"Soup is the food that makes a new mother feel loved. It's the simplest nourishment, yet it has such an impact... It says that you see what she's gone through, and you see what she needs right now." Heng Ou from The First Forty Days: The Essential Art of Nourishing the New Mother.

It's not by accident that I made soup the core offering of Revery. Soup is such a simple meal, and while it may not be the most exciting thing on the menu, it can be so nourishing and comforting. While lovingly cooking the Vegetable Lentil Curry Soup, I deeply hope each person who eats it feels nourished and held and that I'm right there with you. ❤️ -Suzi

We're so excited about this new offering from Sarah
and Tracie - they'll be hosting in our cozy comfy ABB office within the and we hope you'll join them! ☀️

"Tracie and I are feeling called back to the basics. We want to help you feel supported and confident in the day-to-day of breastfeeding; not just when there are obvious problems.
To make this dream a reality, we’re starting: “Nurturing the Journey”; a monthly breastfeeding group designed for all. Whether you’re exclusively breastfeeding, combo feeding, exclusively pumping or anywhere in between we want you there!
Share stories, ask questions, weigh your baby, check fl**ge fittings - all welcome. While this does not take the place of a follow up or initial consultation with us as your IBCLC, we want to support you in this new bonus way."

✨New ABB Collective Members :
Shannon + Victoria

Shannon Eastwood (she/her) is an alchemical energy worker who believes in the power of self-transformation through the technology of yoga and sound. As a healing artist, Shannon uses the vibrational frequency of sound to help shift our energetic state of being. Shannon played the hand bells as a child and rediscovered her appreciation for sound as she explored sound baths as part of her healing journey through cancer. Shannon is a 200 hour Yoga Teacher certified through the Yoga Alliance and has been a yoga practitioner for over 30 years. Shannon blends the power of sound healing within her guided yoga movement practices. Always seeking to learn and expand her practices- she’s studied around the world including Nicaragua, Italy, England, and Romania. Shannon holds a BFA in theatre performance and a Masters in Product Innovation along with a range of esoteric studies. Shannon reminds us to make space for intentional pause, rest & rejuvenation through self care as she leads with empathy, compassion & curiosity.

Victoria Aracri DeRoche is a novelist, Reiki /sound bowl practitioner, and former restaurateur whose work explores the psychic undercurrents of memory, trauma, and feminine truth. Her practice is shaped by a decade in the food service industry and a life-changing period of inner excavation that began when her restaurant, Nota Bene, closed during the COVID-19 pandemic. What started as personal exploration became something deeper—an act of remembering, releasing, and reclaiming. During this time, Victoria was diagnosed with Waldenstrom Macroglobinemia, a rare blood cancer. Undergoing treatment gave her clarity, urgency, and an unwavering commitment to her voice. It was after a successful round of chemotherapy in June of 2024 that she dove into exploring her inner truths through writing, meditation, sound bath study and becoming a Reiki master in October 2025. She is excited to bring her gifts to the ABB Collective with business partner Shannon Eastwood in their launching of Liminal Space ✨

Ever find yourself making sure everyone else has a plate… and then realizing you’ve only had coffee and a handful of crackers? 🙋‍♀️ Been there.

But here’s the truth: skipping meals makes it harder to keep your energy steady and your mood balanced. You deserve to feel nourished, too. 💚

Follow along at for quick, realistic meal ideas that work in real mom life.

Newborn photos are just the beginning!

Babies change so quickly in their first year, and milestone sessions capture those big moments—smiling at three months, sitting up at six months, and those wobbly first steps at a year.

These sessions document your baby’s growth and personality in a way that simple phone pictures just can’t.

If your little one is approaching a milestone, let’s capture it!

Whether it's a sitter session, first birthday, or sibling update, I’d love to create images that you’ll treasure forever.

Mention this post for 10% off any session .theinmansphoto

How we choose our clients :

We don’t say yes to everyone.
We say yes when it feels aligned.
When the energy is mutual.
When the vision feels like a soul nod.

Because our work is sacred.
And who we work with matters.
We choose with intuition.
With clarity.
With the understanding that the right fit means everyone flourishes.

We don’t chase clients—we choose them.
Through resonance. Relationship. Realness.
We’re not here for hustle.
We’re here to create meaningful, magnetic work with women who feel like a “yes” in the body.
If that’s you, you’ll feel it.
