Wanna find your inner bombshell? Look no further. Stop right here.
from the mailbag: what a difference two years can make!
- , 9/27/2012I created Pink Kisses in the wake of a breakup. A breakup that, to me, felt like the end of the world. Little did I know that my big breakup would actually mark the beginning of a whole new adventure. Since we launched, we’ve helped thousands of women forget their exes and find their inner bombshells. And some of my favorite moments in this journey have taken place when we’ve heard back from someone we’ve helped. Every once in a while one of you reaches out to us to say thank you, and I can’t help but stop dead in my tracks and say, “hot damn. look at that.”
Take Jen, for example. The first time we heard from her, she was fresh off a breakup, confused and scared and needing advice. Now? She’s a certified bombshell. Check her out:
I hope all is well in the world of Pink Kisses and that life has been treating you well! I wrote to you a couple of years (has it really been THAT long?!?!) ago about a devastating breakup that entered my life, and the struggles that came along with it. I was actually super happy that it was selected to be featured on your blog because I was hoping my story would cheer up a girl who was in my same or similar situation. I know that “What Would Betty Do?” totally helped me. Currently, I can honestly say Pink Kisses changed my life for the good, better, and best. I finally got the courage to stop mulling over my ex and picked myself up. I graduated college and am now an MPH student- life is GRAND! I also tried out the online dating scene last year and met the most amazing man ever- a gorgeous cop with some nice abs 
…waaaaaay better than that silly frat guy that dumped me. Sometimes I actually go back to that my email that you posted on your blog and it brings me back to the day I found out it was going to be posted. That was my first day of “recovery” from my ex. I will never, ever, ever in a million years ever forget that day.
Neither will we, Jen. I’m so incredibly proud of you and the new life you’ve created for yourself on your own terms. Rock on, bombshell.

Music Monday ~ Over My Head
- , 9/10/2012This song is for everyone at some point in their life.
If you needed someone or something to relate to while you’re feeling in over your head, look to The Fray. Yes, they’ve felt like they’ve been there too in relationships and the video tells a whole other story of being youthful and feeling helpless in situations (the kids taking a test in the video are kinda adorable though).
The way we see it, that dreadful feeling is unavoidable and it sucks, so look around for your escape. Play the piano, take a walk, turn up The Fray on the radio. You’re gonna get through it.
xx,

How do you find the courage to date again?
- , 8/13/2012Ladies!
For more than two years I’ve been adamant about helping women get through heartbreak by forgetting their exes & finding their inner bombshells. I’ve never made a peep about how to get back out there and date again… until now.
Why? Because I honestly believe that the best thing to do when you’re fresh off a breakup is to spend some time on your own, resetting your priorities and embarking on your own adventures… fabulously unattached. I believe that we have to discover the strength we never knew we had within, and learn to love being independent, before we can find happiness.
BUT, I also believe that once the dust settles and you’ve blossomed into a bombshell, you deserve to be a die-hard romantic if you choose, and to search for life altering love. You deserve not to settle for less than awesome because amazing relationships do exist. And now, I’ve found someone who can help you find the courage to stand up for what you believe and have amazing dating adventures.
So, even though I rarely endorse people, I’m shouting from the rooftops about the oh-so incredible Jenn Burton. She is wise, irreverent and spot-on when it comes to helping women figure out how to create an entirely new kind of relationship on their own terms. Her course, The Courage Kit, that starts in less than a week, is in-dept, profound & provacative. I can’t stress enough that if you’re ready to get back out there, this should be your first step.
To give you an idea of what you’ll learn from Jenn, here’s a taste:
The Step-By-Step Process for creating powerful attraction with men
The 3 Biggest Mistakes women make in the early stages of dating and how to avoid them
The Secret of The Irresistible Woman (and why it’s not so secret)
How to command his respect from day one. And keep it.
How to create and maintain the sizzling love life you’ve always wanted!
Check out her video here and sign up for a chat with her right this second. There are only 7 spots left and they’ll be gone before you can say, “go bombshell!”
And, most importantly, promise me you’ll chase your dreams without apology and never let fear be a reason you don’t put yourself out there in the world. That goes for dating, your career, anything in your life. Go on, be a bombshell in every sense of the word. I dare you.

Looking forward to it!
Music Monday ~ Go with the Flo
- , 8/6/2012There’s an awesome intensity in the music by Florence and the Machine. Soulful. Wonderful. Intensity. The experience of her music almost takes you to another place and lets you feel whatever you might need.
So, go with it! Let Flo take you to exactly where you need to be right now. Feel an emotional release, get excited, get pumped.
Flo is a favorite here at PKHQ, and if you haven’t incorporated her into your daily playlist, we really think you should change that. Here’s to your new music routine!
