About GlowGrit Collective

GlowGrit Collective was born from living with chronic illness and realizing how invisible the struggle can feel. Too often, society stigmatizes what it doesn’t see — pain, fatigue, anxiety, depression, neurodivergence — the list goes on.

This space exists to raise awareness, push for change, and remind you that your story matters. Through art, advocacy, community, and unapologetic honesty, GlowGrit is here to fight the stigma surrounding illness while making space for rest, reflection, humor, and connection.

The Intro Glow

quiet + reflective + compassionate energy

Softness for the days you need to breathe, reflect, and reconnect with yourself.

We're Totally Fine

loud + chaotic + sarcastic energy

Because sometimes you just need to laugh at the mess and scream into the void with others who get it.

Meet the Human Behind This

Hi, I’m Jess.

I built GlowGrit because I got tired of feeling like I had to choose between being soft or being strong. I’m both.

I’m neurodivergent, introverted, invisibly ill, and real as hell — and I believe in holding space for the full spectrum of who we are.

If you’ve ever felt like you don’t belong, you belong here.

Join the Chronic Chaos Club!

Start with a free gift: our signature “i’m TOTALLY fine(ish)” wallpaper (mobile + desktop). It’s bold, it’s relatable, and it’s yours.

By joining, you’ll also get first dibs on new merch, updates, and eventually The Chronic Chaos Club newsletter — where we talk openly about chronic illness, mental health, and life just life-ing.
