This is a guest post written by Michelle of Let’s Radiate and Bombchelle. I used to not be very good at choosing my friends. (Understatement of the year, right there.) I distinctly remember an incident in my sixth grade art class, where we paired up to draw portraits of each other. I paired up with [...]

Today is the day – Practical Self-Love Coaching – my newest and most sparkly venture is born, and because I believe in emotional manifesting, I have decided to introduce it to you by answering Danielle LaPorte’s Burning Question: How Do You Want It All To Feel? Because, if I don’t show up and describe to [...]

I’ve been dreaming about this post for a month. I’ve been wondering exactly how to describe this feeling of loss that I have. Loss that I can’t quite put my finger on. Without consuming ____ to glue together all of my jagged edges, I feel a little like a bag of mirror shards, clanging around [...]

What I’ve never talked about is that this wasn’t the [...]

This is a guest post written by Margarita Tartakovsky, who blogs regularly at Weightless and MargaritaTartakovsky.com. I’ve never been a regular journaler. Even though I’m a writer, I journal in spurts. Spurts of anger, confusion, grief, gratitude. But writing Weightless and my personal blog has been similar to journaling: It’s allowed me to write my [...]

So I don’t typically post on Saturday, but I thought I would take the opportunity to do something a little fun. In the (very) near future I am going to write a couple of posts about the connection between your body, your voice, and your wallet. I truly believe that our power is in our [...]

Welp, kiddos it has been a whiiile since I’ve done an Ask Marzipan post, BUT that is because I so rarely get asked questions. That said, I’d love to get back to it, so don’t hold back – email me if you’ve got a question at medicinalmarzipan {at} gmail {dot} com. Here’s today’s question/anecdote: I [...]

Today I am super excited to be cross-posting with Amelia of Silence, Cupcake about the intersection of body image, gender identity + sexuality. I can’t remember when I realised that I am a genderqueer person. Sometime in 2010, I think. It didn’t come as any kind of shock. I discovered people who didn’t identify with [...]

If you had asked me on January 13th whether or not I needed to go spend a week in Vermont working on my relationship with my body and food, again, I would have said no. I would have said that I had finally reached a place where I loved my body and that I had [...]
