💫 It's hard to believe it's already been a year since the first weekend guide landed in your Instagram feed on June 10th last year! Aside from a summer break in July, I've managed to share these guides consistently each week, and since November I'm sending them as a weekly newsletter here on Substack! The positive feedback I've received from many of you has been incredibly encouraging and motivates me to keep going. So I thought this milestone calls for a celebration! 🥳 We'll have snacks, juice, coffee, and some fun games. Come join us for a great family time! 🎈🤗
