August Mini Mag

Anyone else feel that back-to-school energy creeping in? Even if you’re not packing lunches or shopping for gel pens, August always gives me that fresh-start itch. A return to rhythm. A soft reset. A new notebook vibe—minus the school bells.

This month’s Mini Mag is my version of a new backpack and freshly sharpened pencils.

We’ve got clean beauty staples that make your skin (and your conscience) happy—like the Coconut Mint Deodorant that really works, and OSEA’s Undaria Body Butter that makes me feel like I just left a fancy spa, even if I’m still in yesterday’s leggings.

You’ll also find:

• A delicious iced London Fog recipe that’s been my go-to tea ritual remix

• A graphic tee that says what we’re all thinking: slow down, you’re doing fine

• A dreamy crossbody bag that holds all your essentials and still feels pulled-together

• Whimsical forest crystal mushrooms to add a little magic to your shelf (or your soul)

• Podcast picks for your hot girl walks or your emotionally overloaded car rides

• A powerful piece on mental health + politics (because yes, your rage is valid)

• Support group info, therapist referrals, and a free guide to building real friendships as an adult

Whether you’re reworking your schedule, craving a reset, or just need something soft to land on, this issue is for you.

Here’s to new chapters, gentle routines, and finding joy in tiny, everyday things.

BONUS PERK!
