A Little Mid-Week Gift for You 💛
Sometimes Wednesday needs a little extra something …
I've been working on what I'm calling "Glimmer Guides" - some deeper resources I sense are needed. Last week's summer activity guide was the first one, and the response has been incredible. But today, I wanted to share something smaller and immediately useful with everyone.
Introducing … "You're Doing Great!" BINGO
Before you roll your eyes at another self-care suggestion, let me be clear - this isn't that kind of BINGO.
The truth is, you're probably not actually doing "great" right now. Maybe you're just fair to middling, barely holding it together, running on fumes, underpass weathered and wondering if you're getting any of this parenting thing right. And that's exactly why I made this.
Because sometimes "great" is just making it through. Sometimes it's the tiny moment you steal for yourself between crises. Sometimes it's simply acknowledging that you're still here, still trying, still figuring out the next right step.
This BINGO celebrates those unglamorous, imperfect moments of self-preservation that nobody talks about but everyone needs - the kind that happen in real life, not in wellness magazines.
Share the Love
Know someone who could use a gentle reminder that their small moments of self-care matter? A fellow parent who might smile at seeing their reality reflected back at them? Please share this with them. Sometimes the most powerful thing we can do is help someone feel less alone.
What's Coming
This is a taste of what Glimmer Guides will offer - practical, real-world resources that actually fit our lives. Some will be comprehensive monthly deep-dives (like last week's summer guide), others will be quick mid-week surprises like this one.
If you've been considering a paid subscription to access the full guides and join our growing community of parents finding their way together, this is a glimpse of what's to come. But for now? This one's just for you, no strings attached.
A Quick Reminder
I believe in finding the next best step, even when it's not perfect, even when it's small, even when it doesn't feel like nearly enough. Because those steps? They're what actually carry us forward!
You don't need to be thriving to be worthy of care - especially your own.
Print this out, stick it somewhere you'll see it, and start celebrating those micro-moments that keep you going.
With midweek encouragement and hugs,
P.S. Seriously, share this with someone who needs it. We're all in this together.
