our book selection
adulthood isn't quite what ellie allard dreamed it would be when she was fourteen years old
though she's got her beautiful daughter Lottie, her trusty cat Stella and life-long best friends in Magda and Nadine, her love life is non-existent and she feels like she's been living on auto-pilot, just grateful to be able to afford the rent on her poky little flat
but this year on her birthday, it seems it's time for all that to change - whether Ellie wants it to or not
as she navigates new, exciting and often choppy waters, she's about to discover that life will never stop surprising you - if only you let it
enjoy
think again

your ritual
joy is not a reward you earn, but a state of being you’re allowed to return to again and again
whether it arrives in bursts of belly laughter, quiet moments of delight, or the smallest sparkle in your day, this self-love and self-care ritual is your invitation to welcome joy back into your life… intentionally, unapologetically
enjoy this week's rituals
joy journaling each evening, jot down 3 things that brought you joy that day, no matter how small; over time, this becomes a love letter to your most radiant self
dressing joyful choose an outfit that makes you feel alive—whether that’s a silky set in citron or your coziest lounge look; dress for your mood or the mood you want to invite in
celebrate something random toast to the small wins; you finished that task? you kept a boundary? you made your bed? pour sparkling water or champagne and raise your glass; joy deserves celebration

in closing
no matter what your day holds, remember: you are worthy of joy in every season and in every stage
joy is not a prize at the end of productivity or perfection
by carving out space for joy, you’re not just caring for yourself, you’re honoring your spirit
your joy is sacred
your joy is necessary
