Hey there, Reader!

I released two Winter Magic Sessions over the weekend, one on Saturday and one on Sunday. If December has started to feel hectic for you, grab a notebook and pen and take 20 minutes to watch at least one of them.

By mid-December, something usually shifts.

Even when we begin the season with the best intentions, this is often when the pace picks up. Schedules fill, expectations stack, everything is somehow a bit noisier, and the season we wanted to experience starts to feel like something we’re just trying to get through.

This season has momentum. It’s easy to get swept up in it, and that’s why I created the Winter Magic Sessions.

You don’t need to do more or squeeze more in, though you can probably stand to take a moment for yourself.

Right now, my favorite time of day is early morning, while it’s still cold and dark outside. I’ll light a candle, pull a blanket over my legs, and sit down with my journal. My dog curls up beside me, and the house is silent. That’s when I feel most connected to myself.

There’s no pressure or expectations. I’m just alone with my thoughts, able to untangle everything and appreciate where I am at that moment.

That feeling is what I wanted to offer you through the Winter Magic Sessions.

What These Sessions Are Here to Do

They are short, seasonal writing sessions inside the Better Days Start Today podcast. Each one is designed to help you slow down and reconnect with yourself and what matters to you.

❄️ Episode 114 focuses on reclaiming your intention when the season starts to pull you off course.

❄️ Episode 115 focuses on creating breathing room for December overwhelm, helping you notice where you can make things a little easier on yourself.

You don’t need to listen in order, and you don’t need a lot of time. They’re under 20 minutes and are structured like a guided journaling session. To get the full experience, you can watch them on Substack or YouTube.

If You Want More of This

If writing in this way resonates with you and you want a place to keep showing up on the page, I want to invite you into the Writing Wild Society.

​Writing Wild Society is a creative sanctuary for women who write to awaken their intuition. It’s a space to explore what’s true for you through writing, so you can bring it into your life.

When you can be yourself on the page, you can be yourself in life.

Inside the Society, you’ll find:

• Weekly writing invitations and prompts
• Live writing circles
• Space to reflect and chat with like-hearted women
• Community connection hours

Right now, through December 20, the Writing Wild Society is open at a special founding member rate of $9 per month.

Before you go, here’s a question you might want to journal on later today or tomorrow morning:

What would help me breathe a little easier this week?

I’m really glad you’re here, and I hope these Winter Magic Sessions offer you a pocket of calm when you need it most.

With love,

Adrienne
