Sharin’ the Love g l o From the executive editor
It’s been a heck of a ride, hasn’t it?
I t ’s time to flip those calendars, readers I t ’s time for a continuance
‘ Tis the season of love and romance. And it ’s also time to celebrate a balance of female sweetness + strength. Makes for a great magazine issue, don’t you think? We do, too so, we’ll explore it all
And with Valentine’s Day just around the snow y-swept corner, why not enjoy a Valentine’s Day Gift Guide for sweet ideas to gift to your love?




Count on this (and so much more!) in glo’s Februar y issue Help us share the glo love, won’t you? a

Not a redo, mind you. Sure, a new year sounds so exciting! I t ’s time to star t over Do over Take a mulligan Forget that last mistake like it never, ever happened Shut it out O f
Your Life Forever
Whew! Right?
But it doesn’t work that way And we shouldn’t wish it did (Except for tak ing mulligans as they are highly acceptable in my biennual golf round )
Do-overs mean you ‘forget.’ You pretend. You ac t as if things never happened. But, they did happen. Life can be tough. I t is tough. But, ladies? We are tougher.
A continuance is real and meaningful Why? Because we k now how to finish strong We embrace a continuance because we k now it ’s the challenges (and yes, the ick y, stink y par ts of life) that force us to grow To improve To transform into better versions of ourselves And then? We flourish.

During this season of New Year ’s self-reflec tion, we review with a raw, feel-it-from-the-gut analysis of the past year And, grieve if you must, but then toss the tissues and lace those shoes because you have your world to run I t ’s time to embrace those who make our worlds brighter and to be a light for those lost in the shadows

This, friends, is why we embrace a continuance. Why we accept, feel and then continue on, better than before. Then we may clearly define our dreams, work our tails off and bring those dreams to fruition. But only with the attitude of continuance, strength, authenticity and k indness from the core.
Sincere k indness is a power that builds upon itself I t flourishes and grows like a snowball So why not begin our own revolution of kindness?
And this is precisely the theme for the Januar y issue within your hands. Kindness. Self-improvement. And, we’ve added an array of new goodies to glo for 2018 among them, ‘Date Night ’ is back, and I’m (super) pleased to introduce with the nex t (Feb.) issue glo’s ‘Monthly Man Crush.’ You’re welcome, ladies. ☺
Join the journey throughout 2018 glo Magazine was made for YOU for women of ALL ages I value your readership and I value YOU You matter
Let ’s show what this glo region is made of. Let ’s spread the strongest female force in existence goodness + strength, powered by authentically glo-rious k indness.
Happy Januar y, readers com
