Guest of Honor: Holiday Connection Thru Writing w/ Noted
Happy holiday season everyone! While maybe we're excited for the season, are you feelin a little funky too? That makes sense! We've been through a year of all years, and just at the time that we could be using that holiday connection the most, it's not very safe to do so. We absolutely might have some hard feelings come up, some days we just aren't feelin it.
AND this holiday season, we can get creative on how to connect and share a whole lot of life in new and different ways! We'll be talkin all about that over on the pod, and I'm so excited to introduce you to our first guest to do just that!
Allison, co-founder of Noted, a stationery store here in Houston, shares with us how we can use writing to connect with ourselves and others this holiday. From writing a note of gratitude, to spending time processing your thoughts in a journal, we've got so many inspiring ways to still connect with love ones, and take care of yourself too.
Listen to the episode below, and be sure to visit Noted in person in the Heights, or pay them a visit online! And of course, follow along with their amazing work and products on Instagram too!
If you’d like to follow along outside of the blog, it is also available on Apple Podcasts, Anchor, Spotify, and other sources.
On the Table:
This week, we’re gettin in that holiday spirit with pumpkin bread! I whipped up this recipe by the amazing Molly Baz and I can’t recommend enough.
Take Home Tip:
This week, start your writing habit by choosing just one person that you’d like to send a just because card to. Not for any special occasion other than to say hello. Online or in-store, pick out a card that reminds you most of them, and send them a little note using some of the writing guides Allison shares in this episode. If you’re wanting to throw in some extra moments of mental wellness, throw in some gratitude for that person or what you think is amazing about them too!
Thank you so much for listening, supporting, and showing up in your local communities. Here’s to creating more moments of connection this holiday.
