New York City - Today TLC announces the launch of TLCme - an extensive and engaging online destination featuring real-life stories full of heart, laughter and inspiration. A roster of knowledgeable and relatable contributors - including Stacy London, fashion expert and host of TLC's Love, Lust or Run - all share their perspectives and experiences, with visitors' own thoughts and sentiments integrated throughout the site via a series of regular social prompts, cementing the space as a true TLC community. In conjunction with TLCme's debut during MOTHER OF ALL WEEKS, TGI Fridays(TM) has joined the network as TLCme's launch sponsor.

"Our viewers - who we affectionately call our 'heart seekers' - come to us seeking a sense of community, and we've brought them honest, unfiltered programs with compelling stories that offer just that," says Scott Lewers, Senior Vice President of Multiplatform Strategy for TLC. "With TLCme, we're thrilled to be able to extend this conversation into a space where fans can engage with us and one another in a truly authentic manner."

With new content daily, there is a little something for everyone visiting TLCme - from Family and Home to Beauty, Style, Health, and Food. Whether visitors are interested in viewing roundups of the week's best styles, learning 14 new kitchen-cleaning hacks or reading how a paralysis victim surprised her favorite nurse by walking again, TLCme has everyday women covered.

"Just like the powerful personalities featured on TLC, today's women are balancing life's diverse set of demands and looking for sources of happiness, humor and helpful hacks," adds Courtney Reimer, Editor-in-Chief of TLCme. "Drawing inspiration from our TLC family, TLCme is focused on providing our visitors with a place to take a little 'me time' and catch up on trending topics and tips that help fuel their everyday lives and conversation."

TLCme debuts in conjunction with TLC's MOTHER OF ALL WEEKS - a full week of programming running from May 3 through May 10 focusing on all things mom with the network's favorite families and celebrating the extraordinary in the ordinary.
