Unsquashablegirl

UnsquashableGirl is the writing and speaking platform of Gargi Sen, examining what happens when family and relational systems fail—and how women rebuild identity, safety, and self-trust in the aftermath. 


This space is for readers who:

  • grew up in families where care was conditional or absent
  • come from immigrant or South Asian communities where dysfunction and abuse were denied or silenced
  • were praised for resilience while being denied support
  • are rebuilding life after leaving unsafe family or relational systems

If you’ve ever felt alone in an experience that others insisted “wasn’t that bad,” you’re not imagining it—and you’re not alone here.

Gargi, the founder of UnsquashableGirl, is a New York–based lawyer and nonfiction writer. Her work has appeared in The New York Times and The Revealer. UnsquashableGirl focuses on forms of loss that are often minimized or misnamed: involuntary family estrangement, emotional abandonment, abuse hidden in patriarchal dynamics, and the long-term effects of living without relational safety. Rather than offering quick fixes or prescriptive advice, this work explores what it means to survive without scaffolding—and to rebuild a life grounded in clarity, dignity, and reality.
