Earth Day Every Day {10 Tips}
While we all know the importance of reduce, reuse, recycle, there are numerous ways to honor Mother Earth each and every day.
Here are a my top 10:1. Support farmers’ markets. Grab your reusable bag and hit your local market for flowers, fruits, and veggies. Or join a CSA (Community Supported Agriculture).
2. Skip disposable and tote reusable water bottles and cups. I also tote a metal fork, metal straw, and cloth napkin everywhere. Say “food only” when ordering takeout to avoid those extra soy sauce packages and plastic utensils.
3. Spread kindness to all beings. Recycle. Pick up litter. Relocate uninvited critters (yep, even those leggy spiders) outdoors. Tread lightly. Practice mindfulness.
4. Support slow fashion. Americans toss an average of 68 pounds of clothing annually. Choose quality and versatility. Watch The True Cost documentary. Try locally-sewn, eco-friendly TDJ (save 20% with code EARTHDAY through 4/23).
5. Use eco-friendly cleaning products (or make your own). Forgo the chemicals and go DIY infused with your favorite essential oil.
6. Go veg. Meat production is one of the largest sources of water pollution, greenhouse gases, and loss of biodiversity. 10 reasons why it’s green to go veg. Consider taking this week’s 7-day VegPledge.
7. Get your hands dirty. Plant a veggie or herb garden. Add pink impatiens or purple pansies to terracotta pots. Insert a pop of color with a bright green pothos or philodendron. Surround yourself with plants (you’ll note some of my jungle in the above photo). Plants for beginners.
8. Spend time in nature. Savor a dose of fresh air and put things in perspective. Einstein said, “Look deep into nature, and you will understand everything better.” Try forest bathing.
9. Get inspired. Tune into my podcast with Sophie Uliano, Ashlee Piper and Jennifer Maagendans filled with more ideas.
10. Compost. We keep our scraps (fruits, veggies, tea and tea bags, coffee grinds) in a tin compost on the counter and when it fills, we’ll empty it into our larger compost bin outside. Don’t have an outside? Many cities have compost drop-off spots. Fun fact: We only throw out trash once a week since so much ends up in the compost. More on what you can/can’t compost.
How do you like to honor Earth Day every day?Wishing you a beautiful Earth Day filled with plants and a deep connection to the world around you. Bisous. x

Bloom into Spring Tips
If you’re feeling ready to shake off winter’s doldrums and transition into spring with a renewed sense of possibility, I see you!
Let’s be honest, the past few months have been tough—from lack of sunlight, to upsetting news, to the constant chill, to a sense of heaviness in the air.
For me, there was the sudden loss of a dear family friend, exhaustion, and hip replacement healing issues.
I knew things had to shift.
After moving through the intense period of grief, reprioritizing, and resting, I’m reemerging feeling lighter and ready to bloom into this new season.
In case you, too, are eager to experience a shift, here are a few ideas:
🌸 Rest—get lots of it
🌸 Spend time with your journal. It can become a close, non-judgmental confidant.
🌸 Practice mindful self-compassion
🌸 Review your calendar and note what feels draining vs engaging. Incorporate more of the latter.
🌸 Focus on what you can control
🌸 Consume less sugar and more whole foods (or stop “eating like a child,” as a friend likes to say)
🌸 Get outdoors and savor sunshine on your skin (with a pop of sunscreen, of course)
🌸 Pay attention to your emotions and physical sensations. They have a lot to teach us.
🌸 Incorporate more movement into your day—dance, yoga, walking, biking
🌸 Learn something new
🌸 Get lost in a book just for fun
🌸 Take 10 deep breaths
🌸 Practice STOP: Stop, Take a breath, Observe what’s happening, Proceed with awareness
🌸 Get clear on your path. Set one-day, one-month, one-year, or five-year goals.
If you’d like to explore more of these ideas, on Saturday, April 15 I’m offering a spring online retreat from 2-4 pm ET. You’ll learn gentle yoga and meditation practices to nourish the soul, ways to detox your mind and body, how to create a wellness plan that works for your lifestyle, and my go-to self-care practices.
You’ll also leave with an action plan to help bring your spring dreams to life, renewed inspiration, and a deeper connection to yourself.
This event includes a gorgeous workbook, two hours of live programming, a one-hour pre-recorded video, and more!
May we continue to bloom into this new season, shed what’s not serving us, and create space for what brings us alive.

In case you missed it or would like to rewatch it, here’s the 25-minute replay.
Join me on Saturday, April 15 from 2-4 pm ET for our spring virtual retreat to learn my 15 go-to self-care practices, design a wellness plan, practice gentle yoga and meditation, and create your spring dreams through art journaling!
This event includes a gorgeous workbook, two hours of live programming, a one-hour pre-recorded video, and more.
Thanks for tuning in! Wishing you wafts of lilacs, visions of cherry blossoms, and the feeling of sunshine on your skin.

She’s Here: Introducing Balletcore
The new spring TDJ 2023 collection is inspired by my love for ballet, femininity, and flow.
Designed to be worn at the barre, at a Swan Lake premiere, while traveling, paired with a blazer at the office, and everywhere in between.
The capsule contains 13 versatile pieces that mix and match to create a beautiful ballet-inspired wardrobe. Dress them up or down, layer for a variety of looks, and let your inner ballerina out to play.
Now in our 21st year, we’re locally sewn using eco-friendly fabrics (and soft tulle) and ship in compostable mailers through a fully carbon neutral delivery service (when possible).
We also donate a portion of all sales to Pigs & Pugs Project and Borneo Orangutan Survival 🦧 and are a proud 1% for the Planet 🌍 member.
Below you’ll find the mood board that inspired this new collection. 💓 Thanks for supporting slow, seasonless, sustainable fashion.
