Happy October, friends! I just wanted to drop a quick line and acknowledge the new month. I always say September is my favorite, but then when October rolls around, I immediately begin to second guess myself.
The weather, the clothes, the flavors and smells. Bonfires and evening walks and all things Halloween. Breaking out the bigger blankets, the fuzzier socks, and the mugs meant for hot drinks. Yeah, this month is way, way up there for me.
I hope this October is a wonderful one for you and yours, and that you enjoy the coming days filled with crisp morning air, rich and vibrant bursts of color, and maybe one too many pieces of candy meant for the trick-or-treaters. ; )
The change in seasons always inspires me to grow in the areas I’ve felt stuck in, and this month I’m challenging myself to set a few home, health, creative, and professional goals outside of my comfort zone, and make a few small but powerful changes and habit shifts that I know will pay off in the long run.
We’ve been dreaming up lots of ideas for Beard + Bloom all summer long, and I think the slower change of pace that fall brings with it means that it’s the right time to focus a little more of our attention on this space. I can’t wait!
Here’s to an amazing, October!
