It was so surreal, driving around New York City for the launch of our new single ingredient supplements, and by sheer coincidence, passing a truck wrapped with our company’s logo. The culmination of two years of hard work alongside this totally unplanned moment held all kinds of magic. We hopped out, in total shock, and did our best to safely run through this busy intersection as we approached the truck in absolute awe of this most unforgettable feeling. Thank you New York for your love, your infectious energy and your passion for supplements that work! What an incredible week, with our incredible team, in this incredible city! @absorbmore

We took off our shoes and walked barefoot on the forest floor. The aliveness of the forest is impossible to capture in an image. It is an essence, a feeling, an energy. The smell of the damp wood, the sap dripping from the bark. We tasted little drops right off the tree as Georgia our guide, told us about the healing benefits. The taste so pungent, so medicinal. I felt the rhythm of each step as we continued to climb, and I wondered if giving ourselves permission to live in the moment is the true medicine- a remedy that is as simple as the sap itself. The gift of not looking down, but around, as the sounds and the colors of trees and the moss and the tiny spiders crawling over my feet kept me right there. As we walked on I had a thought. While we often search for answers in books and screens, there is so much we can learn from simply being. By observing. Maybe our senses need to be brought back to life. Maybe we need to take our shoes off more often, walk ourselves away from blue light and computers, and head towards what calms the nervous system and resets the compass inside us. Maybe we can’t always read, swipe, or scroll our way into healing. Maybe… we just need to be. Ps the number of spiders that raced over my feet while I was walking was such a lesson in letting go!

A sweet little story about my dear friend @vanderjames . James was a treasure in every way. He lit up every room and every conversation, not because he needed to shine brighter than everyone else, but because his warm glow made you want to be near him. His soft, steady voice. His thoughtful eyes and gentle spirit. He was safe. He was kind. He was oh so very wise. The kind of person that could get you to think about life and love in ways that transform you. James was a thinker, he was a giver, he was a poet and a prophet. He was a beautiful beautiful soul, and had a gift with words that stayed with you long after the page turned. When it was his turn to speak, we all held our breath, ready to savor every nugget of wisdom. His depth was impossible to measure, his gifts endless. But above all else, he was a devoted husband and father to his beautiful wife @vanderkimberly my dear friend, and their six gorgeous babies. Two sides of the same coin, they brought out the magic in each other. The definition of soul mates. The definition of partnership. The definition of love. One of the most beautiful things about James is that he believed in people. Eight years ago I launched my little business. It was a moment that took tremendous courage, and total belief in this new path. How fitting that my friend James decided he was going to be one of my first bespoke clients. He came to me with one mission: to shower his beloved Kimberly with tiny tokens of love- not because he wanted to appear to embody the perfect partner, but simply because he lived it. Those two. Their souls forever intertwined, dancing from this life into the next. James, you always showed up with your heart on full display when tenderness was needed most. Not when it was loud, but when the moment called for love. One of the many gifts you’ve left us with. I am holding you close forever my dear friend, remembering you sitting in your back studio, on a sunny Saturday at your desk, jotting down thoughts we all couldn’t wait for you to share. You would say “I’m just back here writing today.” And on this oh so heartbreaking day, all I can think is that I cannot wait to read what you write from the sky.
A very special Galentine’s night in this very special space that holds very special memories, our Goodthings Shop at @1hotel.weho 💗 Oh how sweet it felt to be back in our home away from home. We shared hugs, toasted to long friendships and made new ones over pretty pastries and a pile of petals. The shop was filled with the most beautiful combination of perfectly imperfect @earthandelement pottery coupled with @bayouwithlove sparkles. And the making of our ikebana floral arrangements called in both joy and presence…such a sweet salve for the soul. After all, who doesn’t want a night of diamonds, flowers, clay and cookies? So grateful for evenings that celebrate sustainability, connection, creativity, and the women who show up for one another, again and again. I hope each bouquet serves as a reminder for the all of the flowers that are getting ready to bloom💕

How I feel, walking into 2026 knowing it’s the year of the fire horse…and it begins today. Not sure anyone could possibly be more excited for this than I am. Horses are our teachers. They remind us to lead with integrity, not ego, to move with purpose and demand presence. If we choose to show up ready to learn, we realize the lesson is for us, not them. My mantra for this year: I honor the fire within me. I move with courage. I trust my path🤍Let’s ride! 🙂
