Hello Everyone! ❤️

I can hardly believe we’re already in August — and there are so many lovely things to share with you this month!

First, a little personal update: I’ve been soaking up every bit of summer alongside my husband Bruce, our loyal pup Petra, and our newest furry family members — two lovebug kittens named Winston and Churchill.

Lately, I’ve been keeping busy with all the joys that come with the season: fishing to stash yummy goodness for winter, canning homemade jams, freezing garden-fresh tomatoes, and gathering herbs from the garden to dry. It’s been a fulfilling rhythm of work and play, and I’m so grateful for the pace of these long summer days.

I truly hope you're enjoying this beautiful (and thankfully, not too hot!) season just as much. And for those of you I haven’t seen in a while — I’d love to hear from you. Drop me an email and let me know how life is going on your end.

With love,
Persis

Podcast Pick: The Secret to Stopping Anxiety & Fear

With Mel Robbins ft. Dr. David Rosmarin

I listened to this podcast last week, and it was a game changer. It hit so close to home that I found myself in tears—honestly, I cried for a good half hour. But afterward, I felt lighter.

Anxiety isn’t something to fix — it’s something to understand.
In this powerful episode, Harvard psychiatrist Dr. David Rosmarin shares how to stop fearing your fear and start using anxiety as a tool for growth.

You’ll learn:

• Why anxiety is normal — and not always bad

• A 4-step method to interrupt spiralling thoughts

• How to support others without trying to "fix" them

A must-listen if you’ve ever felt overwhelmed.
