✨ Epiphany: A Revelation, A Reclaiming, A Reset ✨

Traditionally, Epiphany marks the moment of revelation—the arrival of the Magi, the unveiling of light after the long darkness of Christmas. AKA Three Kings Day, AKA the 12th day of Christmas. It’s the day that officially closes the holiday season. But there is another season just getting started…Mardi Gras Season!

AND younger generations—especially women—are reclaiming Epiphany as Women’s Christmas 💫

A day to exhale.
A day to rest after the labor of the holidays.
A day to gather in community, share food and stories, and celebrate joy without obligation.

Women’s Christmas isn’t about perfection—it’s about presence.
It’s a reminder that rest is sacred, celebration is communal, and joy doesn’t need permission. Grab your girls, get out and celebrate the end of one season and beginning a new one!
Take down the decorations tomorrow.

✨ Epiphany opens the door to Carnival season. ✨

King cake crumbs, bold colors, laughter, music, pleasure, and play—
Mardi Gras is coming, and we’re allowed to delight in it.

Here’s to revelation, reclamation, rest, and revelry.
💜💚💛 Let the good times roll.

🎆Happpy New Year!🎆

As we step into a new year, remember, you don’t need to reinvent yourself overnight. Growth can be gentle. Healing can be slow. Rest is allowed.

The new year is simply an invitation, an opportunity to continue caring for your mental health in ways that feel supportive and sustainable. Wherever you’re starting from, you’re allowed to begin right there. 💜

Wishing you a year filled with compassion, balance, and moments of connection with yourself and others.

🌼 Día de los Mu***os: A Celebration of Life and Memory 🌼

Today, we honor Día de los Mu***os! A vibrant celebration of love, remembrance, and connection.

It’s a time to welcome back the spirits of our loved ones, to share their stories, and to celebrate the ways they continue to live within us.

Grief and joy can walk hand in hand. We can miss someone deeply and still smile at the beauty of their memory. 💛

Whether you light a candle, build an altar, cook a favorite meal, or simply pause to reflect, may today remind you that love never ends, it just changes form.

🕯️ “To live in hearts we leave behind is not to die.”

💜 October 15 | International Wave of Light 💜

Tonight at 7PM (local time), families around the world will light candles in honor of the babies gone too soon.

The Wave of Light is a global moment of remembrance for those who have experienced miscarriage, stillbirth, or infant loss; a way to say their names, hold their memory close, and remind grieving families that they are not alone. ✨

To every parent who has experienced loss:

Your love is endless.
Your grief is valid.
Your baby will always matter.

We hold space for both the heartbreak and the love that live side by side in this journey. Tonight, and always, we honor you and your babies. 💛

🕯 Join the Wave of Light by lighting a candle at 7PM and sharing your light in remembrance.

🔆Indigenous Peoples’ Day 🔆

Today we honor and celebrate the history, enduring contributions, and cultures of Indigenous peoples' past, present, and future.

This day is also a reminder of the importance of acknowledging historical and generational trauma, while also recognizing the deep strength, resilience, and community care that have always existed within Indigenous communities.

Today and every day, we hold space for truth, respect, and continued learning and advocay.

Healing is not one-size-fits-all.
