How Was Your Week?
Have you ever had a week that just felt pummeling? As in, you whole body just felt like life was beating you into the ground? That was this week. Work has been a bit much lately, and a week of PTO is calling my name. It’s Friday, and all I want right now to be on aa restaurant patio gulping down the strongest gin and tonic.
In happy news, I received some lovely feedback on my newsletter Dear Darling which lifted my spirits! It’s free to subscribe, and I’d love to have you. In the meantime, have a loving weekend, and here are few fun things to pique your interest...

If you’re not on Substack, it’s a really interactive place to create and consume interesting thoughts, ideas, and reflections. If you find the right community, it’s a breath of fresh air from more curated social platforms.
Lastly, I watched the Diane Von Furstenberg documentary last weekend, and wow. What a life. Talk about a woman who knows what she wants. A great watch on taking control of your life. •
