016. HAPPENINGS | OCTOBER 6, 2024 |
|
Hi dear friends, With fall upon us, we're taking a cue from Mother Nature and turning more inwards and moving a little slower as the air gets cooler and the days get shorter. If you know me or Zach… you know we're often in multiple cities a week, bopping to one beloved's celebration to the next, and trying to say Yes to what life offers. With this new season upon us, we're looking forward to dedicating more time to our creative projects, and enjoying the gift of being home more. We were also victims of a traumatic car accident recently – and wow. What a reminder of the beauty and fragility of life, and to make each moment count. At namuna, we've been blessed with some incredible support with new donors and new team members joining us. It's incredible to see this ecosystem come alive, and see how Namuna is taking a life of its own. We're excited to share with you soon… ❤️ I'm feeling deeply grateful to be in service to this work. Many of you have been reaching out for recommendations for trainings and guides to work with, and we love hearing from you! Keep letting me know if we can support you in any way. I love you, Elyse |
