Walking into this space was the most “home” I’ve felt since arriving in Los Angeles. Bookstores and coffee shops are my safe spaces. The minute I walked through the door, I felt like I could breathe again. Before I could lose my courage, I applied to volunteer next door at @826la. After six months here, it’s my first baby step towards conquering my anxiety with this city and finding my own place in it. Have you found a space that makes you feel hugged when you walk through the door? Tell me about it. ⠀ ⠀ #aquietstyle #thatauthenticfeeling #littlestoriesofmylife #inspiremyinstagram #livethelittlethings #thehappynow #slowliving #livemoremagic #simpleandstill #ofsimplethings #slowlived #todaysgoodthing #quietchaotics #calmversation #tinytinymoments #inpraiseofslowness #smallmomentsofcalm #embracingaslowerlife #aslowmoment #momentslikethese #myeverydaymagic #noticingmagic #theslowdowncollective #joyspotting #chattycaptioncommunity

Sitting on the bed and planning out my week makes every Sunday feel like New Year’s Day (sans the hangover, though you can swipe for the fab mojito Kevin made me last night). Are you a planner? Bullet journal addict? List maker? Or do you just go wherever the wind takes you?⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ #planner #planneraddict #plannernerd #plannercommunity #bujo #moleskinerie⠀ ⠀ #collectivelycreate #courageouscreative #seekinspirecreate #independentmaker #stylingmycreativity #wearethecreativeeconomy #createeveryday

Y’all remember the #makesustain Stories I did here last year? I’m turning them into a blog series, and the first one is up now. It’s about how you can turn the “three pillars of sustainability” into point-of-purchase questions to make you a better consumer. The link’s in my profile. But ALSO?⠀ ⠀ I’m going to come chat on Stories today about our latest small, sustainable change. Who wants to talk compost?⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ #aquietstyle #thatauthenticfeeling #littlestoriesofmylife #inspiremyinstagram #livethelittlethings #thehappynow #slowliving #livemoremagic #ofsimplethings #slowlived #todaysgoodthing #quietchaotics #calmversation #inpraiseofslowness #smallmomentsofcalm #embracingaslowerlife #aslowmoment #momentslikethese #myeverydaymagic #theslowdowncollective #sustainability #lowimpactmovement #ecotips #ecofriendlyliving #sustainableliving #sustainabilitymatters #climatechangeisreal #lesswaste

Are you ready for a truly tortured metaphor? When a whale flukes like this, it means it’s your last chance to get a glimpse before it dives deep and stays underwater for four or five minutes. Wait for it...this is also your last chance to sign up for my newsletter before it goes out Friday morning. Only, unlike the whale, it’s been three years since I last wrote to my email list. 😳🤦🏻‍♀️⠀The link’s in my profile. Do it now! ⠀ #californialiving #beachlifevibes #californiadreamin #california_igers #caligrammers #californiathroughmylens #losangeleslife #aquietstyle #thatauthenticfeeling #littlestoriesofmylife #inspiremyinstagram #livethelittlethings #thehappynow #slowliving #livemoremagic #simpleandstill #ofsimplethings #slowlived #todaysgoodthing #quietchaotics #calmversation #tinytinymoments #inpraiseofslowness #smallmomentsofcalm #embracingaslowerlife #aslowmoment #momentslikethese #myeverydaymagic #noticingmagic

Did you see my whale-watching adventure in Stories? If not, it’s archived under “Life in CA.” As part of finding joy in 2020, I’ve been planning little adventures every month this year. We didn’t spend a lot or go out of our way for this trip. It was a 40-minute drive to Long Beach and a $25 boat tour, but we can’t stop talking about how amazing it was. What’s an easy, magical adventure you’ve been on? Or maybe one you can plan right now?⠀ ⠀ ⠀ #thatauthenticfeeling #littlestoriesofmylife #inspiremyinstagram #livethelittlethings #thehappynow #slowliving #livemoremagic #simpleandstill #ofsimplethings #slowlived #todaysgoodthing #quietchaotics #tinytinymoments #inpraiseofslowness #embracingaslowerlife #momentslikethese #myeverydaymagic #theslowdowncollective ⠀

Let’s pretend it’s not February and instead is a beautiful, barefoot, citrus-scented afternoon. Or we can not pretend, because that’s how it is here, for real. I’m still getting used to it. ⠀ ⠀ These are calamondin oranges. They’re wee and sour and I grew them myself. We’re juicing them and freezing the juice for future cocktails. They might just be the slowest, slow food drinks ever. ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ #aquietstyle #thatauthenticfeeling #littlestoriesofmylife #inspiremyinstagram #livethelittlethings #thehappynow #slowliving #livemoremagic #simpleandstill #ofsimplethings #slowlived #todaysgoodthing #quietchaotics #calmversation #tinytinymoments #inpraiseofslowness #smallmomentsofcalm #embracingaslowerlife #aslowmoment #momentslikethese #myeverydaymagic #noticingmagic #theslowdowncollective
