The Story and the Purpose

We're just not that into you. That is right, all of you men and women out there telling us how to make our lives better. Oh, we don't hate you, or want to hurt you, in fact there are many of you that we love, like and trust. The thing is we just aren't THAT into you. While self-help books continuously top the best-seller list teaching women to be more self-confident, more sexy, less dependent on men-- other sources including the media and our education system, makes us feel insecure and desperate. The fact is, young women are getting mixed messages and in the process trying to be everything to everyone and anyone but themselves.


Our generation grew up being told to admire the single, successful career girl in our classrooms and to be petrified that we would become her among our friends. Women trying to play by "The Rules" of the current relationship advice genre are using a playbook seriously out of step with today's reality. Why, if we are actually empowered and equal should we be dependent on men to call us for dates, for sex, and for companionship? It's time to create a new way of thinking about relationships and friendships, one that celebrates our strength and solidarity as individuals and gives men more credit for being equal, reasonable, compassionate partners as well.

This blog is dedicated to changing the way we, as women, talk about our lives, goals, health and relationships. A dialogue that is not about extremes or telling you how to live, but rather a way to make us all feel comfortable in our own skin with your own goals. Staying home with the kids? Working 100 hour weeks? Women today are looking for answers from anywhere and anyone but themselves. Whatever it is...learn to be really into you. We're just not that into learning how to be someone else anymore.
