community is contagious


hey, spring roll.

as we round our way to the end of Q1, you might find your energy largely focused on your biz progress + plans

which is amazing. AND…

in the words of TLC, now is ALSO a great time to ask:

​what about your friends?​

let’s be honest + take a quick inventory…

have you been phoning in any friendships lately?

so overwhelmed with work + life that maybe you’ve taken some cherished friendships for granted?

or maybe you keep making plans with folks who energetically tear you down more than they lift you up because at least you know what to expect

are you partnering with people who bring vitality to your business, or are you stuck in stale partnerships that no longer fit?

are you passing time — personally + professionally — with the kind of energy + values you want to catch?

earlier today i was reviewing the big ideas i’ve built my business around, and the values i hold most dear

this was one of them: community is contagious

being intentional about the groups you stand with + those you condemn is more important now than ever

do they reflect the people you love + the values you want your kids or the children of the world to learn from + model themselves after?

where do the people in your life align themselves, through their actions or their words?

which relationships can weather fundamentally different values, and which ones do you even want to?

do you feel good about the people you’re sharing space, time + energy with?

where you do, go ahead + tell ‘em!

and where you don’t, what would feel better?

when you spring clean the cobwebbed corners of your home this season, consider doing the same with your relationships —

explore which ones are due for a little extra loving attention, which ones might need some tender mending, and which might be time to put to the curb for bulk pickup 🤣

same for those you follow on socials + allow in your inbox (me included)

here’s to getting intentional with your attention + cleaning house where needed

xxoo, cc

hey, maple bacon. real talk… if you tell me i only have 20 minutes to do a thing, most of that time will be spent in utter angst, trying to manage my anxiety enough to focus on actually doing the thing i’ll either get it done (but under such duress that i wanna blow off whatever i was supposed to do next) or i’ll find some possibly unconventional way to extend the timeline to allow me to do the damn thing in my fullest enthusiasm, attention + magic SO WHY IN THE WORLD DID I CREATE A...

hey, lime slice. the other day i wrote the following sentence: in small pockets of time i can get creatively constricted, painfully aware of the quickly approaching start time of what’s next a part of me REALLY wanted the alliteration + drama that would’ve come with substituting the word “cripplingly” for “painfully” — creatively constricted, cripplingly aware not gonna lie… i really love how that flows but you know what? a much BIGGER part of me cares that using a derivative of the word...

hey, sugarshaker. when you don’t really want to do a thing, you’ll crumble at the first obstacle to doing it that comes sure… you’ll feel shitty about bailing, but only just a little bit less than you feel relief at no longer being bound to do it in your belly or wherever you feel your emotions in your body, you may know the raucous duel between the sweet release of relief + the tight tension of guilt, shame + self-judgment and maybe you’ve forgotten that that’s not as good as it gets… that...
