"Soma means body."

The Vision

Soma is not a wellness brand. Soma is a way of life.

Forged in the fire. Forged through survival. Soma utilizes applied sacred wisdom forged through survival to liberate women. Through ritual, beauty, luxury, oils, salves, mists, smoking sticks, and artisanal glassware, we bring women back to their bodies—reclaiming what was always theirs.

The Manifesto: Not a Business, But a Revolution

Soma is not a business.

It does not have a human resources department for the very reason that humans are not resources. Humans are human beings.

And to that end, we do not gatekeep, monetize, or capitalize on trauma, pain, other people's downfalls, or emotional labor. You are not entitled to women's stories, you are not entitled to our stories, our bodies, or our minds. We do not consent.

Soma is not interested in brand deals, partnerships, or anything that would seek to co-opt what we are building. Soma is sovereign. It is led by its founder, Yvette Norris, and that will remain uncompromised and unchanged. That absolute integrity is the heartbeat of Soma and everything it stands for.

Soma is a revolution. Welcome.

The Rebellion & Advocacy

For too long, women have been handed a script written by everyone else:

• Stay silent.

• Your anger is wrong.

• Swallow the injustice.

• Shrink yourself to be smaller for others' comfort.

No more.

Soma exists to shatter that cage. We create survival kits specifically designed for saving yourself—sent to women in domestic violence shelters and women everywhere who refuse to be silenced, smaller, or manageable.

Beyond the collection, Soma is a platform for systemic change. Founded by a lawyer who has faced direct impact from domestic violence, institutional violence, and corruption—and who fought relentlessly, pushing through existing systems up to launching private legal action against the government—Soma was born from a devastating and unyielding truth: no one ever listened until it was too late, and that is the theme of the current systems. They manage optics and protect power while people drown in the fallout, only stepping in with post-mortem inquiries after the damage is already done.

And the machinery does not stop there. The media steps in to devour the woman, scandalizing her trauma, turning her into a tragic martyr so the rest of us are left to just survive the wreckage. Survival shouldn't have to be the way that we live.

We are tackling the harsh realities of homelessness, corruption, and the systemic mistreatment of people under broken domestic violence and mental health systems—specifically calling out how trauma is weaponized against women who have extensive backgrounds in domestic violence, abuse, and neglect. This is not about targeting individuals; it is about dismantling the underlying systemic mechanics of corruption and broken institutional practices that protect power at the expense of human lives, allowing entrenched injustices to continue harming both women and men.

Because these systems fail to keep people safe, and because everyone needs to have a safe space of their own as the absolute starting point before anything else can be addressed, this fight is non-negotiable.

We are passionate about human rights—in particular, enshrining safety as a fundamental, unassailable human right in law. Soma will continuously serve as a megaphone and a platform for that advocacy, standing at the front lines of critical issues, with freedom of speech standing as a non-negotiable pillar of that fight.

Save yourselves.

Investing in the World You Want to See

This is my vision, built from the ground up, but it belongs to a reality much larger than any one of us.

When you explore this collection or purchase a piece, you are not buying a product. You are investing in an idea. You are putting your weight behind the exact world you want to see exist.

Soma does not participate in corporate funding loops or compromised partnerships, but unconditional donations are welcome—going directly into something bigger than yourself to fund the survival kits, fuel the revolution, and ensure that no woman ever has to face the fire alone.

We Are Building Our Own Table

We are not operating within governments, bureaucracies, corporate spin, tokenistic efforts, White Ribbon days, or morning teas. We are not participating in that.

We are creating our own movement, intended to generate actual change based on legal analysis, lived experience, and strategic policy and law reform.

We are looking for women who are actively experiencing these conditions and are in need of shelter, support, and assistance—because part of Soma's long-term vision is direct land acquisition and housing to provide women in desperate need with a lifeline of basic shelter and support.

We are also looking for like-minded, passionate women with lived experience of trauma, domestic violence, homelessness, and mental health mishandlement who share an unyielding passion for change.

Soma is a lifeline, a luxury, and a declaration of war against the forces that try to diminish you.
