Gloria

We are two experienced professionals in the media industry looking to create a fresh perspective for women like us. We still feel youthful at heart, unless we find ourselves alongside someone who’s 25, and then we embrace our age with pride. We're challenging the typical beliefs about aging in a society that often values youth. While we may not love every aspect of getting older, we appreciate the wisdom and growth that come with it. Rather than viewing this stage of life as a mid-life crisis, we see it as an opportunity for new beginnings.

A Case for Thinking About Your Eyebrows — Gloria

Sep 26, 2024 | hellogloria.com | Leslie Price

If you grew up in the ‘80s and ‘90s, there’s a chance you over-plucked your eyebrows. If you thinned out your eyebrows years ago, what are your options now? If growth serums don't work, we will have you try a different one for three months. If that doesn't work, we start to talk about makeup, and if that is too much work for somebody, then we can talk about permanent makeup: microblading, nano brows, machine-drawn hairs, that kind of thing. But that's the last resort.
The Easiest Way to Travel with Kids — Gloria

Sep 19, 2024 | hellogloria.com | Leslie Price

Last fall break, I discovered that cruises are the ideal vacation for parents who are traveling solo with their kids. Yes, taking a cruise is so very basic — and not something any of my LA or NY friends would ever do — but sometimes it’s worth sacrificing cool points for ease. Most importantly, the kids had the time of their short lives. When cruising with my three young children (ages 6, 8, and 10) from Miami to the Bahamas, I welcomed the convenience of not dealing with rental cars and hotels.
Why Are Women So Vulnerable to Shame? — Gloria

Sep 12, 2024 | hellogloria.com | Leslie Price

Yes. And it's not a movie. It's real life. And this is what happens. I felt so much humiliation and shame because I believed in myself, but I knew those institutions had more power than I did. And isn't that the truth of all of our experiences as women? There are institutions that are making choices for us or inhibiting our choices, and we want to believe, oh, we're feminists. We choose, choose, choose. But we choose given what's available, and those choices are constrained by our circumstances. Yes.
How Women’s Dental Health Changes as We Age — Gloria

Sep 5, 2024 | hellogloria.com | Leslie Price

Most of us are aware (in theory) that a good dental hygiene routine includes regular brushing, consistent flossing, and a biannual checkup. Less commonly known is the fact that women’s oral health needs evolve over the course of our lives.
A Memoir About Mental Health and the Trials of Dating Men — Gloria

Aug 15, 2024 | hellogloria.com | Leslie Price

By Leslie PriceEveryone has a bad-relationship story, but in Men Have Called Her Crazy, Anna Marie Tendler fills an entire book with them. “Bad” is perhaps too banal a word for the behavior she describes — disappointing, coercive, damaging, and illegal also come to mind. Tendler’s memoir treads territory that feels familiar.
The Controversial Treatment Supercharging Women’s Libidos — Gloria

Aug 8, 2024 | hellogloria.com | Leslie Price |Julie Alvin

For this story, I spoke to multiple medical experts, and none recommended pellets as a first-line treatment for women in midlife. Some thought pellets could be part of a menu of options, while others were staunchly opposed to any use of pellets – though all understood why women are taking a risk on an unapproved treatment.
The Reality of Summer With Kids — Gloria

Aug 1, 2024 | hellogloria.com | Leslie Price |Evie Ebert

The last time I wrote about this (Summer is Jail), someone emailed me that they couldn’t take more of my descriptions of “how much it sucks to have three children.” Huh. I figured it was pretty clear that I love having three children? It was my dream? I am moved on a daily basis that they even exist, that we lassoed them down from the celestial plane and now they walk among us, demanding “mo’ cheese” or explaining Minecraft mods.
The True Crime Case More People Should Know — Gloria

Jul 25, 2024 | hellogloria.com | Leslie Price |Anne Roderique-Jones

Before reporting on Sandra Hemme, I didn’t have experience with wrongful conviction cases. I am not a court reporter and I am not a lawyer. I didn’t know that, according to the Vera Institute of Justice, as of 2023, about 191,000 women were detained in jails and prisons across the U.S., with approximately 84,000 being held in local jails. Among the women in these local jails, 61 percent had not yet been found guilty of a crime and were awaiting trial.
Who Are These Photos For? — Gloria

Jul 17, 2024 | hellogloria.com | Leslie Price

By now, we've all had the conversation about how social media creates a highlight reel that doesn’t reflect what’s actually going on. But that's not what I’m focused on. I'm more interested in how, even after deleting my personal Instagram and ceasing to take photos for performative sharing, the way I document my life with my phone continues to evolve in peculiar ways.
The Affirming Power of a Sexy Photo Shoot — Gloria

Jul 11, 2024 | hellogloria.com | Leslie Price |Anela Malik

By Anela Malik, as told to Leslie PriceI don't know how I came up with the idea to do a boudoir shoot. I was living in northwest Arkansas in a quaint city called Bentonville, which is Walmart's hometown. I had just gotten divorced and was figuring out my life. I had taken time off from work – in the early months I was pretty depressed – and I finally felt like me again. But a different version of myself.
