Hi there.
In early 2015, stressed to the gills and burning out fast, I realized that I needed to fill my life with beauty as a way to counteract the ugliness I saw everywhere I looked.
Since then, I have been curating a weekly email – sent in the beginning to a dozen or so folks, and now sent to thousands on three continents – that takes things like Hope, Beauty, and Joy seriously. Filled with links to beautiful things, like videos, music, and stories, it operates on the supposition that beauty will save us, if anything can.
There’s no AI, no algorithm. It’s handcrafted with love and intention, and sent out with the hope that it gives you a boost to face a challenging world.
I hope you will join me for a dose of hope and inspiration sent to your inbox.
