They say May is for mothers, but let’s be honest, it’s also for muses, moguls, and metaphors. In this issue, we throw flowers not just at mums (biological or chosen), but at every woman rewriting the manual on what it means to nurture, lead, rest, resist, and yes! reinvent.
We follow Melanie Perkins as she redesigns possibility with Canva, dissect the ‘soft life’ rebellion where bubble baths are now valid protest tools, and groove to amapiano’s feminist frequencies where women aren’t just on the beat, they are the beat.
There’s also room for real talk: family fatigue, pink tariffs, and whether your online side hustle is genius… or just digital daylight robbery.
So pour a drink, prop up your feet, and flip through pages stitched with sass, soul, and subversion. Because this May, we’re not just raising women, we’re raising the standard.
Now, if only someone would raise our salaries too.
