All Women Need a Personal Photoshoot
By Samantha McKenzie I’m going to ask you to schedule a personal photoshoot for yourself. All of us need one. It’s going to feel a little uncomfortable at first, but it’s necessary for your growth and development as a woman. This is not to be confused with the family photo that you take every year…
Believe in the Brilliance of You!
“The trouble with the world is that the stupid are cocksure and the intelligent are full of doubt.” — Bertrand Russell By Dawn Onley It never ceases to amaze me how many intelligent, talented, generally likeable people there are in this vast world who question their abilities and devalue their worth.

Let’s Talk About “Adulting”

Please, Do It Now…
By Dawn Onley There are people who woke up this morning who won’t make it through this day. Jarring right? Not really. I could be one of them. Heck, so could you. This is not meant to scare you. It is simply meant to state a fact that is often so easily forgotten as we go…
Get Comfy Being the Real You
By Samantha McKenzie What if I told you that living right inside of you is a make-believe person, a pretender, a look-a-like that you’ve created to help you exist. What if you realized that after years of mistakes, disappointments and put downs, you constructed an alternate self. She was created with good reason; born out…
