Self(ish) by frank body

We know a thing or two about being risky (read: risque), our brand was built on it. And it was taking these risks with our tone of voice, marketing, and branding that led to success. We want to empower babes to step away from erring on the side of caution and feel confident taking a step toward their ambitions. For my last Self(ish) episode of the season, Michelle Andrews and Zara McDonald from Sh...

She also spoke with Jess and Bree about the stigma of getting help with parenting, and why admitting when you’re wrong can be the most freeing feeling. To be fra...

Why should we lean into activities that foster self-expression? And what happens if we don't find release? We're even more Self(ish) this week as Candace speaks to Ash Rucker  —  Founder of TherapART. A nonprofit based in the US that exists to celebrate and drive positive conversation about art therapy. As a trained yoga instructor, meditation and movement educator, Ash has found self-expression t...

We’re all walking self-billboards, does yours reflect you accurately? This week, Bree and Jess discuss self (expression) with Courtney Act — an internationally celebrated performer, singer, author, and drag queen.

How we define ourselves impacts how we live, how we behave, and how we think. It’s always been our mission to champion individuality, and by recognising our own beliefs in who we are at our core, we can cultivate confidence and a strong sense of self. In this Even More Self(ish) episode recorded in the States, our Head of Marketing Candace MacPherson gets on the mic to speak with Linda Marigliano ...

How we define ourselves impacts how we live, how we behave, and how we think. It’s always been our mission to champion individuality, and by recognising our own beliefs in who we are at our core, we can cultivate confidence and a strong sense of self. Beauty isn’t skin deep, and Ruchi Page is one of the most luminous examples we know. She spoke with Bree and Jess about the shades of inclusivity sh...

Understand thyself to better understand others. Reflecting on — and actively getting to know — our thoughts, feelings, and behaviours leads to clarity and a greater sense of self. Because awareness is the key to change. Whether she’s breaking down barriers or building up boundaries, Brooke Blurton is a force for good. She joined Jess and Bree this week on Self(ish) to talk about how self (awarenes...

Knowledge is empowerment. Arming yourself with the tools to create, sustain, and grow wealth is one of the most important skills you can learn in your 20s and 30s. And with disadvantages already costing females more than their male counterparts, the buck has to stop here. To be frank, let’s get babes this bread. Victoria Devine is an award-winning retired financial adviser, best-selling author, an...

We’ve always been a collective of self-starters, hungry to learn how to elevate higher. And our business has been built on the foundation of making babes feel great about themselves. Instilling confidence through our words, our actions, and our products. But we want to channel that confidence into more. Because going after what you want isn’t inherent, it’s self-taught. To be frank, we deserve eve...
