July Updates: Summer Fun, App Upgrades, and More
Lean all the details inside!
Hi Friends!
I hope you're soaking up the summer vibes as we wrap up an incredible Color Month and check out what’s on the agenda for the month coming up. June was a wild month around here personally — SO many doctors’ appointments, which take up so much mental, emotional, and physical energy. We’re also moving forward with plans to leave Michigan next summer so that my partner Jeff can finish up grad school.
I know I’m not the only one with a lot on my plate these days, and that’s why I’m so grateful — not only that you’re here hanging out with me, but also that you’re spending time on yourself and on your art + creativity (whatever that looks like for you in this season of life). It really does make my heart full.
In addition to all the personal stuff, I had a truly amazing time putting together my Daily Pages last month, playing with all the colors, and seeing all the incredible pages you all created as well. It’s one of my favorite Daily Pages notebooks of all time, and I hope you’ll take a few minutes to watch the flip-through video I made (see below).
I’m ready to head into high summer — it’s got some of my favorite things of the whole year — tomatoes, blueberries, long daylight hours, Awesome Ladies Live, and swimming weather.
And now let’s get a little more specific — Here’s what’s on deck for July here in the newsletter and inside my Awesome Ladies Project community.
🌈 Color Month Finale
Notebook Flip Through Video: Join me tomorrow, right here in the newsletter as I break down Color Month and share a video walkthrough of my Color Month notebook. I’ve highlighted some of my favorite pages and talk about the creative process. It’s been such a fun (and colorful) journey, and I can't wait for you to see the full project!
📸 LENS Magazine - Summer Fun
The latest issue of LENS is all about embracing the joy of summer. Keep an eye on your inbox; the full magazine drops later this week!
Daily Pages & Book of Me Prompts: Since the magazine still needs a few days before it’s out, we’re going to dive into July with our summer fun prompts right here in the newsletter. These will be available at the bottom of this email for our paid subscribers.
🎉 Awesome Ladies Live - Last Call in Michigan
Awesome Ladies Live is just a few weeks away!
Bad news: This will be our final Awesome Ladies Live here in East Lansing, Michigan, and we won’t be having an event next summer!
Good news: There are a few spots left for this final Awesome Ladies Live event in Michigan.
This is your last chance to join us for this unique gathering before we take a break. I’m re-evaluating future events after I know where we are settling down post-move, so don’t miss out on this chance to get together with me and the Awesome Ladies!
Learn more about ALL here — or look in your inbox later this week for a full rundown of what I’m looking forward to most during our upcoming retreat.
🚀 Website & App Updates
We're upgrading our website and app to make your experience even better. In the next few weeks, we’ll be transitioning to the new platform. Stay tuned for an invite to join our beta test—your feedback will be invaluable.
July is packed with creativity, community, and a bit of bittersweet change. I'm excited for what's ahead and I’m so glad you’re a part of this journey.
