Can you love your body and actively try to lose weight? I know I’m not the only body loving lady who needs to lose weight for health reasons.

I had never heard of Steamy Chick let alone vaginal steaming but months later, I’m an at-home v-steamer, and I love it! Yes, I love vaginal steaming!

If you’ve ever suffered from eczema, you know my struggle. I'm pursuing healing and loving my skin from a different perspective.

I am doing a few things to prevent my children from inheriting my eating disorder, and I’m hoping and wishing and praying that it works.

I hope my kids have learned from this talk about suicide. I hope that they understand the gravity of bullying and the importance of compassion.

That’s when I decided that Snapchat shows me how I look to other people — which is pretty damn gorgeous! And then, I felt the self-love start to flow.

For me, yoga is a big part of how I show myself love and care, and it’s also part of how I teach these things to my children.
