, often coming across as judgmental.
It wasn’t until I surrendered the fear, left my corporate job, and placed my trust in God that I began to rediscover peace and purpose by creating SQSH.
SQSH is the space I needed, and maybe the space you need too. A quiet corner of the internet for anyone walking through grief, transition, a spiritual journey, or simply craving kindness, empathy and wanting to heal.
