I'm grateful for fraud prevention calls.

This morning, I got a call about a transaction on my business debit card. It was not one authorized by me and I have the physical card in my possession.

Know where I've used it?

The federal government, for filing fees.

Tariffs suck. They're making my prices go up.... just not quite yet.

So, for as long as these tariffs stay in effect, I'm offering an electronic copy of my book to any Canadian or Mexican for *free*. 25% of 0 is still 0. πŸ™‚

Send an email to info@cleopatrasseeds.com and I will send you a link to access your free copy.

Don't get me wrong, I fully support the retaliatory tariffs AND that shouldn't keep you from accessing the strategies for getting and staying out of burnout that I've written about.

Sharing freely is part of my purpose. That includes sharing knowledge.

In response to the #tariffs that were put in place today, I want to ensure that none of my Canadian or Mexican followers are unable to get my book because of a tax put out by a madman.

The way that US businesses are acting like pussies about all this Trump admin stuff is something.

Like… y’all probably spend billions of dollars on lobbyists and swaying candidates and elections. All of a sudden, cat’s got your tongue?

Three original designs by yours truly, based on key messages in my book, are now available on a variety of goodies for your retail therapy/dopamining pleasure. Just make sure you're doing the actual work too!

You can find it all at my website store (bink in lio)

A chocolate brown hoodie displays the words "unpot yourself" with a watercolor illustration of a seedling on a pile of soil spilling from its pot between the words. The words and illustration are arranged vertically on the center of the chest. The  right wrist of the hoodie displays a peek of an embroidered green and gold phoenix-and-leaf logo just above the cuff. 

The hoodie sits on a yellow circle with white trim overlayed on a light gray background. It has one large, pale pink and green peony with waxy, dark green leaves to both the right and the left of the hoodie, framing it. The peonies slightly obscure a portion of the hoodie's arms.

A young, white woman with wavy a chestnut hair dressed in a loose long-sleeved black shirt and fitted navy blue pants stands against a white background.

She is holding a medium black canvas tote bag with her left hand, balled into a fist and held near her chin to support the bag at about waist height.

The tote bag has white lettering that says "you are a human being, not a human doing" centered on the front. The i in being is stylized to look like the outline of a person meditating. It is colored in a bright green ombre with the darkest greens at the bottom and the lightest at the top. Below the lettering is a small green and gold phoenix-and-leaf logo with the brand's name, Cleopatra's Seeds, in small white block lettering.

A coffee mug is perched on a light brown wooden shelf in front of a light gray wall.

The mug has a white body with a bright red handle and interior. On the face of the mug, the words "Mistkaes are how we learn" are written in black. Mistkaes appears to be scribbled out with bright red crayon, and the word mistakes is written above it in all capital letters, also appearing to be written in bright red crayon.

Below these words, a small version of the green and gold phoenix-and-leaf logo of the brand, Cleopatra's Seeds, appears. The name of the brand is written below the logo in small black block lettering.

Hoodies and tote bags and mugs... Oh my!

This has been a learning experience, and I finally have merch!

I've reimagined my business multiple times, and I've learned to trust my intuition more.

I'm hoping to have some fun new things available shortly because we all need goodness in our lives. More celebrations to come!

Today my book turns 1! It's weird to think that it's been a whole 366 days since I hit that *publish* button, and at the same time, a lot has happened.

I've published a companion workbook and paperback version (epub and audio still in the works),

Image of a Tumblr post that reads as follows:

Shocking how many people don't know that hens lay non-fertilized eggs and think the yolk they're eating is a baby chicken

krolewska-ksiezniczka

once tried desperately to make my friend understand that yolks were not, like, a liquified potentiality of chicken, and she looked at me for a while and then said, "but they're both yellow."

woolandflax 

Behold

[poster has inserted an image of a bright yellow lemon on a white background]

A chicken

Image descriptions that incidentally make the joke infinitely funnier.

I get the majority of my jewelry from this artist now. Her creations are all intuitive and have the best energy I've ever had come with a piece (sorry for the superlative, and it's necessary here). Highly recommend if you're looking for something fun, a focus, or a gorgeous holiday gift.

I'm glad you find it funny. Public health funding is about to fall apart. The vast majority of public health work done in this country is funded through either CDC or NIH. The infrastructural planning and progress made since the pandemic is getting ready to crumble.

You've got this! One chapter is nothing! Sit down, crank it out, and kick back with a celebratory beverage of your choice (hot tea is my go-to).

A bit too relatable. Can you please turn down the volume on this one?
