Last weekend was magical...

We had our first retreat of the year for Soft Life Society - and honestly it was incredible to spend a weekend with a house full of like-minded souls who were there to support each other and just be together to heal as a coven.

But it also sparked a lot of interesting conversations - like the one I'm sharing today on Substack.

I missed the Sunday post and email because I was just too in the moment to break myself away to be online. But we'll be back to our Living with the Moon series on Sunday, but today I wanna talk about feeding folks...

New on Substack:
​Just Feed People

One of the strangest things about growing up Christian is realizing just how much energy gets poured into guarding the wrong gates.

I was raised to believe that “taking the Lord’s name in vain” meant saying “oh my God” when I dropped something or letting a “goddammit” slip when life got rough around the edges. That was the warning. Watch your mouth. Mind your tone. Keep things respectable.

But the farther I’ve gotten from religion, the more obvious it has become that a curse word was never the real threat. What it really means is using God to manipulate people into doing what you want in the name of religion.

Wanna help support the FLM?

The Free Little Market we run on our sidewalk serves roughly 10% of our town each month. And the need just keeps getting bigger and bigger the more this crazy administration keeps doing dipshit things.
​
When I say "WE" run it - you are a part of that. Your donations are what helps us keep it stocked and running for the past 6 months. And one of the ways we raise funds for it is with the Free Little Market stickers.
​
They're available with free shipping worldwide - so if you'd like to help us and slap a sticker on your cup to remind you that you're doing good in the world, you can find them in my shop 💞

Playlist: A Vintage Kinda Spring

Spring is OFFICIALLY here. The trees are all greening out and flowers are starting to bloom. All weekend we hung out on the porch having meals, chatting in rocking chairs and just enjoying the beauty of it. Which is exactly what this playlist feels like. Spring in your pocket.

Go out and be kind. Kind to others - but also kind to YOU. Because you are too important to forget, k?

Love you.
Mean it.
Big time.
xoxo,
