Today marks an entire year of The List!!!
I set a goal at the very start of the year to write a weekly email with the only purpose being to add some fun and frivolity to your inbox. No agenda, no selling - just joy.
I hope you've enjoyed the past 52 weeks. It's brought so much to me. I love hearing the recipes you've made, items you've bought, quotes you've loved, books you've read and podcasts you've listened to.
It's so nice to share a little pocket of my world with you, so thank you for indulging me :)
I'll be back with more next year, but for now I am feeling a touch sentimental, and a little proud that The List has been here with you every week in 2023.
So without further ado…today we hit issue #52 of The List!! In it I'm sharing…
A quote with the best life advice
The book I've bought for the New Year
An on-trend piece I wore on Christmas
A twist on my signature cocktail
I hope you love the last issue of 2023!
I found myself nodding along to every single sentence of this quote. It perfectly sums up the person I strive to be. I'm a work in progress, but luckily I'm surrounded by someone who embodies everything written here. He does it so effortlessly and it makes me want to be a better person too. (Spoiler alert: it's Josh)
"Life advice: Always be the best person you can be. Be kind even when you're tired. Be understanding even when you're angry. Do more than you're asked, and don't ask for anything in return. Don't silently expect anything either. Listen when someone talks, and really listen too, stop just thinking of how you'll reply. Tell people that you love them and that you appreciate them. Go out of your way to do things for people. Be the greatest person you can possibly be and when you mess up, make up for it in the next moment or minute or day. One thing you should never do? Never spend your time trying to prove to anybody that you're great, your actions will speak for themselves and we only have limited time on this earth, don't waste it. If someone doesn't see your light, don't worry. Like moths, good people are attracted to flame and to light, and they will come."
