What I’m Reading, Watching, Snacking & Loving in February
I’m done with winter and needing more JOY in my life. I always have a book (or three) on the go and especially throughout the past month when my health has been challenged, I’ve been binging more shows on Netflix.
Here are a few things I’m Reading, Watching, Snacking & Loving right now:
‘The Light We Carry’ by Michelle Obama ~ Michelle Obama’s new book offers fresh stories and insightful reflections on change, challenge, and power, including her belief that when we light up for others, we can illuminate the richness and potential of the world around us, discovering deeper truths and new pathways for progress. (And you know how much I love this concept!) Drawing from her experiences as a mother, daughter, spouse, friend, and First Lady, she shares the habits and principles she has developed to successfully adapt to change and overcome various obstacles--the earned wisdom that helps her continue to "become." She details her most valuable practices, like "starting kind," "going high," and assembling a "kitchen table" of trusted friends and mentors. This is an inspiring read from cover to cover.
Aytipical on Netflix ~ Wow! Has this show ever hit home for me. This heartfelt comedy features, Sam, an 18-year-old on the autism spectrum, is going through the stages of growing up, finding a girlfriend, going to college and figuring himself out which sets Sam's mom on her own life-changing path as her son seeks more independence. The relationship between each individual family member and the world around them is captivating. I’m laughing, I’m crying, I’m learning.
High Fibre Snacks ~ Yes….not the most attractive food group, but let’s just say I’m becoming an expert in making my least favorite foods really delicious. We are all not getting enough fibre in our day to day diet and as the past 12 weeks have told me….it’s time to up the fibre game. Black Bean Brownies, Avocado & Quinoa Crackers and Dried Apricots have been my daily snacks and I’m LOVING it.
The Eminence Rosehip Triple C+E Firming Oil is a blend of actives and ingredients that provide intense hydration and protection. (These cold harsh winters are brutal on my dry skin and this oil is a gamechanger.) This facial oil fights the signs of aging, smooths wrinkles and hydrates deeply. I use 6 drops every night on my face and neck before bed and my skin wakes up happy.
I hope you can make some time to lean into your favorite things to Read, Watch, Snack and Love throughout February too!

With JOY,
If you know me well enough, you will know that I would rather do anything than sell my soul, posting about products that I don’t even like. This post contains affiliate links which I am so excited to recommend to you (and make just a little money from) and would hope that if you have the opportunity to recommend products you love, you would do the same.
