As if the typical struggles through adolescence and college years aren’t enough (puberty, body image issues, feeling self-conscious around your friends and being bossed around by adults) now there is technology which provides a huge layer of distraction for young girls (and boys).

If you have ever explored living life to the beat of a different drum you know what comes next. The naysayers, the poo-pooers, the negative voices that challenge you and ask you what the hell you’re thinking.
