My wife and I have been growing tomatoes in our garden. We thought that we only had two plants, but we have since discovered that those two secretly spawned a third tomato plant that has been happily growing next to them. Not sure how we didn't see it sooner, but the discovery certainly felt like magic to us.
Coloring in my latest mandala has been my magically mundane thing this past week. Seeing the whole come together as I color in each part of the piece, along with being completely present for the process, really fills me up.
Being in Sisterhood, with your actual sister or with other women, is Fully Awesome and definitely something we need more of.
Oh thank you so much for sharing my words!!! It means so much 🥹
I really do love these weekly notes from you! And I totally hear you on the Circle work... it’s the most healing balm I’ve ever experienced and so needed in this current world. There is something so medicinal about gathering with other women in real life and witnessing them. Excited to hear where the calling takes you xxx
Okay that is a genius idea, we absolutely should! Claire was saying in another thread that she's held circles before, too! Hmm now my gears are turning.
Lovely piece Hunter! So lovely to read about the way you described catching up with your sister. I’ve been very called to hold circles here and did a few when we had our tipi last year and the year before. It was very healing for me having birthed Luna alone. It sounds like there’s a beautiful call for you? ✨❤️⭕️❤️✨
It’s funny reading you write about heat because it’s almost autumnal in Northumberland. Today I met a mum friend and we had snatched bits of convos inbetween rain showers and hot chocolate and playing with our head strong 2 and 3 year olds - it was so special. Xx
Oh I love that you held circle! That's wonderful. I am feeling super called to it right now, so excited to see where this calling leads.
Haha oh my gosh I bet! I was facetiming my niece earlier who lives in Consett and she was all cozied up and I was SO jealous. I can't wait for cooler mornings, at least!
That sounds like such a wonderful play date you had! It's so special to have some time with a fellow mama.
I loved that piece from Jen too - related a lot to the slowing down od slow living. Getting to photograph your friend's wedding must have been such an emotional experience, those photos will be extra special to you both too. 🥰 And YES to filling your own cup! So important. 🙌🏻✨

Oh wow, how beautiful! It's like you made your own family of tomatoes! I love it, thank you for sharing!

Oh so beautiful! I love that, what a special practice.
Sisterhood is definitely needed in today's world!

Of course, Lauren! Your words are so impactful to me.
Mmm yes, circles are magical indeed! Thank you, I'm excited to see where it leads too!
Ooooh maybe we need to hold a little Substack community circle together and weave our magic together?!? 🌹

Yesssss.... listen to that sacral and if it’s a YES we should hatch a little plan!!! 😍

Yes! It was a great post of hers.
Ahh I was so emotional the whole time. And have been loving editing them now and reliving the day again. So special.
Aaw, how lovely! What a beautiful thing to be able to do for your friend too, love it. ❤️
Thank you so much! I felt just as honored that they trusted me enough to document the day, you know? It was really sweet.
