Being someone who feels other people’s emotions so deeply can be both a blessing and a curse. You notice when someone’s energy shifts, you pick up on the smallest changes in how they speak to you, and sometimes you start wondering if you’ve done something wrong before they’ve even said anything. You find yourself needing reassurance that everything is okay, or carrying someone else’s bad day around with you like it’s your own. It can get exhausting when how you feel is constantly changing based on how everyone around you feels.

A lot changes when you stop living like that because there is no end in sight when you do. You spend less time replaying conversations, trying to figure out what someone meant, or feeling responsible for making sure everyone is okay. You have more energy for your own experiences, your own decisions, and the things that genuinely make you happy. Other people’s emotions no longer have to determine what kind of day you’re allowed to have, and there’s so much freedom in that.

Today’s plate includes:
-gouda cheese
-leftover apple pie
-roasted cashews
-crackers
-@nutsforcheese artichoke and herb spread

Introducing Fall Drinks That Are Not Too Sweet 🍂☕️ A little series for anyone who loves a cozy drink but doesn’t necessarily want it to taste like dessert. If you grew up hearing “not too sweet” as the highest compliment someone could give a dessert or drink, you already know the vibe.

First up is a Golden Turmeric Latte. This drink takes inspiration from haldi doodh, a traditional Indian turmeric milk drink that’s often made with warming spices like ginger, cardamom, and cinnamon. This version has a little citrus twist with orange zest and orange juice, which pair beautifully with the spices. I like it without any added sweetener, but if you prefer yours a little sweeter, a drizzle of honey or maple syrup would be lovely.

Recip:
-1 cup milk (I used oat)
-1/2 tsp ground turmeric
-1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
-Pinch of ground cardamom
-Pinch of black pepper
-2 thin slices of fresh ginger (or 1/2 tsp grated - will be stronger)
-Zest of half an orange (feel free to omit the orange all together)
-Juice of half an orange / 2 tbsp of OJ
-Dash of honey/maple syrup to sweeten (optional)

In a small sauce pan, add milk, turmeric, cinnamon, cardamom, ginger slices, black pepper, orange zest, and orange juice

Simmer for about 10-15 mins and let sit for 2 minutes. Add honey/maple syrup if using and stir.

Strain and enjoy!

People are going to have their own opinions of you, but I wonder how often we make those opinions bigger in our heads than they actually are. Sometimes someone really does judge you, and sometimes they’ve barely given it a second thought, but either way, it’s worth noticing how much time we spend worrying about what someone else might think.

Finding out you don’t actually want the thing you worked toward doesn’t mean you made the wrong choice. You still leave with more information about yourself, more experience, and more proof that you can move through uncertainty and figure things out as you go. You’re not starting over. You’re starting from everything you learned and gained getting there. . . . .

Trying to meet every new season of my life with a little more curiosity and a little less resistance. by @tinooverhere

You can have things you’re working toward without making every part of your life about getting somewhere else. The drive there is still your life.

The boring Tuesdays are still your life. Making yourself a snack, calling someone you love, laughing at something stupid, doing something for no reason other than you enjoy it, that’s all part of it too.

I want more for myself, but I also don’t want to look back and realize I spent so much time trying to build a life I’d enjoy that I forgot to enjoy the one I was already living.

@knix really said pick your Court 😭

Finally I can share this collab! I was absolutelyyyy floored when I first saw the Knix x A Court of Thorns and Roses (ACOTAR) collection. This might be one of the biggest collections I’ve seen from them, and there are so many intentional little references and details throughout…they really got into it with this one.

I’m wearing the Summer Court Satin & Lace Cami and Short Set, and it’s so lightweight and soft. Truly whimsical while I fantasize being in another world ☀️🌊

The collection drops October 15th, and I seriously can’t wait for you to see the whole thing!!

Which Court are you? 👀
