What's bringing you the most joy right now?

Happy Friday, Mighty friends! 🥳

Let’s take a moment to pause, take a deep breath, and reflect—what’s bringing you joy today?

It could be something as simple as a warm cup of coffee, rewatching your favorite TV show, an uplifting or validating conversation with loved ones, the sunlight streaming through your window, or even just a peaceful moment to yourself.

What’s lighting up your day? 🌟

💌 P.S. If it’s been an especially tough or challenging day/week, we’re sending you lots of love and energy. We’re proud of you and hope the weekend brings you some relief and comfort.

How can you nurture yourself this weekend?

It’s the end of the week, Mighties, so let’s reflect on nurturing ourselves over the coming weekend! This can look like self-care, nurturing a hobby or passion project, spending time with people you care about, organizing/decluttering your work or living space, or doing something relaxing and fun.

Mighty staffer @sparklywartanks plans to nurture herself this weekend by sleeping in, relaxing, and taking a break from her phone.

How can you nurture yourself in the next few days?

On the path to healing?

Last therapy session broke me a little.
It was the first time I was brave enough to cry. To talk - just a few sentences - about all these doubts and the self critic I have collected and stored deep down since last spring.
I was not at all prepared and also not mentally capable of driving until nearly two hours later.

In the evening, the two cats of my boyfriend settled down on my blanket and the one looking at me sighed. I've never seen a cat do that. They purred until I fell asleep. I am so grateful for their trust and for their attempt to comfort me.

I feel very lost and out of place right now.
And my face still hurts from being operated on a little over a week ago.

Letter to my Inner Child

Dear Gloria,

For 33 years, you held onto pain and walked around with open wounds that nobody knew of. Wounds of a little girl who just wanted her daddy. You looked for him in everybody, and even in the shadows.

You spent so many nights crying and wondering why people continuously hurt you. All you wanted was protection and safety, and I'm sorry that so many people have failed you.

I'm sorry you were so lonely.

You are truly so beautiful inside and out. You are deserving of happiness, and of all good things that are coming your way. Your resilience is one of a kind. One day, you will mother children who will learn so much from you and will appreciate you for being so kind, loving, and strong.

You are free now, my love. Unbind yourself. Spread your wings and let yourself fly.

Love yourself always.

Yours truly.

Something that would make my living space more nurturing is…

Our living spaces are an important part of our daily lives and comfort levels (yes, even if you don’t spend a bunch of time in yours). It is in these spaces where we largely rest and take care of our basic human needs — from hygiene to preparing our meals to paying bills. Creating a safe space where we stay can have a significant impact on our health as well, since a good environment can help us manage and navigate stress better. And a bad environment can, well, add a lot of stress too.

What are some ways you can make your living space more nurturing for you?

Something that would make Mighty staffer @sparklywartanks living space more nurturing is reorganizing her desk and adding more affirmations to her walls.
