Feminism demands a future free of fat shaming, body obsession and the male gaze.
Why do people after age 40 need sport more than ever?
It has been drilled in our mind since our childhood that sport is important to our health. Most parents encourage their children to play sports at schools, clubs or even in the streets. Sports help kids feel valued by achieving success at one sport or more, have new friends, have fun, develop physical skills, learn positive life lessons through sports which make them honest, reliable, fair and kind when they grow up.

Words Carry Weight
“Your face is so pretty but” was a mantra echoing in my head. I remember the day these words were spoken over me. Standing in front of the bathroom door in the hallway of my grandparents house. The only house I had ever called home in those years. Spoken by the person that loved and nurtured me. The person who I called my rock in those formative years. Out of concern for my health and with good intentions, no doubt, but to the detriment of my young fragile self esteem. I swallowed those words in my mind. They sunk deep and my future life would evolve around them. I would struggle to accept my body and therefore see only its worthlessness.

If The Major Arcana were Reproductive Wellness Things
As you all know, I’m a big fan of the witchy and spooky – and when it comes to bringing that vibe into my work, I love the use of tarot and oracle to tune into the body’s needs and set intentions. Whether it’s placebo or not, there is definitely some value in asking ourselves internal questions and connecting with our energy. The beauty of tarot reading is how we come to interpret our cards over time, and build personal dialogue that helps us make decisions and self-soothe.

Gender envy and lust
I'm not envious. I would just be better at it though. I would be the best I could be if I was not me, but instead him. They yell and cheer each other on, from the sidelines. Their team scored and it is like the Superbowl, or what I imagine it would be for a team who made it to the Superbowl or the finals. But I'm a girl, and this is just a measly college flag football game. It's nothing special.

Lucky Number 13. Top Story - November 2022.
It’s all Gerard’s fault. He planted the seed: About a year ago, he sent us a picture of himself after having completed the 1998 Dublin Marathon. I sent a text message to Victoria saying that “we should keep this event in mind for some day”. Almost immediately, she replied with “How about next year?”
