Growing up, going to college, getting a job, and finding a way to support myself was never an option. It was a given. In 2006, when I left San Antonio (where I had lived my whole life) to go to school in Boston, all I knew was that I had to find something that I could do for the rest of my life. I didn’t have the slightest idea of what that would be exactly, but hey, that is what college is for right?! I knew a job was a job, but I wanted to find something that I could
OC-native, Michelle McCloskey is no different. With three successful businesses under her belt, she decided to start Run Around Betties, a company that puts a unique twist on personal assistants.
It doesn’t matter what stage of life you’re in: everyone wants to be the best they can. When you see very successful business leaders, there can be a sort of “false aura” of unreachable success around them. If you can get beyond their paycheck, you will realize that the strategies they use can be applied by anyone. For example, when you look at the I have to say, this weekend was pretty fun. Sometimes I get into this anti-social mode, where I feel like I have to use the weekends to catch up on work. That usually leaves me feeling pretty blah. I enjoy hanging out with my friends, and I have definitely started to prioritize it more. The result? I have really been wayyyy happier. The weekend started off with a bang. It was one of my oldest (not in terms of age; in terms of how long we have known each other) friend’s birthdays. We went out on Friday night, and it Recently, I have been thinking a lot about that quote “you have to dress for the position you want” or how ever it goes. Next week, I have a few big business things happening, and I realized that I didn’t really have any professional clothes that make me feel confident. While I have an ample amount of v-necks and jeans, other than a plain pair of black slacks and DVF rip-off wrap dress, I don’t have fashionable pieces for meetings, events, speaking gigs. So, last weekend, I decided to change that, by taking a little trip to the mall. Nothing
Not that long ago, I made a mistake that essentially turned out to be a publicists’ worst nightmare. I sent an e-mail in confidence to an editor, and it happened to have a careless typo in it. The e-mail (typo and all) was published very publicly accompanied by remarks about how no one should ever **SPOILER ALERT – How I Met Your Mother Ending**
Here’s the problem with all fans of TV shows in general – when they get invested in a TV show, they start generating all sorts of expectations for the characters. I learned from my Gilmore Girls days that you should never ever set any kind of expectations for series finales. Ever. Also, remember LOST, you guys? So, this is the day after the How I Met Your
Position / Job title?: Owner and Founder of IgniteGirls® Fitness, an online program and active lifestyle brand for women. 1. When you were a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up? A veterinarian or artist, which eventually transitioned into a vision of being a graphic designer. 2. Fast-forward several This is probably one of my most favorite outfits that I own. I LOVE, LOVE mixing prints, but it does take a certain amount of skill to make sure you don’t leave the house looking like you got dressed in the dark. You can easily elevate the fashion-factor (is that even a phrase?) of an outfit when you combine some good patterns. Through trial and error (yes, some major fashion faux pas), I have learned a few things about mixing and matching. Here are ways to make it work: 1) Wear two different prints that have the same color, like
When Elke Govertsen was 25, she died. Flat lined in a hospital-the whole nine yards. But, let’s start from the beginning because Elke’s story isn’t typical.
