Brandy's Self Love Club Favorites

Brandy's Self Love Club Favorites

This Valentines we want to celebrate something a little different; radical self love. We hear about self love all the time but what does it mean to radically love yourself? Radical self love is an ongoing process that involves unlearning toxic beliefs about inferiority and body image and replacing them with self-acceptance and compassion. And it's not just a belief that you are more than good enough; it's taking action by caring for your body and mind. We're tossing the cheesy jewelry and replacing it with meaningful mantras and reminders of self worth.

Vibrant streets of Oaxaca, Mexico - an ideal destination for arts and crafts enthusiasts.

Oaxaca Travel Guide: The Ultimate Arts and Crafts Tour Itinerary

I just got back from an unforgettable arts and crafts tour in Oaxaca, Mexico, and let me tell you—it was everything I hoped for and more. From learning backstrap weaving with a local artist named Norma to picking out a one-of-a-kind embroidered dress at Miriam’s shop, each day was packed with hands-on experiences and colorful discoveries. Oaxaca’s markets, workshops, and open-air studios were like stepping into another world, full of creativity and tradition. Whether you’re an art lover or simply curious about Oaxaca’s rich heritage, come along with me as I share the highlights, treasures, and incredible people that made this trip so special.
