This article appears in the October Issue of Jennifer Magazine.
Because our October Issue is all about empowerment we asked our contributors to share their favorite things that make them feel empowered. Here’s what they shared…
HONEYCOMB COLLECTIVE
personal astrological almanac
I don’t have to track my own transits by hand anymore, which takes HOURS! I use it to plan my best life and to schedule my healing, my work time, vacations, family, and fun time, etc. It’s definitely one of my favorite things. -Dianna
BOOKSHOP.ORG
online bookseller
Not only is it an alternative to the bigger, more corporate (ahem) online booksellers, they gave me the chance to open my own online bookstore! I’m keeping my “inventory” small (but growing) because I’m only adding books I really love. - Holly
FIXING FAMOUS PEOPLE
podcast
The show is hilarious and is my perfect midweek pick-me-up. If you need an hour full of laughs and love celeb gossip that isn’t cruel, then this podcast is it. I cackle (which I didn’t know I could do!) every single episode. - Julia
UPPER LEFT LADIES
membership & community
After moving to a new city where I clung to my partner as my social network, and then the pandemic hitting a few years later, I learned a hard lesson about isolation and the need for community. This membership has proven to be worth every penny. -Keri
STONE COOPER
jewelry
When I put on this jewelry, I feel strong and beautiful. The pieces are so much more than an accessory, they’re more like talismans. Each one is so unique and magical, and I love effortlessly incorporating their jewelry into my personal style. -Susan
THE FAIR PLAY METHOD
policy
It helps me feel empowered because it more equitably distributes household labor. I am less burned out because my family does more and the mental load is reduced because I am not solely responsible for keeping our household going. - Tami
