    How Defining Ideal You Can Make Her a Reality

With only a few days before school starts, it’s time to get those brand spanking new planners out and think about what you want to accomplish in the coming year! We’ve spoken a lot about how to set goals, but today I want to share a little more about that first step of the process: visualizing your future!

    Introducing Xoro Media

    June 11, 2018

    In December 2016, I was just a girl going to college 3000 miles from home, and struggling to find enough time in a day to do my homework, go to class, exercise, eat, and see friends.

Things have changed: every other post is written by one of the amazing women in my life, and our podcast Get This Girl a Job just finished it’s first season. Now at the end of my third year of college, I…
