Why Are Today’s Female Empowerment Stories Failing? | guest post by Rachel Leitch, Springtime in Surrey Author

Today I’m sharing a guest post by Rachel Leitch which talks about female empowerment and the way those stories are just … well, they’re not working.

Working in Busyness & Preparing for Launches (April 2023 Life & Writing Updates)

It’s been crazy over here. How ’bout over there? Honestly, I’ve been meaning to do a life update for a while, but it’s hard to communicate clearly what all has been going on without whining, and further, the whining seems kind of silly because from an outside perspective, it does not sound like a lot.
