Let’s be honest: the internet is more than simply a tool; it’s a world unto itself. And in this world, a silent revolution is underway. It isn’t showy. It is not aggressive. It doesn’t matter who can shout the loudest or hustle the hardest. Instead, it is about influence, which seems like a discussion rather…
Let’s be honest: most women have a negative inner voice. You’re familiar with the one. When attempting anything new, the inner critic may say, “You’re not good enough.” “You’re too emotional.” “You should have known better.” It’s the voice that criticises your look in the mirror, questions your professional decisions, or shames you for not…

From the classrooms of Akron, Ohio,…
When most people think of fashion, they see runways, trends, celebrities, and seasonal collections. But underneath the flash and beauty is something considerably more powerful: fashion as a means of political expression. Fashion, from headscarves to hoodies, has always served as a symbol of resistance, protest, and identity. Whether it’s a modest item or a…
When you walk into a modern cosmetics store today and see labels that say “cruelty-free,” “sustainable,” or “fair-trade,” you may not realise it was made possible by Dame Anita Roddick.
