Picture this: you’re curled up on the couch with a cozy blanket and cup of your favorite tea. Or glass of (good quality) wine. Or in a glorious epsom salt bath after a long day. Or laying back in your bed, in those few minutes before you fall fast asleep. Or even better? Snuggled up […]

  Since so many of you loved my “random things” post (back in the Fall), today we’re back with another edition, Winter style. You can tell a lot about a person when you ask what their latest obsessions are….. and after sharing a lot of these in passing lately, and keeping track of how many […]

Just like that, we find ourselves at the beginning of a new year. Flipping the calendar feels like the start of a new season. And there are seasons for everything: fast paced and slow, longer days and shorter ones, seasons of resting and seasons of going full speed ahead. Seasons are a good thing. So […]

Welllll, the season is officially here for gift giving, holiday cheer and cozy vibes only. And there’s just something extra-special and comforting about a homemade gift for loved ones. It’s going a little out of the way to put some extra thought, intention and love into a gift, and DIY gifts can be some of […]

If you know me, you know I love a cozy at-home situation. Dim lights, a warm bevvie in my favorite mug, soft music playing and preferably a soup simmering away in the crock pot. And for a lot of years, that scenario included allll the scented candles lit all around the house— especially in the […]

OUR ANNUAL SUMMER READING LIST 2022 IS HERE! Juicy page-turners. Ones that make you think. And ones that take you to a faraway place… that no screen could ever take you.  Summer and reading just always go together so well. It’s the ultimate relaxation & self-care, imho (especially paired with an amazing natural  face mask […]

  So, you all know I’m into a simple, efficient, low-maintenance beauty routine. It’s all I’ve got time for these days….but let’s be honest, that’s nothing new.  I want things that make my skin feel its best & glowiest, and products made of simple, clean ingredients. But that’s not always easy to do! There’s a […]

Sooo, yup— we’re going there today. Let’s talk about periods. And the feminine care products that come with them. Fun stuff, you guys! But really, when you tap into your menstrual cycle and get to know it really well, it uncovers all kinds of helpful information about your mood, energy, hunger, desire to move, hormones […]

Let’s be honest… on the days I’m NOT in leggings and a workout tank with a bun on top of my head, I want to feel a little more pulled together! Most of the time, I’m running around with 1 to 2 babies hanging off of me, and as much as I love that aesthetic […]

I don’t know about you, but I always need the reminder: that even during a busy day (or in the midst of a busy season in life) there ARE ways to slowly re-calibrate ourselves. That it’s not selfish or “extra” to do so— I think they’re actually necessary if you’ve got a lot on your […]

Let’s talk boundaries. They’re the most beautiful gift we can give ourselves, and also the most difficult.  Why? Because setting boundaries means putting our own emotional peace, margin, and mental health ahead of what everyone else in your life is asking of you.  ….. Which can be really, really (really!) hard. For women, I’ve noticed […]

If I had a cup of matcha for every time I said yes to something (or someone) in the past, when I really wanted to say no… ooph, I’d be swimming in a green pool. It’s a hard thing for people pleasers (both active and recovering) everywhere. Right? You’re having a busy week and someone […]
