We understand the stress we feel during family gatherings to seek joy, read to children, and ask engaging questions. A Letter From Our Founder   Hi there, I’m writing to you from an Airbnb in Carlsbad, where I’m gathering with my partner’s family for the Thanksgiving holiday. No one in the family lives here, and over the years, we have created a tradition of meeting…

We manage election stress, pick up trash, and boost self-awareness. A Letter From Our Founder   Hi there, The last month has been increasingly hectic.

We re-evaluate the “sex talk,” distribute food, and journal thoughtfully. A Letter From Our Founder   Hi there, Over this last weekend, I had the opportunity to attend a body safety workshop with my kids. I was glad to have been guided to this resource for my children; it was simple and straightforward and was facilitated by an expert in the field. At some point during the…

When we started working on the blog article this month, I was reflecting on social media’s negative impact…

How’s your nervous system holding up? June has been another whirlwind month. Amidst it all, I’ve found solace in the familiar. Oddly enough, what’s been comforting me lately are things that…

We destigmatize somatic symptoms, celebrate PRIDE and Juneteenth, and stay alert to toxic moms. A Letter From Our Founder   Hi everyone, Yes, you are receiving our May newsletter in June. Why? Because May won. I have never been busier and decided to offer myself compassion by allowing myself to get this out to you later than planned. May was chock full of delightful activities…

We seek to find resolution in romantic relationships (instead of having the same fight over and over), clean up Griffith Park, and make ourselves move. A Letter From Our Founder   Hi folks, Spring is here in full bloom, and I hope the sun has been warming your shoulders and your spirit. This month, I have often found myself vacillating between gratitude and guilt. These…
