Happy Sunday, everyone. After a wonderful week in Palm Springs, we were fortunate to have a three-day holiday weekend. Now, we are back to work, preparing some exciting things for all of you. We truly appreciate each and every one of you. Let’s dive into these amazing links!
This week’s house tour features a project by Victoria Sass of Prospect Refuge Studio. You might remember her from Em’s last book, “The New Design Rules”. Her use of color and texture is both fun and sophisticated. You have to see it to believe it!
From Emily: My dear friend Justina Blakeney has had an incredible career and is someone I deeply admire. From books to product lines, to art exhibits, to content creation, not to mention design – she is incredibly talented and prolific. She recently launched a book called “Grow” with her mom, a psychologist focused on personal growth. I just ordered it and can’t wait to dive in. Justina’s journey is so inspiring, and I’m proud of her for collaborating with her mom, whom she speaks of with such admiration.
Also From Emily: If you haven’t checked out Brian and my personal substack, I highly recommend it. We are having a blast sharing our thoughts and experiences. From relationship advice to personal musings, we cover it all. It’s personal, fun, and easy to read.

From Arlyn: As my daughter’s birthday approaches, I’m reminded of Lakeshore Learning, my go-to for educational toys. Their products are unique and always a hit with kids. If you need a gift for a young one in your life, Lakeshore Learning is the way to go!
From Jess: I stumbled upon a captivating video of a palace restoration project and couldn’t look away. I’m also a huge fan of esthetician Shani Darden and her skincare line. Her Retinol Reform is a game-changer!
From Marlee: I recently upgraded my hoodie collection with some amazing pieces in vibrant colors. They are incredibly soft and stylish. I’m also loving the crew neck I got in a beautiful pink shade.
From Gretchen: During a team retreat, I had the opportunity to indulge in an arts and crafts extravaganza. Working with chalk pastel pencils and acrylic ink was a revelation. I left feeling inspired and ready to explore new artistic mediums.
From Mallory: I can’t get enough of these silky scrunchies. They are gentle on the hair and keep it secure all day long. A perfect gift for anyone who loves a good hair accessory!
From Caitlin: I came across a thought-provoking piece on AI and the tech industry that left me both intrigued and slightly terrified. It’s a must-read for anyone interested in the future of technology and society.
Thank you for joining us, and we’ll see you again soon. xx
