So last week, with a cozy mug of hot cocoa in hand and the resolve to start 2025 on the right foot, I got [...]

The week between Christmas and New Year’s has always felt like such a strange in-between. Time slows down, but somehow there’s still always something that needs doing. This year, I decided to approach it differently. Instead of diving into the chaos of taking down decorations or trying to get a head start on my resolutions, I made myself a promise: to slow down, reflect, and really unwind. It started with something simple. I put my phone on silent for an entire day. No notifications, no mindless scrolling, just me, a journal, and a mug of [...]

Publishers Blog December 2024 | ’Tis the Season to Give… Yet Let’s Not Pretend: Most of Us Want More, Not Less

There’s a line I’ve hummed a hundred times, barely aware of the power in the words: “Everybody dies, but not everybody lives.” It’s from a song by Nicki Minaj, and while I’ve sung it absentmindedly, I recently caught myself truly reflecting on what I was saying.
