The Lauren Scruggs Kennedy Foundation

After my accident, my prosthetic arms brought another level of healing and wholeness, and it broke my heart to know insurance failed to provide for many. I couldn't be more excited to announce that the Lauren Scruggs Kennedy Foundation has launched! We exist to bring hope, restore dignity, and ignite faith in girls and women by providing beautiful cosmetic coverings for prostheses. Read more about our story and mission on our website to see how you can get involved, or maybe you know someone we can serve. P.S. Any Stranded purchase gives a percentage to the foundation!

circle seven five

CSF-photo1.jpg

I've come to discover recently that a large majority of you guys are fellow Dallas-ites! Which is why I'm so excited today to talk about Circle Seven Five. I'm assuming most of you have heard of it by now, but just in case you haven't...allow me to introduce you to this wonderful network of women!To quote one of our members: “Circle Seven Five is a group of women from the DFW area who desire friendships, non-competitive environments, good laughs, and networking.” Honestly this is a group of women like I've never experienced before. I grew up in church and had that circle of friends, I was in a sorority in college and had that circle of friends, but honestly ya'll, finding a good network of girl friends after college is tough. I was so happy when I met Cassidy (founder and creator of CSF) and she told me about this wonderful group!circle-seven-fiveHere's how I can explain this group in a nutshell: it's amazing for professional networking and finding connections, it's great if you're just needing a solid group of girl friends in the Dallas area, and it helps you get to know Dallas through all of the fun events we do at different restaurants or parks or fitness studios. It's one of those groups that "you get out of it what you put into it." You could go to every event and probably meet your new bff, or you could just go to a few here and there just to have something to fill an empty night!Regardless though, I cannot say enough good things about this group of women. Fun-loving, encouraging, and just a great group of girls. I highly recommend you look into it if you're wanting to network with other women in Dallas, or if you're just looking for a good group of girl friends!To give you a peek into what a regular month is like for CSF members: Circle Seven Five hosts an average of 4 events per month, and has partnered with Dallas names like Pure Barre Preston Hollow, Matthew Trent Jewelry and Riffraff for exclusive experiences for members. Events range from fitness activities, monthly member lunches, and macaroon baking classes to happy hour events focusing on first time home buying and a new series called “For Curious Minds” educational information for the young professional.If you're interested in signing up to join CSF or learn more about it, click this link to get all the info!
