"Just over a year ago I started a venture to heal my PCOS naturally through lifestyle changes and supplementation. Anyone who knows PCOS can tell you, it is like an all-out assault on your femininity and your peace of mind. Your best chances of healing the symptom-causing issues at the root come from a painfully clean diet, exercise that doesn't over stress your body, and reducing stress in your life (also certain supplements that can help). I was in a relationship at the time that had become just too much for me, and I had to let it go. At...

"When my husband (most likely) cheated and left me for another women, then my Grandfather passed away the next week, I thought I'd never dig myself out of the hole of sadness I felt. Then I came across Fred and Far and loved the message and knew it was exactly what I needed. I wear my ring every day to remind myself that even though I may not feel it, I AM worth it. And tonight, I'm going on my first date!"

Just this morning, on The Today Show, Mel B confirmed that the Spice Girls would, in fact, be going on tour. Known for her role as Scary Spice, the actress and singer stated, "Yes, we are going to be doing performances together, for sure."

Our response to the announcement of this self love, girl power-charged group reuniting?: To celebrate, we've put together 9 of our all-time favorite Spice Girls lyrics emphasizing girl power and self love: 1. "I will not be told, Keep your mouth shut, keep your...
“Choosing self love for me means asking myself what the healthiest choice for ME is. It means being gentle with myself on the hard days and proud of the easier days. It means setting boundaries. It means asking for help and not trying to do everything myself. I purchased my first self love pinky ring shortly after I was sexually assaulted by a coworker and in the ongoing process of therapy, for major depressive disorder and anxiety. My ring symbolized surviving in a huge way for me. Unfortunately, I lost my first ring and have since purchased the mini self...
Each week, our Friday Feature celebrates powerful women from our tribe who share their magic with the world in unique and inspiring ways. This week, we chatted with Cheryl Sutherland, CEO & Founder of PleaseNotes. This powerhouse shares her experience building a brand that empowers individuals through personal development. When you were a child, what made you the happiest? Spending time with my nephew. We are only 7 years apart so I was his designated babysitter, and at times he was my best friend! What inspired you to do what you’re doing today (day job or side hustle or both!)?...
“I'm a people pleaser at heart and always have been. It was only over the past year where I made a promise to choose self love in every aspect of my life - physically, emotionally and spiritually. I realized if I put everyone's needs in front of my own there will be nothing left of me! It's a learning experience every day but I continue to try to be the best version of myself with self love and (spreading love!) My two dogs Meeko and Marvin would agree!”

Summer is right around the corner, and we're celebrating the start of lazy beach days and cool summer nights with none other than a self love playlist filled with self love songs just for you. If you’re anything like us, music is an escape from the day. It can instantly affect your mood.

While people often assume that self care is something you do independently of others, many do not realize that some of the best forms of self care can be done with a best friend! As humans, we’re social beings (even if we’re introverts), which means doing things with a friend or two is significantly more fun. Even more, incorporating a friend into your self care routine can make it easier to maintain a self care regimen. Self care should come naturally, but let's be real: Incorporating self care can be taxing when there are so many other stressors and responsibilities to manage. As...
“Self-acceptance has been hard for me. For a really, really long time, I (stupidly) allowed myself to be used emotionally and physically by a boy (man is too good a noun for him, even though we’re now both in our late twenties), with whom I thought I was in love. I was young. I was blinded by my feelings. I kept thinking that he kept coming back because there had to be something there, he had to feel something for me, too. I also didn’t think I deserved or could ever do any better. When he moved across the country...
