We blend the excitement of sports highlights with strategies to tackle those existential crises that pop up in our everyday lives. Share with your family & friends.

K8 & GINK

^{The sisters known as the Internet! 👯‍♀️}

The Beaver Moon is an ideal time to recognize the abundance around you as you build for the future.

On Friyay, Sierra and I went to see Marshmello! Yes, for the second time this year! This time, we saw him at the Masonic Temple in Detroit. I love experiencing Marshmello in a smaller, more intimate setting compared to the festival atmosphere of Breakaway. Even though Breakaway was awesome—Sierra and I got to sit on the grass—there’s nothing like being 100 feet from him. It was amazing. I really love seeing Marshmello perform!

We had an awesome time! He played such a great selection of songs, both old and new. I especially enjoyed the laser shows that accompanied each song.

Before the show, Sierra and I shared food at The Golden Fleece! 🧬 has been taking K8 and me there since we were very small! I love going there. Every time I’m downtown, I have to eat there. OPA!

Unfortunately, the People Mover was closed, so we walked from The Golden Fleece back to the car to drop off our dessert and then headed to the Joytime Collective show.
I really enjoy hanging out with Sierra because if something doesn’t go as planned, we can always adjust and make things better. I also had a sleepover with Aunt Jenny!

Saturday morning, I did some LAVA BRO research! I enrolled myself, King Bob, and Trail Bear in a Teddy Bear outing! This outing was Have a Party with Your Bear Day at For-Mar Genesee County Park. When K8 sent me the link, I wasn’t sure if I wanted to sign up, but I’m so glad I did!

Yes, there were 6–8 children there, but there were also two other adult participants (and one other husband besides King Bob)! It was nice having other adults participate. I wouldn’t have minded being the only one, but it was still a pleasant surprise. One person even told me about a Teddy Bear Sleepover that For-Mar hosts.

I think there were more kids at Marshmello than at the Teddy Bear adventure!

What I didn’t know was that this adventure included a really cute nature walk with Trail Bear! It wasn’t her first hike—not quite the Colorado Trail—but I think she really enjoyed it! We loved the random bridge, the small lake, and the fall leaves crunching under our feet. FRESH AIR!

I plan to do more adventures at For-Mar and other Genesee County parks. I’ll tell you about them in future newsletters!

SMALL WINS

^{Let’s dive into the *~magic~*!} ✨

In a world that's all about the big moments, it's time to give props to the small wins—like finally nailing that thing you put off & it only taking 5 minutes, catching a breather mid-chaos or hustling through a workout when you'd rather binge all the Netflix Christmas Movies. They might not make an impact, but these wins? They're the rizz to leveling up. So, let’s celebrate our accomplishments and manifest for the week ahead. 

Reply with your small wins to be featured.

WOO, SPORTS!

^{The Game Balls for Everyone Edition 🏆}

The Lions out-gained the Jaguars by 475 yards today. That's the biggest yardage differential in an NFL game since 1979.

Za'darius Smith is fitting in perfectly.
