I am so excited to introduce a little treat that we can look forward to each Monday: Information + Inspiration. I have wanted to add this new series for a bit so why wait any longer! I hope that you will join in and share what’s hiding in your secret little files!
Each Monday: Snippets of information and inspiration — no essays (I Promise!)
InformationFiles:
–> Event: Simplify101 Organize Your Paper Clutter Online Workshop [Brand New Workshop! Starts Tuesday April 21st... and of course, I signed up weeks ago!]
–> Book: Every Monday Matters [Much more than a book: an entire online community and grass roots movement has started focused on the theme, You Matter]
–> Mind + Body: Making the Most of the Spring Mood Bounce
–> Creative: Kelly + Olive [Design Duo in Chicago who also do a ton of virtual decorating (check out this Apartment Therapy post) -- so if you live in Boston (or Australia), they can help you create a magical space with design boards and personalized tips. I just worked with them and and can't say enough positive things. They are talented beyond belief and so *incredibly* kind -- like sending me the sweetest email this past week out of the blue. They have a ton of different packages and are very affordable. Check them out!!]
InspirationFiles:
–> Wear: “I Live and Love with My Whole Heart” Cuff by Uniq’leigh Allison [There is something very powerful about this cuff. I wear it everyday and look at it often to remind myself that, I Choose Authenticity (written on the inside of the cuff)]
–> Blog: Wonderful Friend and Artist Anne Harwell’s Blog, Annechovie
–> Words: “At the time, I had no sense that this would become a precious memory… but now it’s so vivid… and tinged with the sepia tones of nostalgia. Amazing what become printed in our hearts.” — Joshua Freedman
–> Visual: Violet Marsh Photography [Be prepared for visual stimulation overload -- seriously. After you look at the beautiful photos, you have to see Tanya's home featured on Apartment Therapy. Seriously -- gorgeous, bright, happy -- want to live there now! Tanya is the incredible photographer behind Violet Marsh Photography. Don't be too jealous, but I'm working with Tanya this weekend on some fun new photos!]
–> Power of One: Josh Sommer [To describe Josh, I would have to write an entire novel. I am so grateful to be a part of Josh's life. He is redefining the word "genius." I met Josh while at Duke and cherish our incredible friendship. I've mentioned his organization a ton on here, Chordoma Foundation. You can read this article/watch the video clip for a quick overview. He will leave you speechless. Oh, and keep in mind that Josh recently turned 21.]
Bonus:
–> Mailing Label: Have you ever ripped a box apart just to cut off the mailing label? Well, I hadn’t until Thursday. I purchased the print, “Ignore the Rain Look for the Rainbow” from Studio Mela. The Label: Cutest image and then a tiny message printed on the bottom, “let me say thank you with my whole heart. i hope you love what’s inside because a nice person like you deserves a really big smile.” Not throwing away that label!
–> Journal Addiction: Incredible Gratitude Journal
Goals for the Week:
Me Time! Take a CoreFusion class at the zen, Exhale Spa and workout with Alissa on Thursday! [Note to Self: Need to get out of office chair to do both of these activities.]
