five rad finds from around substack
making monthly 10 lists, living like there's hope, and more!
five rad finds is a short and sweet series where i share things from my life and the internet that i’ve been loving lately.
icymi, i turned 34 last week, and it’s also the end of the year/commencement season on the college campus where i work, so needless to say, may is BUSY.
i don’t have any brilliant longform thoughts to share with you today, but i do have some great recent reads to share! one that’s not on substack but that’s fun because i’m quoted in it — it’s a look into Book of the Month, and i may or may not have thrown some shade… read it here! thanks to greta rainbow for reaching out!
here are a few rad finds from around substack:
📋 find #1: you need to be making monthly 10 lists, from keepsake
i loooooove making a list, a bucket list, a challenge, anything, really, but this is a fun spin on it! easy, manageable, satisfying.
🙏🏼 find #2: Sarah Bessey brings it home
needed this reminder.
📓 find #3: amy catriona with the journal inspo
this is so fun!! there are many days where i feel like i have nothing to put on the pages of my journals, and this gave me some great ideas.
🔍 find #4: the stories club is inspiring me
romanticize your life type shiiiii! i love it.
📚 find #5: Shellshocked with great AANHPI month book recs
fwiw, of the two i’ve read here, yellowface was a fave, little fires everywhere was not!
