Mother’s Day Gift Ideas + A Freebie You’ll Love (Ends Tonight!)


Hi Reader,

I’m writing to you from North Carolina this week, where I’m gearing up to run a Spartan race with my daughter! 🏃‍♀️ It’s “only” a 5k (with obstacles, of course), but we’re feeling a lot less tough after watching her husband and his brothers crush the Ultra—that’s 30k and over 60 obstacles 😳. Safe to say, there will be no whining allowed from us!

I’m also putting a LOT of trust in my Happy Curves All Over Deodorant and Anti-Chafe Stick for the race—and packing their Comfort Powder + Puff for recovery later (thank you, Happy Curves, for sponsoring me💕).

🌸 Freebie Friday Reminder

If you’re catching this before midnight, don’t forget to grab this week’s Freebie Friday gift:

Still on the hunt for a thoughtful gift? I think this Happy Curves Comfort Powder + Comfort Powder Puff duo makes a really cute and unique gift idea—great for moms who deserve a little extra pampering.

🛍️ This Week’s Favorite Finds

  • Wind Chimes: I’ve been loving sitting on my back porch with a good book and these beautiful wind chimes. Bonus: they have a mute option, so no middle-of-the-night tinkling when you’re trying to sleep.
  • Doggy Dental Wipes: My dog Bella is not a fan of the toothbrush (basically turns it into a chew toy), but these dog dental wipes are a game changer.
  • Magnesium Powder: My doctor suggested this magnesium powder to help with anxiety, but bonus—studies also show magnesium may help prevent dementia, so it’s now a non-negotiable in my routine.
