An inclusive collective, made for you.

Share a story, be part of another.

Throughout, Within is a collection of people’s experiences/advice with their body image, confidence, and self-love journey. We also offer a free subscription of affirmations, self-care tips, routines, and advice to keep your mental health a priority. Caring and loving yourself can be hard sometimes, but it doesn’t mean you’re ever alone.

This is the age of social media, seeing so much content every day is overwhelming and might take a toll on you. We get that, which is why we’re here for you to take a deep breath, relax, and hear from others who have something to say.

Prioritize your care— you won’t regret it. Small steps to improvement are successes for your mental health.

Made by teens for teens: our stories are meant for connecting. Each piece is written as if we are be speaking directly to you. So if you’re thinking about submitting writing— don’t worry about being a Shakespeare.
