If we are not watchful, it is easy to allow our identities to gently fold into the work of motherhood, caretaking, or our mission-focused careers. But each of us is valuable and uniquely worthy of love — not just as a conduit of care for others.
"Perhaps our annoyance with boredom stems from a fear of indecision, like the world is a blank page, and we're scared of what to write. Boredom puts us face-to-face with the emotions we’ve been putting off — it asks us to keep moving rather than sitting in our feelings."
This one is for the girls with curls. Pattern Beauty has become a true community favorite for a reason — their shampoos, conditioners, moisture milks, and style creams are some of the most moisturizing and defining we've come across, all formulated with ingredients you can feel good about, like avocado oil and shea butter. And if you haven't discovered their body line yet, the rich creams and skin-strengthening lotions are just as dreamy!

"My new favorite wellness supplement? Perelel’s Daily Resilience Complex. It's a fast-dissolving powder with lactoferrin to support iron absorption and immune health, and collagen peptides for joint, skin, and muscle support. It’s astoundingly easy to take, even for a mom of two with a busy schedule, and I’ve already felt an improvement in my recovery from exercise and wellbeing after a few weeks!" [Read my review]
A project one reader has been working on:
"Each week in The Angel Painting Club we gather through simple creative practice, reflection and encouragement plus meaningful community and connection. It’s a space to feel creatively alive again, breathe a little deeper, create without pressure, feel less alone and return to yourself in small, beautiful ways. It’s something I’ve always wanted to create and now it’s becoming a reality and I’m excited, anxious, nervous and scared. Thanks for letting me share." Cheering you on, T!
