Cycle Breaker By: Amanda Burton

For those stuck in the endless cycle and for those who have broken it…knowing who you are and revealing to that the world with the reality of knowing someone will judge you can be terrifying but living a lie and hiding behind a wall of fake is worse. YOU are valued. YOU are worth the truth. YOU des

Fragmented in the Moment By: Amanda Burton

The Smallest Thanks By: Amanda Burton

This season asks us to name what we’re thankful for, but the blessings that matter most aren’t always the ones we can see. For many of us, the holidays feel heavier than we admit — and it’s the quiet, genuine kindness from others that shifts the weight. A gentle word, a moment of grace, a softness

Two photos show Amanda Bynes walking outdoors, wearing a white graphic t-shirt, ripped light-wash jeans, and carrying a small patterned bag. Her light hair is styled. The text "THIS MADE ME EMOTIONAL..." is superimposed, reflecting concern for her current appearance.

Why Does Seeing Amanda Bynes Hurt?

I don’t know what it is, but seeing Amanda Bynes out in LA always hits me in the chest. She doesn’t look unhappy, just…distant. Maybe I’m reading too much into it, but after everything she’s been through, I really just hope she’s okay and protected. Did anyone else use to love “The Amanda Show?!”
