It is with the utmost excitement that I am announcing the soft launch of an incredible new box series created in collaboration with .wellness .studio. The Find Your/R&R series is focused on setting up heathy routines, taking time for rest, and reflecting on your healing journey. These boxes were created as guides with sustainable self-care tips included. We are offering the the Find Your/R&R Starter Kit (one box) or the Find Your/R&R Deep Dive (three month subscription). Swipe to learn about each of them! We are so excited to announce the preorders are going live after a technical difficulty yesterday. We hope you’ll love these boxes and cannot wait to ship them out after our official launch. Preorder today using the link in the bio 😍

My mental health and my identity are inextricably intertwined. I am not fully mentally healthy when I’m unable to accept myself as the boss b*tch that I am 😋Okay, but on a serious note, I came out last year on the last day of June. It was an…interesting experience. I didn’t get the reaction I necessarily hoped for, but this week, someone reminded me why I made this announcement public. It’s because in acknowledging who I was, they felt a little more sure of who they were. I don’t do any of this for glory. I started sharing about my mental health because representation matters. I am now attempting to do the same with my identity. So that’s why I created the “We See You” Pride Box. I wanted to highlight how special the LGBTQIA+ community is. The preorder is now live and it ends this Friday! Preorder all your self-care goodies for this June. All preorders come with a bonus gift 🥰🌈✨🌱 Link in bio my peeps!

There aren’t words for the world right now. There aren’t words to ease the pain and worry. So I won’t try to make it okay. But I will say I’m here. My inbox is open and my heart is open if you need someone to lean on. I’m over here spending time releasing tension and trauma in my body during this time. Please do the same if need be. Your health is critical right now. Self-care is a radical act in our society, and I’m here to help lead the rebellion. I love you. Please be kind to yourself and patient with yourself during this time. Reminder: this life is not a sprint. We are in it for the long haul 🤍🌱

LMy people! I need YOUR help. I’m in the process of redesigning my inventory selection and I want to bring you right into the process. I work with the amazing to create custom bath bombs.

Have you ever felt like your mental illness was really difficult to explain to those in your life whom you love with all your heart? Well that’s exactly where I was when I tried to explain to my friends what happens when my depression comes on. They wanted a peek into my brain so I tried to give it to them. Check out my new blog post: Episode 11, The One With The Rock Gym and Depression. To anyone who loves someone with depression and wants to understand, or to anyone with depression who wants to explain what it can feel like to those in your life, I hope this helps you 💙

My return to Instagram almost came last week but I wasn’t quite ready. I wanted to be ready more than I actually was. Today, I’m ready.

When I find myself in a depressive episode I usually go inward, shutting out forms of communication like social media and feeling unable to answer texts or phone calls (so apologies if I’ve been bad at responding, it’s forreal not you, it’s me). This episode came on with brute force and left me with a weakened immune system, which caused me to get physically ill too. The world has continued to be on fire with hate and pain and it feels like it never stops. So I needed to take a step back.

I’ve still been packing boxes and working on the business, but I’ve been less vocal. In that time I’ve begun to really dig into my own healing process to better understand what makes a difference and what doesn’t when engaging in healing practices. I’ve been tinkering and playing with new ideas and improving old ones. I’m making changes to be more effective in helping my community in the way I know how.

I know the world is exhausting, and I know mental illness is exhausting, but I feel my purpose in this work. I feel my purpose in this space. I’m feeling inspired to bring you the best of me and the best of mental health care. So stay tuned for some big and small changes. Thank you for loving me and supporting me in my absence. It has given me the strength to keep going. Even when I didn’t want to.

And finally, if you’re feeling alone or you’re struggling with your mental health, please stay. Please. I need you here.

With love and my groove starting to come back,
Mal

“Describe your brand.” Loud, silly, deeply compassionate, a little vulgar, inclusive, and honest.

I’d say moving into 2022 my words were confidence and authenticity. Confidence to be as I am. Confidence to execute my business. Confidence to make an impact in people’s lives. And confidence to live and work in a way that is authentically aligned with my values.

Welcome to Find Your/self Boxes. If you’re about mental health, self-care, living authentically, being goofy, swearing as a form of expression, and being welcomed as you are, you’re going to love it here ❤️

Inhale…two, three, four. Exhale…two, three, four. Show up for yourself in even the simplest way: breathing deeply for a few moments. Take a break from your phone if possible and breathe. Let your shoulders drop. Release the tension in your jaw. Were you clenching? Were you holding your breath? Remember, you’re human. Go back to the basics and breathe 🤍

Alright y’all, I’m sitting here drinking my tea this morning trying to prepare for the work day ahead, because sh*t has been stressful. I’m someone who cycles between hot drinks throughout my days to spice it up. But I’m curious, are you a coffee ☕️ drinker, tea 🍵 drinker, or hot chocolate 🍫 drinker? Comment below and tag your favorite human to sip with for a chance to win a gift card 🥰

Happy Friday my loves! Sip with joy this morning ❤️
