Skinnyfat.. we all know it, even if we don’t know the term we understand it.. and most importantly— we all hate it! It’s essentially the phenomenon where you look great with clothes on but hate looking at yourself without clothes on.

You ever feel like self-care is this solo mission? Like, it’s just you, your journal, maybe a candle, and some quiet time? I used to think that way too. But then... I stumbled into something that changed everything: supportive self-care groups. And honestly, it’s been a game-changer.

I had a feeling for several years prior but never had actual proof, and it would just lead to fights and resentment. It was nice to know that I wasn’t ju
