  • Why I Desperately Need to Remind Myself I’m That B*tch Again

    Why I Desperately Need to Remind Myself I’m That B*tch Again

    I always thought consistency applied to areas like health, business, and relationships. It mattered if you were trying to maintain your figure, build a strong relationship, or start a thriving business. I never thought “feeling beautiful” or feeling good about yourself would require consistency, too.  I can’t exactly pinpoint when,…

    I Thought Money Would Make Me More Confident?

    It’s 11 pm, and I’m sulking in bed. I’m trying to distract myself with some light literature that involves a scam marriage, a 100 million dollar inheritance, and a ritzy private wedding on an island paradise. My phone lights up, and in the corner of my eye, a picture of…

  • Bedroom Stories: Why I Stopped Chasing Hot Guys

    Bedroom Stories: Why I Stopped Chasing Hot Guys

    As a single woman in her early 20s, I went through a phase where I sought out the most conventionally attractive guys on Tinder, or “in the wild.” Smouldering looks, sculpted jawlines, and abs you could grate a block of cheese on. I thought I was hot shit because I…

    Leaving my Job with No Plan B

    (Note: This was written between April and May 2024.) I am leaving my job. And no, I am not burnt out. I’m just done. Working for someone is not far different than dating. You know pretty early on whether or not this is going to work out in the long…

  • 6 Ways to Live Your Rich Girl Life

    6 Ways to Live Your Rich Girl Life

    Deprivation can lead to one of two things: Depravedness or hunger. For most of the 25 years of my existence, I lived on the brink of ‘just enough’. Thank god, I had parents who loved me and provided a stable home. Although we didn’t have fancy vacations in Hawaii, and…

    Is it Anti-Feminist of Me to Want to Marry Rich?

    One of the biggest narratives that have survived and traversed through time is of the poor girl meets handsome and rich “prince.” She is whisked into his extravagant world, and her life is forever changed. The prince is often a flawed, dark, or uncommitted being until he meets her and…

  • My Unfinished Love Letter to Paris

    My Unfinished Love Letter to Paris

    I remember my first night in Paris like it was yesterday. I arrived on this inconspicuous street, in an unmemorable arrondissement, far away from the bustling center. A little rough around the edges; at least the type of street you wouldn’t want to be wandering late at night. The noisy…

  • Money Talks for Women: It’s Hard Being Feminine Without Funds

    Money Talks for Women: It’s Hard Being Feminine Without Funds

    Despite what you see online, I would argue for the most part, that women are not intrinsically as financially motivated as men. In a study done by Illuminate Ventures, 15% of male entrepreneurs were financially motivated to start companies as opposed to only 2% of females. How we’re raised, what…

    My Intention Word for 2024…

    Instead of making boring old New Year resolutions every year, I settle upon a word or theme I want to focus on that year. Last year was Glow. I’ve written some blog posts this year that covered the theme of Glow such as Radical Shifts and How to Glow Up…
