We can’t become what we need to be by remaining who we are. – Oprah
It’s hard to believe we are sharing this post, but this will be our final month of The Single Diaries. This site has been such a huge part of our lives for the past year and a half. Though it’s difficult to imagine a world without it, we have realized that it is time for each of us to take our next steps.
Single Girls we’re looking to you to lend us a hand by nominating The Single Diaries for Forbes 5th annual round up of the best websites for women. Each year the publisher curates a list of sites which ‘provide take-away information and tools that directly benefit you. [Sites that] will cultivate your career, inspire change, or maybe just make you think a little differently.‘ To give you a better idea, here’s a look at last year’s list.
When we launched our site we did so with the mission to advise and inspire young women like ourselves to grow with the challenges we face each day. Though we call it The Single Diaries, we use ‘Single‘ not as a way to define relationship status but as a way to emphasize the importance of having strong and healthy relationships, starting with the one you nourish with yourself. We hope that we’ve been able to deliver content that not only entertains you but also helps you learn something new, motivates you to accomplish your goals, and inspires you to dream bigger.
If that is the case, we would truly be honored to have your support as we strive to accomplish this big dream of ours. To cast you nomination, simply

This month marks the 1 year anniversary of The Single Diaries and we couldn’t imagine a better way to top it off than to join this list. We appreciate all the love and support you’ve shown us the past 12 months and hope to celebrate this accomplishment with you all!
Superbly Single,
Jen
Happy Thanksgiving! When we set out on this journey, we were focused on finding a creative outlet for ourselves. We knew we had a great idea to share our experiences as twenty-somethings with others and to call on our girlfriends to share their life lessons with us. The Single Diaries hit its three-month mark last Sunday, and we are overwhelmed with the response we’ve received from our extended circles in this short amount of time. When you’re focused on writing and getting posts up on time, it’s easy to block your view of where the website stands in the public sphere. Because of this, your words of encouragement, support and affirmation mean the world to us. We are grateful that you are reading. We are grateful that you find value in our words. We are grateful that you want to share in our vision. We are grateful to have you wonderful people as friends.
We wanted to celebrate our work, your work, and our friends, so we hosted our first Single Diaries Friendsgiving at Jen’s new place.
Welcome to Single Girl Brunches With the Best—a series of conversations with friends and leading ladies who are fierce, fearless and inspirational. Some months we will talk over mimosas, others hot chocolate. This month, Jen and I sat down over pizza and vino at Sonoma Wine Garden so you can get to know us, and hopefully we will get to know you soon.
