About LiL o’ Me...
When I was 6, I loved pink. Every shade was for me. In my 20s, it was grays, blacks, browns. 40s is my new 6. I’m back with a Pink Vengeance! Pink is my new super power.
I was a free thinker as a child, as most of us are. Not a care or worry in the world. Adulthood appeared and casted a shadow over that glow. Then mature-hood gave me my groove back (Yes, Stella!). It’s all bright colors and smiles from here on. I’m not as afraid to shed the darkness and let my true self shine through. Now let’s find your super power.
A line from a movie stuck with me and helped guide this journey of mine. “When I was in Italy, I learned a word — It's "tutti" … which in Italian means "everybody." So that's the lesson, isn't it? When you set out in the world to help yourself, sometimes you end up helping Tutti.”
It’s time to set yourself free. Choose happiness. Spread joy. Relish in laughter. Love yourself the right way and inspire others to do the same. I hope you join me in shining. Let's illuminate this world together!
With A Shit Load of Xs & Os,
Tanya
Our Mission
We were created to motivate you to step out of your comfort zone. Each piece is designed to awaken your highest potential and inspire you to shine in every way possible.
We want you to release your inner glow. Radiate. Be bolder. Shine brighter. Challenge yourself to be authentically you. It’s not your problem if your light is too bright for their eyes. Hand out shades if you want to be nice.
Along the journey of creating this site, I noticed how much I was dimming my light. I couldn’t give you a site called Fcking Shine if I didn’t have the balls to do it myself. So I learned how to give less fcks, set more boundaries, and love the shit out of myself to know what the real thing looks and feels like.
Giving Back
…To Our Humans
None of us would be here without someone who reached out a hand to help us up when we fell. Giving back is crucial to us, which is why we're starting here. For each purchase, a percentage will be donated to programs that uplift, inspire, and help free our fellow humans from past traumas. Let's rise together and help others do the same. It takes a village.
Our first organization, We Got Next is a non-profit that provides access to professional basketball coaching and training to at-risk youths. With limited resources, they rely on community support to help kids pursue their dreams and build valuable skills like camaraderie, self-esteem, and comprehension.
