Fall is officially upon us! It’s just about every girl’s favorite time of year (myself included), but along with the cozy sweaters and pumpkin spice lattes comes the temptation to slack over the holidays. I’m not saying this is a bad thing! I think it’s a crucial part of living a happy and balanced lifestyle, especially for driven boss babes like us.

Love Yourself
February is undoubtedly the official month of L.O.V.E. This past Valentine’s Day you may have once again felt pressured to get caught up in all the hype.

There isn’t enough said about how we love …

Define your STRENGTHS. Reclaim your IDENTITY.
Where there is human life, there is comparison. We live in a world filled with “what you should be” or “what you need to be.” Every time you turn on the TV or open a magazine, you’re inundated with unrealistic, “perfect” pictures of women and men. The obsession to have a certain body type or to wear “such and such” designer, has created a culture obsessed on what you have and not who you are. How depressing. I ask myself: what would the world look like if we lived for being the one-of-a-kind …
