There Is Only One You, My Journey To Cultivating Confidence

Some of the most impactful events on my confidence (in a weirdly great way) are when things go wrong.

From the Founder, Beauty and Fashion Nicole Zintzun From the Founder, Beauty and Fashion Nicole Zintzun

Where Is Your Inner Compass Guiding You?

You know that nudge inside your stomach? The push-and-pull that arises when you least expect it? That gut decision telling you what to do in moments of indecision and fear. That’s called the wonderful phenomenon of our intuition at work. How does anyone—believers, skeptics, doctors, and scientists—begin to explain it? You can’t. It’s just there. Some call it our consciousness at work. Whatever that feeling is, it’s a beautiful gift from the Universe that helps heal and guide us.

The Beauty Of Burning Out: How To Reignite Your Drive & Passion

It reveals a lack of balance and health, powerful enough to awaken us from the stupor and routine of our days, and motivate us to change for the better. Burnout also reveals a lack of balance and health, helping us realize we are not walking in the most powerful, beautiful, or generous versions of ourselves.

Can Psychedelic Drugs Go Beyond Recreation?

Psychedelic drugs like ayahuasca, peyote, and mushrooms have long been recognized as the drugs that defined America in the 1960s (most notably, the Woodstock Festival). Psychedelics have been around much longer than the past 50 years in fact; their history dates as early as the late 1400s and 1500s throughout many different cultures and religions. With increasing research on their effects, these drugs are no longer only utilized for recreational use but have expanded to help treat mental health disorders like anxiety, depression, and PTSD.

Toxic Relationships & Their Consequences: My Journey From Self-Loathing To Self-Love

Staying in a toxic relationship with both my partner and myself, getting constant panic and anxiety attacks, and going through depression, insomnia, and eating disorders were normal Tuesdays for me.
