Whoa, spring. Whoa ⚡
Are you feeling the fullness and craze of springtime growth like I am?
The past 6 weeks have been incredibly full, starting with a tax day that had me sobbing at my kitchen table... since then, we refinanced our house, I created and taught three brand new workshops, and I led 3 weekend retreats. I've also cleaned up more cat pee than I care to admit (sigh, we're working on it), and I'm taking a 3-week long qigong class working with a sword (yes, an actual sword 🗡️).
And amidst all that movement, the year of the snake is in full activation. I feel a LOT of shedding, shifting and inner alchemy at play, both in my life and in the lives of all the people around me.
Today's edition of The Goods is here to inspire you to tend what nurtures you—including your body, your relationships, and your bank account.
Enjoy!
Dr. Stacy Sims 💪
is officially blowing my mind. I'm so grateful to my sister Claire for turning me onto her! I recently finished Outlive by Peter Attia which was amazing... and then while talking to Claire about my need to get more 'zone 2' exercise, she gently suggested I dig into Sims' work. It turns out this warrior woman has devoted her entire career and body of work to honoring the fact that "women are not small men" and should not try to eat, work out or do pretty much anything else like men do. I'm so grateful for Stacy and will be making her my go-to reference for health, hormone and fitness-related Qs. For all my female-bodied beloveds reading this, please go check this badass out asap.

Anam Cara by John O'Donohue 📖
I'm feeling nourished and soothed by this timeless book of wisdom. Meaning "soul friend", Anam Cara is a transmission about how we relate to ourselves and the world around us. A beautiful book for pre-bedtime contemplation.
Year of the Snake by Arcade Fire 🐍
In a season of change and shedding... we need anthems. Loving this one.
Prebiotic sodas 🥤
Confession: Ben and I are officially obsessed with the new wave of prebiotic sodas. They're cheaper and have less sugar than kombucha, and can be found taking over the shelves at your neighborhood grocery store. We love Poppi (Raspberry Rose is my fave) and Olipop, but so many brands are starting to catch this wave. Nice to see healthier options in the soda isle...
May these tidings of abundance help you cross the threshold from spring into summer with an extra spring in your step!
To a prosperous, flourishing season of change,
Ps. I've been tasked by spirit to offer a free summer solstice masterclass on the topic of... delicious beverages.
