Lola Pacini is a character that was introduced on the last season of ‘Degrassi: The Next Generation’. We were lucky enough to see her story develop further on ‘Degrassi: Next Class.’ We saw her be labeled as ‘the dumb one’ by her friends. But we also saw her be the smart one, the wise one, and the strong one that her friends and everyone around her underestimated. In hindsight, Lola is the best female character in the entire Degrassi franchise, and every woman, no matter the age, should strive to be just like her. There are many reasons for that, and we’ll talk about them all. We’ll also talk about real-life female celebrities like Anne Hathaway and (the late) Liam Payne’s exes, Maya Henry and Kate Cassidy to compare. Let’s discuss…
Maya & Campbell: How The Story Of Their Short-Lived Romance Perfectly Continued To Be Told In Death – And How It Transcribed Maya As A Suicide Grief Survivor
Even though Maya and Zig were the main couple of ‘Degrassi: The Next Generation’ from seasons 11 and onwards until they graduated in ‘Degrassi: Next Class’, they weren’t the most pivotal couple of the show. Instead, Maya and Campbell were. Campbell was a student at Degrassi. He was also a hockey player at the school. His time at Degrassi was short, and so was his relationship with Maya. After Zig told him to ‘go away forever’, he did. Though Campbell wasn’t physically present. His spirit was felt through Maya’s journey with suicide grief. It was a long and a complex one to say the least. But just like suicide is complex, so is suicide grief. Here, we analyze the psychological and emotional effects of suicide grief, how to handle it in a healthy way, the similarities and differences between Maya and Esme, Zig’s girlfriend during the time that he and Maya took a break from their relationship. and why Maya should’ve gotten a different ending to her story after graduating high school.

Jenna And Connor: How Degrassi’s Most Boring Couple Redefined The Term ‘Interabled’ When Labeling A Pairing
Jenna and Connor from ‘Degrassi: The Next Generation’ might be known as the most boring couple of the show, if not of the entire franchise, mostly because they were the most non-problematic couple of the show. Some might say they were the most random couple of the show. But there are several reasons to detest those theories. Their story represents Jenna’s growth as a person and a woman, and it was exactly what both needed in one another. They represent a healthy relationship; a relationship we all strive to be in. This is an interracial and an interabled couple – and yet, this is a loving couple, and this is a couple that we should all take example from in the real world and strive to be like. This is also telling that people with disabilities CAN, in fact, be in loving, healthy, mature relationships. They might be boring, but boring is a good thing. The most boring couple were the starting point at redefining the word ‘Interabled’ when describing a couple where one person is disabled and the other isn’t. Let’s discuss…
Allie Bhandari: An In-Depth Analysis Of Her Abusive Relationship With Leo – And Why It Didn’t Surprise Me
Allie Bhandari is a very interesting ‘Degrassi’ character. She’s first introduced as Sav’s little sister, a rebel…but with a cause. She’s a young high school student, but is shown to have gone through so much by the age of 18. Her most pivotal and life-altering event in her life that we, the viewers, witnessed was her abusive relationship and later marriage with Leo, a man she met whole on a school trip with her friends in France. It was a turmoil waiting to happen. At one point in the relationship, Leo tells Allie, ‘I’m broken. Fix me, Allie. Please.’ It’s not her job to make him feel like a man, but she tries to anyways. Here, we’ll analyze why Allie’s relationship with Leo was so pivotal for her character’s growth, what actually led to the storyline, and why it didn’t surprise me at all. Let’s discuss…
Mary Bonnet: The Teen Mom, Rape Survivor, and Girl Boss We All Need To Guide Us Through
Mary (Fitzgerald) Bonnet is a real estate agent at the Oppenheim Group, the brokerage that revolves around the Netflix hit, ‘Selling Sunset’. Mary has been an agent there from the very beginning. She even dated her boss, Jason, at one point and they even shared custody of their dog that they got together. Throughout her time on the show in the 8 seasons, we’d seen Mary go through numerous changes in her life. She had friendships end, she got engaged, she got married, she got pregnant, and then she miscarried. She’s the most interesting person on the show, and she’s one that is women needed to see and hear from the most. It all starts from the very beginning; from the time that she was a 16 year old teen mom from a small town. And I’m not just talking about the show itself, but her book, ‘Selling Sunshine: Surviving Teenage Motherhood, Thriving in Luxury Real Estate, and Finally Finding My Voice‘. Let’s discuss…
Bre Tiesi: Does A Better Understanding Of Emotional Intelligence And Friendships REALLY Make Women Better Entrepreneurs?
The 8th season of ‘Selling Sunset’ was recently released, and it showed new, promising, and yet brief developments between Bre and Chelsea’s ongoing feud. In March, Chelsea filed for divorce from her husband, Jeff, and now we got to see exactly what the reason behind it was. In hindsight, Bre made it all happen. But what exactly was the motive behind her action? Was it to act it actually do the right thing and tell or woman-to-woman, or was it to destroy Chelsea’s life completely because she hates her? Here, we analyze whether or not Bre is a good businesswoman and a good friend, and whether a better understanding of emotional intelligence IS what makes a woman a better entrepreneur and vice versa – all based on Bre Tiesi and what we know about her so far. Let’s discuss…
Jennifer Lopez: The 5 Most Important Lessons On Love, Marriage, And Divorce – Based On Bennifer’s Entire Relationship
Jennifer Lopez has had a pretty rough year; both personally and professionally. But especially personally. After a whirlwind romance with Ben Affleck, Lopez officially filed for divorce on August 20th. According to divorce papers, the two separated on April 26th of this year, which made her actions during that time more and more understandable, like canceling her summer world tour. This is Lopez’s 4th divorce. We all thought Bennifer was endgame. The world was rooting for them, especially those millennials that grew up in the 2000’s. There WAS such a thing as a second chance at love. But after analyzing their relationship and its demise further, especially after watching ‘The Greatest Story Never Told’ more closely, it made me realize that maybe some things that were in the past NEED to stay in the past. Despite it not be the greatest love story never told, it’s the greatest lesson never told; 5 to be exact. Let’s discuss…
Dave Bautista: The Eddie To Pamela Anderson’s Shelley In ‘The Last Showgirl’ And What His Character Means To All Women Around The World
Dave Bautista plays the character of Eddie in ‘The Last Showgirl’. It was very surprising to see him in such a small film and in such a small role. He’s a retired WWE fighter. A strong heavyweight. That’s the type of characters he usually plays. But he took on the role because he wasn’t happy where he was in his career. This is what came to him when he spoke to his agent, as per what he said himself during the movie’s Q&A at TIFF, where the movie premiered. This drastic change in pace made me think a lot about men like Eddie – manipulative, cowardly, and weak in the knees – why women are down to them, what they represent, and the long-lasting effects they have on women’s lives – the good, the bad, and the very, very ugly. Let’s discuss…
The Last Showgirl: The Constant Battle To Be A Good Enough Woman – In The Words Of Pamela Anderson’s Shelley
‘The Last Showgirl’ is a beautiful movie that really showcased the constant battle a woman faces to be seen as good enough, no matter the age or what phase in her life she’s in. Pamela Anderson’s character, Shelley, makes an entire speech about it to a man that couldn’t give a f*ck about it at all when she’s turned down during an audition. We learn a lot about Shelley throughout the movie and how her life turned out the way that it did. We learn that she didn’t necessarily choose for her life to turn out the way that it did. This, as well as Jamie Lee Curtis’ recent podcast interview with Kevin Hart, made me think a lot about the harsh truths of a woman’s battle to be seen as good enough. Let’s discuss…
Jamie Lee Curtis: Does Being A Nepo – Baby REALLY Get You The Boost In Your Career Or Is It All Just A Lie? (Advice From The OG Nepo – Baby And More)
Jamie Lee Curtis has had a massively successful year. In 2023, she won her first Oscar for ‘Everything Everywhere All At Once’. Most recently, she won her first Emmy for her guest-appearance in ‘The Bear.’ Somewhere in between these two milestones, she finished filming ‘Freakier Friday’ with Lindsay Lohan, and she made an appearance at the Toronto International Film Festival for her film, ‘The Last Showgirl’. I had the massive privilege to attend the premiere of the film on September 6th. Watching the movie and getting to see the Q&A thereafter, got me thinking a lot about whether or not it’s actually a key to success to be a nepo-baby, in Hollywood and otherwise, coming from the OG nepo-baby herself, Jamie Lee Curtis.
