In this weekly newsletter, together, we celebrate small wins ✨. 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! 👯‍♀️}

Spring cleaning isn't just for your house—it's for your mind too. A busy mind is like a cluttered house; it needs a good cleanout. Tidying up can mean different things for different people. Whether it's cleaning, gardening, hula hooping, journaling, or taking a long walk, it's all about clearing out the clutter and making way for new growth. Sometimes, this process can be tough, like getting pricked by a rose bush’s thorns, but it's worth it. We can get through it and bloom. 🌸

K8's obsessed with weeding, just like our Grandpa Marvin who kept his yard immaculate and instilled those values in us. She hates bugs, though. For her, it’s an incredibly soothing and grounding activity that helps her find peace amidst the chaos. One time, she even offered to help Chelsea clean her uncle's yard—a girl's day centered around weeding. They spent the afternoon chatting, dancing, drinking champagne and pulling weeds, turning a mundane chore into a therapeutic bonding session.

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, Monsters at Work. 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.

WOO, SPORTS!

^{The Elephant Edition 🏆}

We ❤️ Ellie the Elephant, the ultimate mascot of the WNBA NY Liberty. Her dance moves? Iconic. With a killer fashion sense, a collection of handbags to envy, and always wearing Nikes, she's not just living in the moment—she is the moment.

In 2021, Ellie emerged onto the scene as the NY Liberty shook things up with their move to Barclay’s Center. Her name, a savvy mix of Ellis Island's significance—home of the Statue of Liberty—and the playful vibe of 'elephant,' nods to a legendary moment. Back in 1884, P.T. Barnum orchestrated a show-stopping spectacle, leading 21 elephants across the Brooklyn Bridge, just a year after its completion, showcasing its ironclad strength.

Now, let’s talk about a duo of trailblazers. Ever heard of Emily Roebling? She's the unsung hero behind the Brooklyn Bridge. When her husband, the chief engineer, fell ill during construction, Emily fearlessly stepped up, becoming the first female field engineer and guiding the project to completion over a decade.

Ellie and Emily? Total legends. These women epitomize strength, intelligence, and the art of pushing boundaries.

🏎️ 🏁 Congrats to Charles Marc Hervé Perceval Leclerc for winning his first home race in Monaco!!!! Such a special moment. brb, crying. Ferrari! 🏁 🏎️
