Women Supporting Other Women Is The Best Thing To Happen To Our Society

We live in a society where it is "cool" to outdo each other. We make everything a competition. It is always, who has the better makeup, hair, outfit, etc. or who is in a relationship and whose significant other treats them better? EVERYTHING is a competition and it makes life exhausting. Instead of competing against each other, we should be working together, supporting one another and lifting each other up.

I have noticed within the last year that women are really starting to support other women, and I. AM. HERE. FOR. IT!

We Are Strong

We as women are taken for granted a lot of times. We are treated as fragile little people, both emotionally and physically. People think that we are not as strong as we truly are. We go through so much emotionally, spiritually and physically. We work so hard to reach our goals and our dreams. It is so nice to have the support of others, instead of them trying to constantly tear you down.

Kindness Is Powerful

When you are doubted by others, that gives you motivation to work harder and prove them wrong, but kindness and support is even more powerful.

Growing up, I was always doubted and knocked down by mean girls by anything and everything, whether it was my clothes, hair or makeup (or lack thereof). This gave me anxiety, stress, depression and self doubt. Because of the mean girls, I was self conscious for years.

When you have support and motivation from others, they push you to go above and beyond your original goals. They push you to be the best that you can possibly be, even when you do not believe in yourself, your girl gang will always believe in you and have your back through the ups and downs, and that is the best feeling in the world.

Building Each Other Up Makes Us More Powerful

When we support each other, we help each other grow in better ways and to be our best selves.

Building each other up only makes us better and stronger.

We should not be competing against one another. Tearing each other down only does more harm than good.

Women supporting women has been the best thing to happen to our society in a long time. We will all be better versions of ourselves and happier people when we support one another.

Being mean and petty does not help anyone and is always unnecessary.

So let's keep this trend going and spread kindness like wildfire!

The Post Thanksgiving Panic And Anxiety

It happens to all of us, the weeks between Thanksgiving and Christmas the catch up with you.

Thanksgiving Break is most likely everyone’s favorite break during the fall semester. You get to go home and reminisce with all your high school friends. That diet you’ve been on for the past month goes out the window, and you get to eat until you put yourself into a food coma. There’s no rush on homework and you can just lie in bed and Netflix to your heart’s content. To me that sounds like an ideally wonderful break, and totally stress-free.

Even Shonda Rhimes, winning creator and executive producer of the hit TV shows Grey's Anatomy, Private Practice, Scandal, How to Get Away with Murder, and The Catch agrees that relationships with fictional characters are real. In her book, The Year of Yes she states, "I have spent more time with Meredith and Christina then many of my actual friends...When you watched TV, even spending a full hour with Christina once a week, you were likely spending more time with her then you spent with most people in your life. That relationship was real."

Going to the gym and working out on a daily basis (with breaks once in awhile) has been a great way for me to feel good about myself. It is 100% more than just looking good. Especially after starting college and having the stress and anxiety of tests, assignments, and just figuring out my future, the gym at my school has definitely been a place of relief for me and I have numerous reasons of why everyone should push themselves to get to the gym when they can.
