Autumn
Marissa is working on a series of short stories that are completely relatable and hopefully thought provoking to our audience. Her first entry... Autumn. [BEEP, BEEP, BEEP]. Why does everything have to have an alarm nowadays, as though my attention deviating for one minute would somehow…
You Are Enough
Too often we as woman feel like we must compete. The world shows us images that are over altered and filtered to perfection. Social media displays lives more carefully curated than the MOMA, leaving us to question "what's wrong with this picture, why am I behind the others in this race". Without…
Love The Skin You’re In
When I was younger, I lost my mother early, so I didn't get some of the lessons you'd need later in life as a woman. I never got the birds and bees, "monthly," or boys talk. However, as I age, I realize there is another lesson to learn; the importance of taking care of the skin you're in. Living…
A Girlfriends Guide to Baecation
We all know there are times when you need a girlfriend's suggestion for those more personal things, like a GYN referral or colorist who won't turn your hair orange on the way to blonde. So, it's natural to seek the same counsel of a girlfriend when you're looking to getaway. For this, I turned to…

I’m saying F U to the “New Year, New You.”
2020 has had its trials and come 11:59PM on December 31st I am sure you will be among those hoping 2021 will offer a better outlook. Yet, somehow this year, despite all its differences, many will fall into the habit and make resolutions to be “new” and improved in some way. Oaths to save, travel…
