Ready to Ditch the Diet?
Imagine waking up tomorrow feeling comfortable in your own skin, knowing you are worthy and perfect just the way you are.

As an advocate for self-love and true happiness I have talked to many who have found that diets…
A Breakdown to a Breakthrough
This weekend my husband and I had one of those epic fights. If you’re married now or have ever been married, you know what I’m talking about. It seems to happen about once a year. A knock-down drag out fight that really defines the relationship. It’s painful to go through but we always come out…

Let’s Talk Panties!
Oh boy, this is a subject! Ever since I’ve been plus sized, I’ve struggled finding underwear. In fact, when I gained a substantial amount of weight after my pregnancy, I found that only maternity panties were doing the trick for me. Talk about not feeling sexy, huh? I mean, yeah there are plenty of brands…
Women on a Mission
Ever since I started my Facebook group, it came unbelievably apparent to me how much plus size women struggle to find clothes that they both love and feel fit well. It’s a subject that often dominates the forum. I myself am no exception. Most plus size brands charge more than I can afford to have…
