Making “Mom Jeans” a Good Thing

By Miranda PoppWhether you’re scrolling through your social media newsfeed or running around town, you’re likely to see someone in an outfit that Britney Renbarger has pulled together. She’s taking the internet by storm with her curated fashion collection as she’s dressing moms across our city and the nation.

“There are better things ahead than anything you may leave behind.” Two years ago Amber couldn’t buy her kids bananas — “and this year I took them to Disney World.”

Changes Part 2: Kate Ashton Said Yes to Herself When No One Did

By Megan M. SeckmanShe may only be 29, but Kate Ashton has already reinvented herself three times. Kate began as a hair stylist but soon realized that the job was tough on her body, so she used her cosmetology background to transition to the field of body services, despite never having waxed a body part in her life. For eight years, she dove into the land of body waxing, eyebrow threading, tinting, and esthetician services.“I saw a trend with brows and Brazilians from my clients and realized there was no waxing culture in Southern Indiana,” [...]
