Brand new to One Little Word®? Click here for additional details.
You may have noticed that our One Little Word® collection for 2025 is releasing later than we have in past years. Unfortunately we've run into multiple issues beyond our control this year and are unable to ship One Little Word® items until early January. This is not at all what we planned nor what we hope for this project/product launch and we appreciate your understanding and patience as we work to get these items to you. Our goal is always to have it in your hands as soon as we can so you can get started on your project for 2025.

The early bird workshop price will be $45 and after January 1, 2025 it will be $50 for 12 months of inspiration and community support as you make your word visible in your life.
In 2006 Ali began the tradition of choosing one word for herself each January – a word she could focus on + get curious about as she went about her daily life over the course of a year. Her words have included play, peace, vitality, nurture, story, light, up, open, thrive, give, whole, connect, space, habit, less, heart, pause, joy, wild, and curious (2025). Each word has become an individual thread that weaves together stories of her life. They’ve been imbedded into who she is + into who she is becoming. They’ve helped her to breathe deeper, to see clearer, to embrace mistakes, and to grow.
At the end of 2019 Ali felt moved to change the way she was running this workshop and invited a group of people to join her in co-leading this adventure. Her goal was to bring in other voices, perspectives, and life experiences and to make it more about the wonderful, wholehearted community that comes together around this project.
Each monthly prompt (
available on the first of each month) is designed to invite you back into conversation with your word. Some are writing exercises, some are crafty adventures, some are rooted in photography. Our goal is simply to help you stay connected to your word throughout the year in a way that is meaningful to you and your season of life. Some of the lenses we've used in the past to be in conversation with our words include: vision, adventure, practice, small wins, beginning again, reflection, etc.
Here's a walkthrough of Ali's 2024 album project created over the 12 months of the workshop. Not everyone creates in this same way - some people just journal in a notebook and some people just listen to the content and the zoom calls - we are here to encourage you to make it your own:
In 2022 we added a live monthly Zoom call where we connect to share ideas, reflections and stories related to the monthly prompt. This has become a much-loved way to come together to learn from one another, to listen, to share our successes + our struggles, and to cheer each other on as we walk with our individual words. These calls are recorded and added to the classroom for future viewing on your own time. We make attempts to vary the time of these zoom calls throughout the year.
Our team believes in the power of documentation + the power of words to make a difference in our lives. You are invited to come get curious about your chosen word alongside us as we journey together in 2025.

A couple years ago we introduced a new product option for One Little Word® in the form of a
quarterly Mini Kit subscription. Purchasing the first One Little Word® Mini Kit commits you to an "auto-shipment" + charge of the remaining three kits at the time of their shipping. The remaining three kits will be charged + shipped on/around 3/15/25, 6/15/25, 9/15/25. The Mini Kits will ship free for $1 for domestic customers/$5 for international customers.
Here's the first mini kit for 2025:
The Mini Kit is excluded from the shipping threshold minimum for the shipping special. If any kits remain after we've shipped to subscribers then we will add them to the shop for $30.
