Going No-Contact & Living Your Best Life

Dear Steven | Advice

Thinking about quitting vaping but scared given the state of the world? Feeling unmotivated at work? Not sure if you should dump your boyfriend? Lucky for you, Steven is here to help. Every week our brand account manager/in-house movie expert/life-advice columnist will answer anonymous questions from shelf users right here in “Dear Steven!” Buckle in folks…this one’s gonna be fun.

Oh, babe, I hear you—it’s giving full-on heartbreak arc, but trust me, you’re about to have your “glow up revenge” era. Here’s how to slay this:

1. Block and bless

No creeping on their IG stories! Out of sight, out of mind. You can’t heal if you’re still watching their cringe gym selfies.

2. Main character makeover 

Hit the gym, the salon, or Sephora. Nothing screams “I’m thriving” like a fresh look and the aura of self-love.

3. Romanticize your solo life 

Make every little moment iconic. Buy yourself flowers, take solo coffee dates, and strut through life like you’re in a rom-com montage.

4. FYP detox

No sad breakup playlists! Feed your brain positivity. Think Lizzo anthems, Beyoncé empowerment tracks, and thirst traps that remind you, you’re that bitch.

5. New hobbies 

Start that cooking class, pick up a paintbrush, or learn pole dancing. Keep that mind busy with things that make you excited to get out of bed.

6. Rebound… with yourself 

Spend time with friends, but also fall in love with your own damn company. You’re the prize, period.
