๐ŸŒž Sunshine in Your Inbox

There are moments of sunshine all around you. This newsletter hopes to serve as an inspiration to find joy in your life each day.

In this week's Sunshine in Your Inbox, we'll reflect on our recent wins.


A Reminder to Acknowledge the Wins

When last did you stop to take stock of your wins?

We're so hard on ourselves and often don't take time to acknowledge all that we've accomplished. And often we push things to the side because they're small or we're onto the next to-do on the list. It's important to celebrate all wins and if you look at your day, I bet there are so many things that you can feel proud of!

So let's do that together as a way to pause and remember, damn, we're pretty awesome and have a lot to feel proud of.

  1. Did you feed yourself something nourishing this week?
  2. Did you work on a project that is challenging?
  3. Do you have routines/habits that are so intwined in your day that you don't think to acknowledge them as a win?
  4. What conversations did you have recently that sparked joy and connection?
  5. Did you smile at someone?
  6. When was the last time you did some personal reflection work?
  7. Did you try something new recently?

This is a list to get you started. If you had an answer for even one of these, that's a win!! Bonus points if you feel like sharing with me! I love celebrating with you so reply to this email with something that was a win, either big or small.

And as always, I hope today you choose joy, share joy, and celebrate joy!
