As a result, women talk, having learned that the fastest way to reliable, valuable information is through each other instead. We built Diem to scale those candid conversations by embracing them instead. Our aim is to turn these conversations that happen “behind closed doors”—whether they’re about friendships, birth control, toxic masculinity, harassment, chronic pain, big career moves, enthralling books, easy recipes, and everything in between— into public and credible resources. Wisdom is like a currency here—we think of every person’s unique experience as a well of expertise that someone else can learn from. After all, so many “taboo” universal experiences go unspoken (so let’s talk about them!). There are no popularity contests in Diem, and we don’t prioritize content that is curated to perfection. Instead, we encourage open conversations among our community members where people feel safe to both talk and listen. The Diem universe has the same energy that exists in your favourite group chat or in the women’s bathroom of a crowded bar at 1 am. We’re strangers that can band together over shared experiences. We acknowledge that we all have our own life journeys and opinions, but that there’s always more to learn and add to the conversation. If you want a resource for credible answers, to share what you know, and to help built a social search engine for women and non binary people, join us.
