It’s been a week of thought-provoking conversations that hero the Beautiful Ordinary. ✨
One of my goals with Daily Glimmers has been to speak about it a lot… which sounds obvious but isn’t, I don’t think. The word glimmers is so sweet that I think the concept can come across as fluffy and light-hearted, and it’s really important to me that the practice is given its due as a mental health coping mechanism.
That’s why I want to talk about it: to remind people that glimmers are for the hard days, the dark times, the endless drudge and tunnel of ho-hum. That’s when we need glimmers: that’s when they shine.
I got quite emotional in this podcast episode with @penguinbookssouthafrica because my grief was so fresh… Give it a listen and let me know what you think.
Other heart-opening conversations I’ve had this week have been with the inspiring Eoin from @insuleoin (glimmers with a diabetes twist), the lovely @iamalexandrawilby (glimmers with a spiritual and parenting twist), the hilarious Elizabeth and Scott from Legal Off the Leash (glimmers with a corporate twist) and the wise Robyn from @musingsofasouthafricanbookworm (glimmers with a bookish twist). And of course the podcast episode I’ve posted about already with the delightful @glimmerhunters ✨
How lucky am I to have connected with all these smart, articulate people to talk about how everyday life is the gift: this beautiful ordinary life we’re living.
Let me know if there’s anyone else I should chat to!
