We Didn’t Expect This to Be Our #1 Value (you may be surprised)

Dear Beloved Friend,

We recently sat down with our team to explore the core values of our business...the principles that guide everything we create, share, and embody. It didn’t take long for us to realize that one value stood out as a top priority for everyone on the team: FUN!

It may sound simple, but the more we talked about it, the more we realized how foundational it truly is. Fun is the spark behind motivation. It’s what keeps collaboration flowing, ideas alive, and passion sustainable. Fun reminds us why we started this work in the first place, to bring more light, laughter, and connection into the world.

We absolutely love what we do and are endlessly grateful that we get to have fun doing it. But it also got us thinking… when was the last time you checked in with yourself to see if you’re having fun?

We invite you to add a fun block to your week, something that brings you joy for no reason other than that it feels good, and share it with us inside our free community. We’d love to celebrate with you. 🎉

And while we’re on the subject of bringing more joy into work… we’re working on an exciting new project designed to revolutionize the workplace with more love and kindness.

If you’re an HR/People & Culture professional (or know someone who is) we’d love your input. You can help us by answering this quick survey here.

With love (and fun!),
Matt & Joy

May 2026: A New Cycle is Beginning For You
Dear Beloved Friend, Something shifted at the end of April. If you felt it — a restlessness, a quiet urgency, a sense that something old had ended and something new was waiting — you were not imagining it. This week, we sat down together to record our May 2026 Energy Update, and what came through felt important enough that we wanted to share it with you right away. This month carries a very spe...
A Message From Our Guides...
  Dear Beloved Friend, Sometimes, a message arrives. So potent, so timely. It feels like a direct download from the heart of creation itself, a whisper from the universe just for us. This week, it happened again. Our guides spoke to us about the collective experience we are all navigating right now. They gently brought us back to 2019, to a pivotal moment when a profound choice was laid before...
