Six Tactics I Use to Improve My Writing

Before I started working in PR, I was a self-proclaimed “good writer.” For school, I have had to write many papers of different styles. Because of this, I have learned how to crank out papers like a well-oiled machine. When I started working at Hourglass, I started to realize that my writing was okay, but I had so many areas that I could improve. Through this process of trying to improve my writing, I have found tactics that have helped my writing skills grow.

Mental Health Moments: The Art of Self Love

One of the most challenging lessons I have learned is how important it is to love and value oneself. I have experienced times in my life where I was my biggest bully. I didn’t love who I was and my actions reinforced this internal struggle. I did not take care of my body, my mind, and my overall well-being.
