In recent years, women have been plighted with advertisements telling them how they can "do it all,' but UK-based chocolate brand [Galaxy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hazelnut-vegan-chocolate-bar) new 'Choose Pleasure' campaign takes a different approach.

The commercial shows a young woman who is literally racing through life trying to manage her career, be a mother, a mentor, a granddaughter, and an activist. The Choose Pleasure campaign eventually shows the woman take a moment to herself and [enjoy a piece of Galaxy's chocolate](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/desire-a-bar).

According to Polina Zabrodskaya and Michael Jones, creative directors of AMV BBDo, this rebranding is part of Galaxy's "new tone of voice: more real, more relatable, and more entertaining. We know this woman, we are this woman, and we’re cheering for her to choose herself.” This new brand tone is a great example of companies trying to be more relatable to the struggles of modern women, and using simplicity to have females [slow down and enjoy the moment](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shacarri-richardson).
