NEW YORK CITY, NY / ACCESS Newswire Summer is a season of transformation: a time to reflect, reset, and rediscover what truly matters. For readers seeking meaning beyond productivity or surface-level success, The Opposite of Empty offers a much-needed invitation inward.
The Opposite of Empty, published by Landon Hail Press, reached bestseller on Amazon in categories including Family & Personal Growth, Women's Spirituality, and Personal transformation & Spirituality. Book cover design by Rich Johnson of Spectacle Photography. Creative direction and styling by Samantha Joy.
Written by mental health professional and transformation coach Izabela Oquendo, The Opposite of Empty is a bestselling guide for women who are ready to stop performing and start living with boldness, authenticity, and purpose.

The book – part memoir, part self-help guide – was born from Izabela's own story of rupture and renewal. In the span of two years, Oquendo lost her father, reconciled with family, experienced a major fissure in year long friendships, sold everything she owned, and moved her family across the world to start again. She journaled through every step of that transformation. The tools and reflections that helped Oquendo through her dark night of the soul have now become a blueprint for reconnecting with your truth, even when life feels like it's unraveling.

'I wrote this book for the woman who feels suffocated by the life she once strived for,' says Oquendo. 'There are so many indicators of success that society trains us to look for, but there is only one that actually matters: freedom.'
Izabela Oquendo is a mental health professional, speaker, and transformation coach who helps women break free from fear and realign with their purpose. She is the creator of The Purpose Activation Blueprint and founder of The Mindful Waypoint, a platform dedicated to helping women manifest success through alignment. Originally from the U.S., she now lives in Spain with her husband and two children.
Paired with the companion title, The Purpose Activation Blueprint Workbook, offers a completely interactive experience. Each chapter includes reflection prompts that help readers identify what's no longer working and begin crafting a new vision for their lives. While the workbook is available for purchase, Oquendo notes that readers can also follow along using a blank journal.
'The Opposite of Empty is a blueprint for the woman seeking more out of life,' explains Oquendo. 'I can tell you from experience that once you find your purpose and live by it authentically, the life you dream of magically unfolds before your eyes.'

From navigating grief and strained friendships to unpacking people-pleasing and burnout, The Opposite of Empty is both a call to courage and a practical tool for transformation. At its heart, it's about reminding women that they already have the answers, they simply need the space and support to find them.
' The Opposite of Empty is not your typical self-help book,' shares Samantha Joy, Editor-in-Chief of LHP. 'It's a roadmap for those seeking their true purpose by way of important (often left out) areas of life including healing your inner child, building true and lasting friendships, and taking risks that seem illogical to most.'
Dedicated to creating a sacred and transparent space for writers, Landon Hail Press allows authors to own the creative direction of their book and their brand. LHP books have been sold on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, bookshop.org, and more, and featured in major publications like People.com.

I tried Amazon's best-selling headphone sleep mask — and it's my new favorite travel companion
I've been a diehard eye mask user for over a decade now and I credit masks with transforming my sleep. I can drop off pretty much anywhere thanks to the super-cheap eye mask I take on every single trip. The humble eye mask needs no improvement in my opinion but as a sleep writer I'm always trying things to help my rest, whether that's the joy of testing the best mattress for my sleep style or the misery of taping my mouth shut. And I was intrigued by the concept of headphone sleep masks, which use Bluetooth speakers to combine light blocking with immersive sound. After several nights of testing the sleep mask I've been pleasantly surprised and I might have found a new must-have for my carry-on. Headphone sleep masks are pretty self-explanatory — this is an eye mask with integrated headphones. There are numerous options available on Amazon but MUSICOZY is by far the most popular (the eye mask I opted for has upwards of 18,000 reviews, largely positive.) From the front, the MUSICOZY looks like almost any other blackout eye mask, apart from the control panel in the middle. Tucked inside the mask are two thin speakers, designed to sit over the ear. Using a Bluetooth connection, you can pair your mask to your phone, pumping music into your ear while you sleep without disrupting your comfort. MUSICOZY Sleep Headphones Bluetooth Headband: from $29.99 Amazon US / £25.99 Amazon UKEstablished in 2012, MUSICOZY sells Bluetooth sleep masks to customers in both the US and UK. Available in a range of colors (as well as a few different styles, for different face shapes) the MUSICOZY mask uses breathable materials to prevent overheating while the adjustable strap allows you to tighten the mask to a perfect fit. My first thought after putting the MUSICOZY sleep mask was "wow, this is dark." That's a good thing. The primary goal of any eye mask is, in my opinion, to block out light. If it can't, it's not a good eye mask regardless of whatever else it has to offer. Next came the set-up. Okay, I took the MUSICOZY off my head for this but honestly? I could have done most of it in the dark. Only three buttons are needed to activate the MUSICOZY and they're intuitive to use. I paired the mask quickly to my phone and after minimal fussing, music was pumping through the speakers. Admittedly the sound quality isn't fantastic. We review the best headphones at Tom's Guide and I doubt the MUSICOZY would crack the top 100. But that's less of an issue that you might expect. For white noise, soothing sleep sounds and calming background music, the MUSICOZY's sound quality is good enough. Then it was time to go to sleep. MUSICOZY promises the headphone eye mask is designed for side sleepers. After a bit of wiggling I managed to get ear, mask and speaker into a semi-comfortable position. However, with my left ear pressed against the speaker, the music was significantly louder on one side and after a full night lying on the MUSICOZY, my left ear was sore in the morning. Which is why I probably won't be using the MUSICOZY every night. But I will be using it next time I travel — it's ideal for helping you sleep on the go. I have a multi-hour road trip coming up (as a passenger) and I can't wait to strap the MUSICOZY to my face and completely disengage from everyone else in the car. Here's why... I tried the MUSICOZY eye mask in bright sunshine and dark night and the effect was the same: pitch black. The interior of the headband features padded molding around the eye with a soft nose barrier that can be prodded into place for total blackout. At the back, a Velcro band allows you to secure the eye mask tightly around your face, for no slipping no matter how much you toss and turn. On public transport, the MUSICOZY can effectively block out other passengers (even if they are your own family). High tech sleep aids can often be needlessly complicated but the MUSICOZY is small, sleek and easy to fit in your hand luggage (it even comes with its own pouch). It also looks like any other sleep mask, meaning you won't feel self-conscious about strapping it to your face. And it charges via USB-C (cable included), which means you can power up just about anywhere. With the mask blocking out light and music playing right into your ears, the MUSICOZY is suitably enveloping. In my bedroom, it was like being tucked up in a cozy cocoon. The effect is likely to be diminished in a public place but it should still help you block out the often unwelcome presence of total strangers when traveling. And once you've reached your destination, the MUSICOZY can help a hotel feel like home. If you're someone who struggles to fall asleep in new places, the combination of blackout and surround sound will help you feel like you're tucked up in your usual bed. The biggest point in favor of the MUSICOZY is that it succeeds as an eye mask, blocking out light and staying secure on your face as you sleep. As a headphone set, the MUSICOZY isn't great. But at under $30 that's not a surprise and the sound quality is best described as fine. Admittedly I'm not much of an audio snob, but I could listen to my favorite songs happily. And as someone who used to burn through cheap earbuds, I've experienced worse. Side sleepers and back sleepers should feel comfortable in the MUSICOZY, although it's best suited for back sleepers. This is standard for almost any high-tech eye mask, however, so it's not a point against the MUSICOZY. But in my opinion, the MUSICOZY excels as a travel companion. Light, comfy and immersive, it helps you block out all the other people on your long-haul flight. It's also affordable and while some users have found the battery ages poorly, it should still get you through several holiday weekends with the family...

27 Style Pieces Amazon Customers Love June 2025
Amazon has a list of products called "Movers and Shakers," which is pretty much just fancy talk for things that are currently ~trending~. Here are some of the most stylish and loved pieces of clothing and accessories on the list recently: A silky satin camisole because this luxe-looking staple piece adds a high-end, sophisticated feel to any outfit — and if you pair it with a blazer, I guarantee you'll be feeling like a Boss Babe. Promising review: "Checks all the boxes for me: stays on my shoulders without slipping around, hides my bra (straps, armpit, and back), super soft/silky, a nice V-neck without being too plunging, beautiful variety of colors. It's well made, with a lining in the top portion and a small dart at the arm pits to avoid that weird upper armpit gape that sometimes happens in camis. Fits true to size. There is a bit of give to the fabric. Good job, Ekouaer." —P SPrice: $19.99+ (available in sizes XS–3X and 44 colors and styles) A cap sleeve T-shirt that's casual but elegant, and more importantly, designed to keep your armpits and bra out of sight. Promising review: "This is a closet staple! I LOVE that the underarms have an extra piece of fabric so it doesn't show your bra. Fabric is a nice material, and it is not a crop top, which is such a nice thing these days." —Taylor Amazon CustomerPrice: $12.99 (available in sizes S–XXL and 25 colors and styles) A pair of high-waisted running shorts so you can take on your warm weather workouts, errands, and lounging in a breezy, breathable style. BTW, many reviewers find these as impressive (if not better!) than the very similar and very expensive Lulu shorts. Promising reviews: "So good. So breathable and the perfect length. The waistband is comfortable and doesn't ride up. A Lulu equivalent, if not better." —Peyton"These are the perfect running shorts. The elastic waistband is perfectly stretchy and has enough room. But somehow it doesn't move around when you're running. The cut on the sides of the legs is also very useful when you're running. The inside liner isn't uncomfortable and overall just 10/10." —Lisa MoonPrice: $28 (available in sizes XXS–XL and 21 colors) Or, a pair of high-waisted yoga shorts that reviewers love for everything from everyday wear to working out, including running. Folks say they're comfy, breathable, and actually stay put! Promising review: "I am completely in love with these yoga shorts! The fit is absolutely amazing — they're incredibly comfortable and the material feels fantastic against the skin. The length is perfect, hitting just where I like it, and they don't ride up. A huge bonus is the pockets, which are wonderfully deep and actually useful. What makes them even better is the amazing price for such high quality. While they're perfect for yoga, I honestly wear these as my normal everyday shorts because they're that comfortable and versatile. I'm already planning to buy more colors. Highly recommend!" —PhenixPrice: $19.99 (available in sizes XS–3X and 30 colors) A pair of sleek Lee trousers made from a flexible fabric and nonbinding waistband, so you can actually make it through the work day without wanting to rip your pants off. While you might be stuck going into the office again, at least you can still be comfy. Promising review: "Love these. They are stretchy and comfortable. I wore them on plane travel that took two days. Never gave me any trouble. They don't shrink, and I like the pockets. Nice material and they look nice on. Goldilocks dressy casual, not too tight, not baggy. I had to return the Amazon-suggested size as it was too big and too long. I've worn these with sneakers and loafers. Could do a dressy low heel too, with a dressy top, and it would be classy. I have them in two colors and will buy more." —MEPrice: $31.69 (available in sizes 2–18, three lengths, and 10 colors) A spaghetti strap shorts romper since it feels like wearing comfy pajamas, yet is cute enough to wear when you're out and about. Don't mind me living in this 24/7 come summer! Promising review: "I'm just going to say that I absolutely love these rompers! They are well-priced, well-made, and arrived quickly! The size I would say would be a true fit in terms of how you want to wear them. I personally like my rompers to be a little bit bigger, loose, and baggy, and the size I bought was perfect for that. Ended up loving them so much that I bought one more in each shade, leaving my closet with six of these rompers now. They're, in my opinion, just the coziest thing to wear during the spring and summer when the days are nice. Being out and about or just in the coziness of your own home, you don't have to worry about being uncomfortable or itchy in these. After my mom saw them, she decided to purchase some and has been loving them as well. Overall, if you are looking for a casual and cozy outfit, look no further because they will make you so happy annnnd they have pockets." —ShaunaPrice: $17.99 (available in sizes XS–XXL and 30 colors and styles) A soft ribbed V-neck tank that you'll find yourself reaching for again and again in the coming months. It's comfy, cute, and super versatile. Pair it with jeans, shorts, or a skirt, and then throw on a scarf, cardigan, or light jacket if it's windy out. Promising reviews: "I'm in love with these tops. It makes you look good. I bought three and am buying more. I've washed them and the color didn't fade. Stretchy and comfortable. Soft and lightweight garment." —Flormarina JaimePrice: $11.99 (available in sizes S–XL and 27 colors) A chic cocktail dress if you're in need of a reliable Little Black Little Red Dress, Little Blue Dress, Little Green get where I'm going with this. Point is, this lovely piece is a versatile staple in any color (and it comes in 12). Promising review: "I really like this dress. The material is soft and stretchy, which results in a comfortable dress to wear. The back zipper gives it a more elegant look. The dress is versatile, as you can dress it up or down depending on the accessories you wear. I liked it so much that I also ordered a red one. The fit is true to size. I'm happy with my purchase." —Amazon CustomerPrice: $25.99+ (available in sizes XS–XXL and 12 colors) A pair of boho-style shorts to help you ~keep your cool~ on super hot and humid days. Seriously, don't make the mistake of suffocating in heavy denim shorts — just wear these! Promising review: "LOOOOve these shorts. Only worn a few times, so hopefully they hold up to regular wear. They are really nice thickness (not denim thick but thicker than linen). They are pretty heavily dyed, so definitely wash separately. As others said, SIZE UP for a great fit. The drawstring is really nice. Deep front pockets! I'll definitely order more!" —benPrice: $24.99 (available in sizes XS–XXL and 44 colors) A pair of crossover-waist leggings with a trendy, somewhat sassy flare cut that'll totally add some ~oomph~ to your workouts, errands, and casual outings. And because I know you're wondering, reviewers confirm they're buttery soft. Promising review: "The material is buttery soft and has the perfect amount of stretch while still feeling supportive. The high-waisted V design stays in place all day — no rolling down! The flare style adds such a fun and trendy touch, making them versatile enough to wear to the gym, on errands, or even to dress up for a casual outing. I've received so many compliments while wearing them. They're true to size, and the length is just right for me (I'm 5'7'). The quality is amazing, especially for the price! I've only washed them a few times, and they still look as good as new. Highly recommend these leggings for anyone looking for style, comfort, and durability!" —Amanda SmithPrice: $12.49+ (available in sizes XS–XXL, four lengths, two inseam styles, and 32 colors) A classic pair of ballet flats since they're ~very cutesy, very demure~ and polite enough *not* to give you blisters. Plus, a pack of low-cut no-show socks to wear with your ballet flats and other summer shoes. No longer shall you have to choose between going barefoot (*shudders*) or having pesky sock lines showing (*sigh*). Promising review: "Love these socks! These stay on very nicely, even slipping shoes on/off. They fit true to size and feel comfortable. They have a little sticky stuff on the heel that keeps them from sliding around. Even barefoot, they stay on. They are thinner than normal socks, but going into summer, that is exactly what I wanted, something light that would keep my feet from sweating in my shoes, and they are low profile, so you can not see them wearing lower-cut tennis shoes. I haven't tried them on dressy shoes, but they seem like they would work for that as well." —MomOfTwoTeenGirlsPrice: $8.49+ (available in sizes 5–12 and 18 pack options, including three, six, and eight pair options). A pleated tennis skirt since it's basically just a flirtier, cuter version of bike shorts. Same comfort and practical functionality, only this style is way more adorable. 🥰 Promising review: "Super cute!! I received MANY compliments on it!! It was super cute and comfy. The shorts didn't ride up, which is a major plus. It accentuated my legs, which is a plus 💜💜!! I plan on purchasing in other colors!! So glad I purchased!!" —DionndraPrice: $19.99 (available in sizes XS–XXL and 22 colors) A Gloria Vanderbilt high-rise tapered jean if you've been searching for your new signature jeans. Reviewers of all shapes and sizes praise these for having just the right amount of stretch, a soft, comfy feel, and a stylish fit — plus a reasonable price, to boot! Promising review: "I have practically 'lived' in jeans for years, having gone through designer jean phases and different styles, etc. Lee's was my most recent and constant choice, though. But, after seeing an ad (and a really cheap price) on these, I thought I'd try a pair after looking at the fabric content and pictures. I LOVE THESE JEANS!!!!! They're high quality, comfortable, and fit GREAT!! So happy with the first pair that I went back and bought five more pairs in different shades of blue jean color and tan. Bet you won't stop at just ONE pair either !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" —Just MePrice: $18.94+ (available in sizes 2–20, including short and long sizes, and dozens of colors) A beautiful pendant necklace since every outfit needs a ~finishing touch.~ Depending on your style, you can choose from gold or silver chains and all different colors of pendants, some of which look like an opaque crystal and others like a sparkly gemstone. Promising review: "I absolutely love my Kendra Scott necklace! The craftsmanship is stunning, and it adds the perfect touch of elegance to any outfit. The quality is excellent — the chain is sturdy, and the pendant shines beautifully. I've received so many compliments every time I wear it. Definitely worth every penny!" —KristinaPrice: $60 (available in dozens of styles) A lightweight pullover sweatshirt destined to accompany you on crisp early morning walks and then keep you cozy as you stargaze by the bonfire late into the night. Plus, during the day, you can tie this around your shoulders for a very trendy European-inspired look. Promising review: "I bought it on a whim and wasn't sure if it would suit me, but I love it. It's one of my favorite sweatshirts. I love the baby pink color and the fit of it. It's not too heavy and decently warm for a mildly cool day. Very cozy and soft. I've had it for a couple of years now and still love it." —fountainheadPrice: $6.91+ (available in sizes S–XXL and 11 colors) A blouse with delicate three-quarter puff sleeves that taper into smocked cuffs, which makes it eye-catching without being over the top — and if you really want to stand out, be sure to go for one of the fun, exciting prints rather than a solid color. Promising reviews: "This is such a cute top. The sleeves give it a trendy look. It fits true to size. I would definitely order again." —Tracy Martin"Very nice top. Nice soft material. Has a nice feel to it. Nice and lightweight. Size is as expected. Highly recommend. Great for a spring or fall top." —ipyfePrice: $14.99 (available in sizes S–3X and 31 colors and styles) A pair of lightweight ankle pants boasting four-way stretch, super deep pockets (eeep!) and a casual-but-cool laid-back style. Reviewers are absolutely obsessed (and you will be too). Promising review: "These pants are so amazing, this is my second pair. The fit is perfect, the material is soft, and I love the deep pockets. They are my go-to pants now when I'm heading out. They can be styled up or more casual. You won't find anything to beat these for comfort. I highly recommend. They are true to size." —PamPrice: $34.99 (available in sizes XS–3X and 20 colors) A quick-dry water shoe to keep your feet protected (read: from touching slimy seaweed and pinching sand crabs) while you're splashing in the waves. Promising review: "Best water shoes I've EVER purchased! I got mine about three years ago, and I'm STILL using them! They are comfy and don't feel like a nuisance on my feet! My kiddos and husband liked them too, so I ordered the entire family a pair. Great value for the money and fit to size!" —chrisPrice: $6.99+ (available in sizes 3–14, men's sizes 2–13, and 44 colors and styles) A slightly oversize crewneck T-shirt that'll look totally on-trend with some biker shorts or French tucked into jeans. Best of all, you won't have to feel self-conscious or uncomfy when your ~hot girl tummy issues~ decide to make themselves known. Promising review: "Love this shirt! Material is soft, fit is loose, but not too big. Just ordered four more colors. Easy to dress up or dress casual! If you're looking for a flexible shirt to wear with just about anything, order this one. This shirt makes me feel great, not too clingy, fit is comfortable." —D ThorpePrice: $8.99+ (available in sizes S–3X and 22 colors) A high-waisted capri legging for days when you're feeling as indecisive as the weather. Hot? Cold? Pants? Shorts? Capris are the answer (especially when they're buttery-soft and supportive)! Promising review: "The perfect leggings! These buttery soft leggings fit great and run true to size. They can be paired with a cute top or tee for everyday wear or are versatile enough to wear for yoga, running, or your workout session. They are thin but not see-through! I will be purchasing more of these." —AshleyPrice: $7.49+ (available in sizes S–XXL, three styles, and 37 colors) A silky-soft fitted T-shirt that hugs your body for a smooth 'n' sleek look. Many reviewers find it quite similar to Skims tops, only this one is less than $10. 👀 Reviewers say to size up for a slightly less fitted look. Promising review: "Have bought these tops over and over again. They are 100% worth the hype, affordable, comfortable, and long-lasting. I reach for these tops more than my Skims ones." —Jasmine VillaPrice: $9.95 (available in sizes XS–XXL and 26 colors) A seamless bralette offering full coverage and reliable support *without* the discomfort of wires and chafing. Turns out they're NOT a package deal. Promising review: "I have been searching for a bra that feels like a soft bralette but actually gives me support!! As I've gained weight because I'm pregnant, my bra size has also gone up, and I love how this bra even comes with an extension for when I grow even more. The feel of this bra is perfect for the summer heat; the material is super soft and breathable. I could wear this bra every day and plan to get more!" —cesarPrice: $23.99 (available in sizes S–3X and 14 colors) A Hanes men's fleece hoodie that doesn't actually care what your gender is — it's cozy and effortlessly stylish on everyone. Promising review: "I purchased a black and ash color hoodie like two years ago and wear them both frequently. The quality is great. Also wore throughout both of my pregnancies. Perfect for a little oversized comfy hoodie — color is as described. The material is soft and cozy with a little stretch. I wash on warm and dry in the dryer, and it does not shrink. I've gotten so many compliments on them. The black color also does not fade. Highly recommend. And the price — can't beat it!! These are great sporty/casual/everyday hoodies!" —JessicaPrice: $14.92 (available in men's sizes S–5XL and 36 colors) A gorgeous floral cover-up with so many styling possibilities, it'll practically pay for itself by summer's end. Slip this on over your swimsuits, dresses, tanks, and other warm-weather outfits to give them an extra fashionable touch. Promising review: "I am so big into this kimono look. I now have four of them, all in different colors and lengths. There is plenty of fabric if I want to cross the front and belt it. It falls to mid-thigh in the back (the front curves upward). The first time I wore it, I got a LOT of compliments on it. I am very, very happy with this!" —anniebPrice: $9.99+ (available in sizes S–3X and 39 styles) A tiered maxi skirt for days when shorts or pants of any kind are simply a no. Pair this with a tank or cropped shirt for a fast, pretty outfit, and if you want to dress it up, throw on a blazer or some nice jewelry! Promising review: "What makes any skirt or dress superior? POCKETS! Love this skirt so much, I bought it in two colors! I love a full-length maxi skirt that you can dress up or dress down. As a mom of three, pockets are essential to my wardrobe, and I love that with this skirt I can have style and functionality. I get compliments on them all the time. Wearing the skirt higher up makes it so I'm not constantly stepping on it while I walk." —Amazon CustomerPrice: $34.98 (available in sizes XS–XXL and 34 styles) A cute Sketchers mesh shoe because you've reached that point in life where you simply refuse to buy shoes that aren't functional. According to reviewers, these are lightweight, easy to slip on and off *and* offer plenty of support (so you'd best grab these before your summer trip overseas). Promising review: "Wife has several pairs and kept telling me how great they were and the most comfortable shoes she'd ever had, dress and casual. Well, after continued 'you need a pair or two,' I finally bought a pair. And she was on the mark. Most comfortable shoes I've ever worn. Wear them all day and they still feel great. And best of all, they don't cost $200. Got mine on sale for $39.95 and wish I'd gotten two or three pairs at that price. Great value and highly recommend them. You won't be disappointed." —ChuckAmazon CustomerPrice: $34.50+ (available in sizes 5–13, narrow and wide widths, and 24 colors)
