Emelina Minero
Emelina lives her life guided by her passions: energy, self-love and inspiring others to love themselves and live their passions. These passions have guided her to create Community Bucket List and co-found the Love Warrior Community with her mom, Michelle Minero.
Community Bucket List is an online community that enables and supports people to achieve their goals and live their passions through submitting an action-oriented bucket list, goal-setting resources and an open Facebook group for people to share their goals, struggles and successes with each other.
The Love Warrior Community is an online community that helps people to cultivate self-love, self-acceptance and body acceptance through creative expression: photography, music, videos, art and writing.
Emelina is passionate about community building, both online and offline, and has helped create a LGBTQ club, Bridges, at the Petaluma Santa Rosa Junior College, with a larger goal of nurturing a larger queer community, for any age, within Petaluma and the surrounding cities.
Emelina is a freelance writer and writes for Curve Magazine, the leading lesbian magazine in the U.S. and EDGE Media Network, a LGBTQ news and entertainment portal for 22 cities in the US and Canada.
She's currently developing her own queer feminist publication which will focus on the diversity within the queer spectrum, as well as the creative and progressive individuals who are leading their lives by their passions to make a positive impact in the world.
Find Emelina on Twitter: @CommKr8veWriter and follow her and others' self-love journey on Self-Love Warrior, a group self-love journaling blog, where you can submit your own writing, as well.

Linda Vo
Linda Vo is currently a student at the University of California, San Diego working towards a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and a minor in Biology. Her interest in the study of eating disorders developed when she started working as a work-study student at UCSD Eating Disorder Treatment and Research Program and has since pursed this interest through taking various classes and learning more about the field. Her clinical interest includes eating disorders, trauma, and substance abuse. Linda’s goals and inspirations are to continue on to get a Master of Arts in Clinical Psychology with an emphasis in Marriage and Family Therapy and to provide individual, family, and group therapies to patients with eating disorders and co-occurring disorder.
