Background Information of Nic Hyl

I'm a fashion designer with 10 years of fashion industry experience from brands like Ralph Lauren and Norma Kamali, and before I got my degree in fashion design, I got one in psychology. I use the combination of my education to help people in unique ways.

When I first started my business, I noticed how insecure many of my clients were in their bodies. So I began creating conversations around improving self esteem, body positivity, and confidence so that people could feel beautiful in the skin that they're in.

In having my own fashion brand, many people have asked me for help to do the same. So I started online courses to help educate on some of the particulars of the business of fashion. As a Small Business Administration Award Winner, I love helping new business owners find their way and navigate some of the more intricate parts of being a small business owner.

Topics I Can Discuss:

Self esteem/ Self Improvement

All of the information within all of these articles are my personal stances that I am publicizing:

I am a Humanist Unitarian Universalist, I am a Unitarian Universalist Humanist (https://www.uua.org/beliefs/what-we-believe/beliefs/humanism.)

I am a Humanistic Buddhist. Humanistic Buddhism has been described (in a Wikipedia review) as focusing on caring for the living, working for the benefit of others, compassion and altruism. It is concerned with issues of the world rather than on how to leave the world behind. It is concerned with benefiting others rather than oneself. It is an essentially optimistic belief in the core dignity of humans and their ability to transform themselves in a positive way.

 I am a Humanist.

I am a Buddhist Humanist. Similarly, Buddhist Humanism is described (also in a Wikipedia review) as a philosophical perspective based on the inherent dignity of all humans, their interdependence, and creating harmony through relationships. It is expressed through actions that contribute to the welfare of society, human rights, world peace and social justice. 

I am also a Buddhist Unitarian Universalist or a Unitarian Universalist Buddhist (https://www.uua.org/beliefs/what-we-believe/beliefs/buddhism.)

"Why did the tradition eventually arise that these books were written by apostles and companions of the apostles? In part it was in order to assure readers that they were written by eyewitnesses and companions of eyewitnesses. An eyewitness could be trusted to relate the truth of what actually happened in Jesus' life. But the reality is that eyewitnesses cannot be trusted to give historically accurate accounts. They never could be trusted and can't be trusted still. If eyewitnesses always gave historically accurate accounts, we would have no need for law courts. If we needed to find out what actually happened when a crime was committed, we could just ask someone. Real-life legal cases require multiple eyewitnesses, because eyewitnesses' testimonies differ. If two eyewitnesses in a court of law were to differ as much as Matthew and John, imagine how hard it would be to reach a judgment."

"But if you think about it for a second, it makes sense that the empty tomb wouldn't make anybody believe. If you put somebody in a tomb and three days later you go back and the body's not in the tomb, your first thought isn't, "Oh, he's been exalted to heaven and made the son of God." Your first thought is, "Somebody stole the body." Or, "Somebody moved the body." Or, "Hey, I'm at the wrong tomb." You don't think he's been exalted to heaven. In the New Testament it's striking that in the Gospels the empty tomb leads to confusion but it doesn't lead to belief. What leads to belief is that some of the followers of Jesus have visions of him afterward."

"Americans seem stuck on the idea that morality comes from religion. It is a misconception that flies in the face of available evidence. Studies demonstrate that humans are hardwired for empathy.

From a very young age, toddlers will try to help strangers even if it redounds no benefit to themselves. And brain scans show we literally feel each other’s pain. As much as any religious text, our morality derives from this remarkable evolutionary feature that binds us together and allows us to care for one another as social beings.

Hiding one’s true views on religion can be stressful. You may be asked to join in prayers at public, family, and work events — or even asked to lead them. In dozens of Openly Secular videos, people from all walks of life of all ages, races, and ethnicity say what a joy it has been to be open about their secularism. When that “secret” is unleashed it often loses its intimidating power. Being able to speak truthfully of one’s understanding of reality and the natural world is a central aspect of self-identity.

Physical attacks are rare, though they do happen, but there can be alarming consequences to being openly secular, including the loss of family, friends, employment, and business opportunities."

"Did Jesus demand that his followers adhere to a set of beliefs about his birth narrative in order to follow or know him? No. The gospel of Mark which is considered the oldest gospel doesn't even mention it. 

Did Jesus teach anyone that they must believe in him in order to go to heaven when they die? Not once. The indisputable fact is that there is not even one verse in the entire Bible that teaches one must believe in Jesus in order to go to heaven when they die. Jesus said if they wanted to know what God the Father was like, they were to see how he lived and loved and forgave others. Jesus didn't say... "I am the Way..." to heaven. He said he was the Way to knowing the Father. 

"The term “enabler” generally describes someone whose behavior allows a loved one to continue self-destructive patterns of behavior.

This term can be stigmatizing since there’s often negative judgment attached to it. However, many people who enable others don’t do so intentionally. They may not even realize what they’re doing.

Enabling usually refers to patterns that appear in the context of drug or alcohol misuse and addiction. But according to the American Psychological Association, it can refer to patterns within close relationships that support any harmful or problematic behavior and make it easier for that behavior to continue.

Enabling doesn’t mean you support your loved one’s addiction or other behavior. You might believe if you don’t help, the outcome for everyone involved will be far worse. Maybe you excuse troubling behavior, lend money, or assist in other ways.

But it’s important to realize enabling doesn’t really help. Over time it can have a damaging effect on your loved one and others around them. It’s difficult for someone to get help if they don’t fully see the consequences of their actions.

If you’re concerned you might be enabling someone’s behavior, read on to learn more about enabling, including signs, how to stop, and how to provide support to your loved one.

It’s not always easy to distinguish between empowering someone and enabling them. There may be little difference between the two.

Most people who enable loved ones don’t intend to cause harm. In fact, enabling generally begins with the desire to help. Enabling behaviors can often seem like helping behaviors. You may try to help with the best of intentions and enable someone without realizing it.

But empowering someone doesn’t mean solving or covering up problems. Rather, when you empower someone, you do one or more of the following to help them succeed or change on their own:

In other words, you give them the power to make their own choices and solve problems.

Enabling often describes situations involving addiction or substance misuse. But this isn’t always the case. Enabling can describe any situation where you “help” by attempting to hide problems or make them go away.

This help is ultimately not helpful, as it usually doesn’t make a problem entirely go away. It often makes it worse since an enabled person has less motivation to make changes if they keep getting help that reduces their need to make change."

https://feministporn.org/a-brief-history-of-feminist-porn/

The porn industry is diverse and there is currently no official “ethical porn” label. Attempts have been made to create a brand but it is difficult to get a consensus on what ethical porn looks like. As a consumer, you can look for some of these things:

Ethical porn consumption involves researching what companies make good porn but it also involves being willing to pay for it. Piracy has reduced the marketplace for porn and resulted in lower pay for performers and producers. If you want to see more ethical, feminist porn, it’s important to pay for it. This way the creators and performers are supported, everyone can be paid well and money can be re-invested into more quality productions.

Ethical porn — where having boundaries and personal limits is respected, where everyone is happy, healthy, and excited to be a part of the scene, where we can explore our sexuality in a healthy controlled environment — this can be the norm. We can make the industry sex positive and a safe place for performers, but it has to start somewhere. I do hope we can pave the way for future performers to have an easier and more positive experience than I know most have, and it begins with demanding better treatment and respect.

Put simply, ethical porn is pornography that is fair, equitable and consensual. It is porn that centers the welfare of performers in its production practices, that is transparent in its operations and that doesn’t engage in harmful or negative post-production marketing. Ethical porn can depict a wide range of sex acts and performers; it is not restricted to any one group of producers or performers. Ethical porn exists within the wider movement of feminist porn and it is also made by mainstream US and European adult companies. It can also include any kind of production value – from amateur video to high-end studio productions. The main thing is the commitment to good labour practices, consent, transparency and social justice."

"What’s the intersection between motherhood and sexuality? Perhaps no one knows better than Erika Lust, an award-winning erotic filmmaker and mother of two young daughters, aged 6 and 10. Born in Sweden and based in Barcelona, Lust (not her real name) has been creating content about female desire since 2005 and describes herself as a feminist provocateur who’s revolutionizing pornography. Her independent company, LustCinema, has grown into a veritable empire of the sexual arts, while she speaks out against misogyny and celebrates healthy and intelligent sexuality.

On the first episode of Rashida Jones’ Netflix docuseries Hot Girls Wanted, Lust explains she wants to capture the emotional aspects of sex in her work, not just erections and orifices. She achieves this through an innovative and interactive project, XConfessions, where users share their personal sex stories and fantasies. Each month, Lust chooses her favorite two fantasies (like one in which a female pianist climaxes on-stage) and turns them into short films, creating alternative adult cinema with high production value and a focus on storytelling. This is nothing short of revolutionary in the current world of porn, but she's not done. She also wants to see a revolution in the way we talk about sex off-screen."
