8 Signs You're A GirlBoss In A Modern World

What is a GirlBoss?

To me, a GirlBoss (n) is a man/woman who knows how to act/think/feel like the most confident woman/man in the room, someone who does not take the word no as a definite answer, and one who is able to make walking on glass look like walking on pillows

You may be asking yourself what is a GirlBoss? How can I become this self-proclaimed GirlBoss? Wait a minute, am I already a GirlBoss? Chances are if you're reading this article, you are a GirlBoss or know one.

1. You're used to being called "bossy" but you already know that just means you have your sh*$ together. Also, why is bossy such a bad thing?


2. You're always on time but if for some odd reason you're running late that just means everyone else was early.


3. As much as you may procrastinate, you really know when it's time to get things done. *Que messy bun, large coffee, rap music*


4. You may be called a bitch, but we all know what that really means....


5. You understand the importance of staying pulled together when in reality you're sick of any and everyone.


6. You understand what it means to work hard and try your best to do just that every day.


7. What people think of you is only their opinion and is honestly, quite irrelevant.


8. You may be a little too honest at times, but you always mean well in the long run.

At the end of the day, keep being you and keep doing you. What people say or think is irrelevant to how well you are doing and how far you are going in life. Everyone has a little of a GirlBoss in them, it just takes someone or something to bring it out.

The book #GirlBoss by Sophia Amoruso, Nasty Gal's founder and executive chairman, goes in detail about the trials and tribulations of being a GirlBoss in today's modern world!

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
