We both grew up in a small town together where everyone knew everyone. We attended the same high school and now are currently attending the same college at UW-Waukesha. We started this blog as a class project for our women's studies course. We hope to have a positive effect on women in general especially our community. Our high school only had about 300 total students making it a challenge to keep a high self esteem. Because of this we had a hard time fitting in with the "popular" girls. They would constantly be judging others and would make girls feel very self conscious. This lead to a lot of issues with body image, and self confidence. We wanted to make this blog because we want girls to feel like they are not alone, and this is a place where they can come and share their current issues or problems they have had in the past. We also want to inform women about how the media portrays women and ways in which they can over come this issue.
Much Love,
Erin&Keri
