🎖️ NewbieI’ve learned that patience and understanding are key to healthy friendships. Life gets busy, and being patient with each other during those times can really strengthen the friendship.
🎖️ NewbieI ended a friendship when I noticed that I was always being put down. It took time to recognize that this behavior was toxic, but once I did, it was easier to walk away and find healthier friendships.

🎖️ NewbieBody image has been tough for me. I’ve learned to be kinder to myself by practicing positive self-talk. When I catch myself saying something negative, I try to replace it with something encouraging.
🎖️ NewbieSocial media can be overwhelming with all the ‘ideal’ body types displayed. I found peace by remembering that health looks different for everyone. Celebrating what my body can do instead of how it looks has helped me maintain a positive self-image.
🎖️ NewbieI struggled with jealousy in one of my friendships, and it caused a lot of tension. I realized that comparing myself to my friends only made things worse. Instead of being competitive, I focused on supporting each other’s successes, which made our friendship stronger.
🎖️ NewbieBuilding confidence was hard for me because I always compared myself to others. But I’ve learned that confidence comes from appreciating your own journey. I started celebrating my small victories and reminding myself that I’m capable of achieving my goals.
🎖️ NewbieTo build a strong resume, I made sure to use action words like ‘led,’ ‘created,’ and ‘developed.’ It makes your accomplishments stand out more. For my cover letter, I tell a brief story of how my experiences have led me to the job I’m applying for.
🎖️ NewbieI’ve always been obsessed with plants and gardening, so I decided to start a small business selling potted plants. It started slow, but as I shared more about plant care on social media, my business grew. I love how I can turn my hobby into something that earns money.
🎖️ NewbieSocial media makes it hard for me to just be myself. I feel like I have to follow trends or post certain things to fit in. It’s like I’m creating a version of myself that isn’t real. Does anyone else feel the pressure to maintain an online persona?
🎖️ NewbieWhenever I try something new, I get hit with waves of self-doubt, like I’m not capable of succeeding. I’ve learned that it’s okay to fail, as long as I keep trying. What helps you keep going when you feel like you’re not good enough?
