Please Stay: A Letter for the One Who Feels Done
Dear You, If you're reading this, it means something in you is still searching. Still reaching. Still here. And I want you to know: I'm so glad you are.
Coming Soon...
WORDS YOU CAN WEAR.
CARDS YOU CAN KEEP.
A REMINDER TO STAY.
In honor of Suicide Prevention Month, we’re launching a collection of intentional t-shirts, grounding greeting cards, and thoughtful gifts—designed to help end the stigma, honor real-life mental health experiences, and spark conversations that remind you (and those you love):
You matter. You are needed. You are still becoming.
And that is something beautiful.
Until our brand launch, you can also support this mission through early donations—help us reach more hearts and also fund mental health services and life-affirming resources.
A Glimpse of What's to Come
Here's a preview of upcoming collections we're nurturing behind the scenes:
T-Shirts
Our debut apparel line is rooted in the Still Here campaign—a soft rebellion against shame, silence, and isolation. Each theme offers a wearable reflection of healing, support, and self-discovery.

Redefining the Greeting Card
We often think of greeting cards as something we send to others. But what if they could be something we also send to ourselves?
At Sonesta Wilde Studios, our cards are created to be held, kept, and revisited. They are a place for journaling. A daily affirmation on your wall. A reminder of who you are becoming.
Ways to use them:
- Write to yourself as you would to a cherished friend
- Frame a favorite as a gentle visual reminder
- Gift someone a reflection they didn’t know they needed
- Tuck one into your journal, your mirror, or your favorite book
"Sometimes, the words we need the most are the ones we write to ourselves."
Journable. Giftable. Framable. Cherishable.
Our Mission:
Sonesta Wilde is more than a name—it’s a movement. A space where words and art become a refuge. Through poetry, storytelling, and beautifully crafted products, Sonesta Wilde invites you to explore the depths of self-reflection, healing, and personal growth. Whether through the pages of a book, the strokes of a journal, or the quiet comfort of a greeting card, this brand is about creating moments of connection—with yourself and the world around you.

We’re Not Afraid of Each Other’s Night Anymore
Instead of hiding our truths, we must speak from the heart. We are learning to sit, speak, and walk with our pain. We are not afraid of each other's night...
