“allyship is not meant to be comfortable” - @ericacobb it takes bravery and courage and strength to stand up and speak out in the face of opposition. it’s not easy being the target of hate and criticism. but when you back down - like Target just did - you let their loud voices win. you tell them that if they scream enough, you will give in. and that is letting hate win. we know performative allyship when we see it. call them out. true allies don’t let the bullies win. do better. #lgbtpride #lgbtqpride #loveisloveislove #wlw #lesbianvisibility #femmelesbian #lesbiancouple #lesbianmoms #queerpride #queerparents #representationmatters
DIY outdoor furniture! 🌞 I found plans on Pinterest months ago for a DIY outdoor chair from @angelamariemade. Never did I think I could build a whole set by myself - and I even customized the dimensions!! this has been my new form of therapy. a chance to block out the world, be present, move my body and be creative. total cost to make the 3 pieces (cushions not included): less than $150 - and i have enough leftover to make a side table at no extra cost. will link everything in stories and chair highlight! 🪑 what do you think?? 🌞

easy style, coffee + a pop of color! I’m not a fashionista - in another life, I may be, but in this one, I’m going to choose the basic white tee, jeans or leggings and sneakers or sandals every single time. I decided this spring to go out of my comfort zone a bit and add some pops of color. I just used @stitchfix for the first time and I LOVE it. They made it so simple (hello, busy parents!) - I took a quick style quiz and then outfits are curated for you based on the things you love by a stylist. As you can see, I got a cozy outfit for the morning getting the kids off to school and then can slip right into my DIY. Then transition to a super soft yellow sweater, buttery soft jean shorts and a little pop of pride in my white sneaks to enjoy some quiet time before it’s off to get the kiddos again! With @stitchfix, you can order a box on demand (no subscription!) where you will receive 5 items and you only pay for what you keep - bonus is that if you keep all 5 items, you get 25% off!! I’ve loved trying new brands and pieces that I normally wouldn’t go for. And now, the wife wants her first box! Just to note - the Ted Baker floral slip on sandals are SOOOOO comfy (and cute!) and the Madewell denim shorts are like butter!! Have you taken your style quiz with them yet?? check out stitchfix.com/genajaffe #StitchFix #StitchFixPartner

I was SHOCKED when I learned this. As I'm 36 and a former nationally competitive gymnast, my skin and joints could use a boost! super pumped to share a new liquid biocell collagen that I'm using that is not only delicious but actually is clinically proven to work and is combined with hyaluronic acid -- through the end of the year, I have $20 off for y'all sitewide! check it out here (coupon code embedded): bit.ly/gjmod
did you know I almost had to file for bankruptcy several years ago? <gasp> omg did she just say that? she did. but you can't talk about money like that! but why? (ad) money is not taboo!! whether you have tesla's full or not a whole lot - money is just a thing. so friends, let's get it out there. talk about it. lift one another up. encourage one another with financial empowerment. so here's what happened with me. when I first started my business back in January 2014, I had a robust bank account from being a corporate lawyer. My first year of business, I crossed six figures. Sounds amazing, right? Well, it wasn't. That year, I paid for a very fancy website, hired a business coach and several other coaches, traveled, got engaged, got married, got a dog and then almost had to file bankruptcy. You see, I wasn't financially smart. I was spending like I was getting a steady paycheck without factoring in the expenses of running a business (aka profit + loss). content creators -- surprise - YOU have a business. and with that comes business management, profit and loss, accounting, separate bank accounts - and other things that may make your eyes glaze over. but now you can learn about these things in a quick and easy to understand podcast hosted by Square. Square believes that everyone should be able to participate and thrive in the economy. they assist by creating tools that shorten the distance between having an idea and making a living from it. and to continue their mission, they just launched their first ever financial podcast called Paying it Forward. so give a listen and let me know below -- are you separating your personal and business income and expenses??? if not, lawyer gena is here to tell you to do so ASAP! podcast: actv.at/kwW/GenavieveJaffe_PayingItForward
The 4th trimester. The most awaited trimester includes your baby’s arrival and also the fear of the unknown. (ad) So often, this time is focused on the baby – I mean, who doesn’t love to gush over teeny, little newborns? The problem is, the person who just gave birth is often overlooked. I’m here to encourage you to make a maternal mental wellness plan to help YOU during the #4thtrimester – the first 12 weeks after baby is born – and beyond. As such, I’m excited to partner with Sage Therapeutics and their #CheckOnMom program to encourage you to prioritize your maternal mental wellness. Finding a mom (parent) team to support you can be just as important as preparing a birth plan and could have a big impact on your mental wellness. Head to this link to visit the website and find resources: https://bit.ly/3mmI9EJ I struggled with symptoms of depression and anxiety after having our first child. It was hard and isolating. I kept it to myself. And things kind of imploded at a point. So, I knew to be prepared with our second. My therapist and I came up with a plan for as soon as I delivered. While I did struggle a little bit mentally after our second, it was nothing like with our first – even though it was right at the beginning of a global pandemic! My wife and I also tried to have a plan. I baked in advance so I would have my favorite middle-of-the-night breastfeeding snacks (you get hungryyyyy) and friends sent us gift cards to get food delivered. My advice: have a plan in place that includes a support team – this could be friends, family or your doctor. With resources at myCheckonMom.com, you can find ideas for tapping those in your life to help get ahead of the inevitable: Who will help with food and laundry? Do you have someone to watch the baby so you can shower? If you have someone in your life who is expecting, don’t wait for them to ask, OFFER these things. Committing to these small actions can make a big difference in the mental well-being of new moms (parents). If you feel you are struggling, please talk with your doctor. There is absolutely no shame in what you are going through. You are seen. You are loved. You are enough. #momteam #maternalmentalhealth #PPDawareness
