Why That Fairy Tale Mindset Needs to End

May 20th, 2013 — 11:56am

    Today I’m sharing a guest post from Andi Teggart, 20-something author of the blog, Polish My Crown, always a dose of positivity.  I love her Thankful Thursday posts and appreciate an outlook on life that is youthful but wise beyind her age. Her strikingly honest thoughts on the rescue fantasy are so relevant today. It struck a chord for me.

Married since her twenties, she had a child later in life and his ... keep reading...

Dear 20-Somethings,  I'm feeling a bit lost. I'm in my mid-20s, been in a relationship for about a year now. I love my boyfriend, but I'm starting to get that slightly bored, antsy feeling.

Today I'm sharing an interview with a group of entrepreneurs and female business owners from 20 to 40-something on how to find a partner as a founder. Some great perspective.
