I\u2019ve always had a passion for finding ways to help women improve various areas of their lives, whether it be sharing ways to save money or effective fitness tips. So why a site on bras?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One day, I was out shopping at the mall with a friend and we were ranting about how uncomfortable (yet necessary) wearing bras were. She then told me that over 80% of women actually&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/staging.thebetterfit.com\/bra-size-calculator\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">wear the wrong size bra<\/a>, and I nearly stopped in my tracks. I didn\u2019t believe her, so I immediately said we were going to get bra fittings. Lo and behold, I come to find out I\u2019m wearing the wrong size!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From there, I researched and worked to create this website so women would have a place to come and be informed about an article of clothing they literally wear every day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My advice has been featured on high profile publications like&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cosmopolitan.com\/sex-love\/a26026697\/boobs-breast-shapes-types\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Cosmopolitan<\/a>,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bhg.com\/news\/new-smart-bra\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Better Homes &amp; Gardens<\/a>,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.insider.com\/repeating-outfits-without-anyone-knowing-2018-12\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Insider<\/a>, and&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcnews.com\/better\/lifestyle\/best-plus-size-bathing-suits-summer-2019-ncna1009316\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">NBC<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I hope you enjoy what you read, and if you have any questions, please let me know!
