Nov 8, 2019 · I don't think it would ever be proper to end a sentence with "she's" (see the link @JR posted as a comment to your question for a detailed explanation). Other than that, the contraction can be used interchangeably. Good to note though that contractions are generally more informal/colloquial. So maybe you would say to you friend "She's my ...

Jun 4, 2011 · Usage Note: Using she as a generic or gender-neutral singular pronoun is more common than might be expected, given the continuing debate regarding the parallel use of he.

For "it is she" pleads that this is probably closer to historical usage, when the ancestor of modern English still had cases, which were most probably applied as in "it is she". // Note that "illa id est" is probably not the way Romans would write it; they'd rather write simply "illa est".

Aug 23, 2011 · Referring to someone as "he" or "she" while they are present is jarring to me, but the example of using someone's name over and over again is not necessary.

Compare also She acts as if she hated me and She acts as if she hates me (=[40.iii]).
