Loyal readers,

Yes, I hope you read that in a Bridgerton voice, because that’s how I definitely intended for it to sound. After 5 very long weeks, I’m back in your inbox and I’m here to stay. I have some news…

Introducing, The Work Wife!

I mentioned back in December that I would be shifting to a new service. This allows me to create more custom experiences for my readers, better user tools, and monetization opportunities (yes, I said the M word…. more on that later)

But quick, I have a question to help tailor your experience:

The new newsletter has a lot of exciting perks. Yes, before you ask - it still has the pieces you know and love like the giveaway + highs/lows but more things too!

Introducing an audio format where you can listen to me read the newsletter to you, the weekly R.E.P.O.R.T., expert interviews, community curated recommendation, and a paid subscriber option.

Paid? Come again?

You’re currently in the free subscriber list and I’m so happy you’re here.

For years my community has asked me how they can support me and I would say things like “share my posts!” and “comment on my reels!” but the truth is that none of that truly transfers into income for me.

  • It’s crossing my fingers and hoping that a brand that I actually love notices me. Not sustainable.

  • And that $8 drugstore lippie that I shared since you guys wanted more affordable options? Earned me a whopping $.36 cents per buy (and that’s only if you used my link). Not sustainable.

  • I earn a whopping zero dollars from all of the video content I post on Instagram and TikTok. There's no mid roll ads (like YouTube) so views don’t earn anything. Not sustainable

I started this newsletter 6 years ago and continued to create additional free content. I’ve loved every minute of it. This platform brings me so much joy and I love writing and sharing my research and life with you.

A $6/month or $60/yr paid membership option will grant you access to ALL future content, locked posts, exclusive giveaways, audio versions, and most of all my unwavering gratitude for supporting my work.

If you have found joy and value in any of the content that I create, I hope you consider becoming a paid member.

HERE’S WHAT’S COMING UP NEXT:

  • My huge 100k giveaway will be a newsletter exclusive and the secret password will come out in our Valentine’s Day edition along with 8 Things I Learned in 18 Years Together next Wednesday, 2/14

  • My detailed interview with hair specialist and board certified dermatologist Dr. Mislankar was SO juicy! We collected almost 1000 questions from you guys and answered all the most common ones! Yup, including how to regrow hair!

  • How To Plan a Pinterest-Worthy Party (complete with a checklist, mood board template, and my insider tips on where to save $$$)

If you are excited about the new format, can you reply to this email and just send me a heart? I love getting messages from you guys and I read every single reply!

I’ll see you next week for our first FULL edition of The Work Wife! Yay!
