The Art of Making Life Magical(the newsletter) New moons = real rest 05.10.2026 I don't know about you... but the chaos of the past week is weighing HEAVY on my soul.

Which is why my entire purpose for this week is to REST like it's my damn job. New on SubstackA Matriarchal Guide to Resting Under the...

The Art of Making Life Magical(the newsletter) Every tiny action builds momentum 05.06.2026 I found an interesting article this week by Angela Saini on National Geographic. It's not even new... its from 2024. But it talks about how the patriarchy is a system of oppression that isn't as neat to digest as most people think. And it got me to thinking... we don't have to live this way. When women finally decide to put their foot down and live a different way, the world changes. So this week we're...

The Art of Making Life Magical(the newsletter) entering the magic of May 04.29.2026 Last Sunday, I told you this is a full moon week - and honestly it is one of the most beautifully energetic moons of the year. It starts the moon in all her splendor so she can book end it with the magic of a blue moon. Yes, the kind Smurfs were born on. Those witchy little guys were onto something.(I mean, did you ever think about their hats?!?)Anyways, two full moons in one calendar month are pretty rare -...

The Art of Making Life Magical(the newsletter) Stocking up on everyday essentials... 04.15.2026 This week's new moon asks you to rest and recharge... so we can tackle whatever life throws at us. And I know that it's been a LOT lately. But, if you're rooted and ready, then it's a lot easier to handle whatever comes your way. Prepared as protection, not panic... that's my goal. I hope it's your goal, too. So this week I'm brining back another Rooted + Ready post, because last week's was so well...

The Art of Making Life Magical(the newsletter) Are you Rooted + Ready? 04.08.2026 Happy Wednesday, my friend! A year ago I started a series on my blog, Rooted + Ready. Originally it was a plan to help you be prepared for a jump in prices due to tariffs, but with all the craziness going on in Iran right now, I feel like it's time to revisit. Because, I don't know about you, but it feels like every damn week there's another reason that I'm stressed out over with the madman in the oval office....
