Tuesday, 11/16 - TELL A FRIEND WHY YOU'RE THANKFUL FOR THEM
In either an in-feed Instagram post, Facebook post, reel, TikTok, or story slide, thank a special person in your life. Tell them why you're grateful for them and how your life is better because they're in it! Looking for other ways to thank a friend in a more personable way? Send them a card via snail mail, a sweet email, Door Dash or Starbucks gift card, or send them a gift card from a local restaurant or shop to help support small businesses within your community.
Wednesday, 11/17 through Saturday, 11/20 - RANDOM ACTS OF KINDNESS
Let's all spread a little joy together for a few days! We're challenging you to practice random acts of kindness sometime between 11/17-11/19. Here are some ideas:

- Speaking of coffee, bring a friend our homemade pumpkin spice latte with sugar-free pumpkin spice whipped cream!
- Clean out your closet and donate any old kids or adult clothing to a local women's shelter.
- Know someone who had a new baby or who's feeling under the weather? Make them a nourishing soup, crockpot meal, or their favorite comfort food.
- Bring a new mama a plate of our paleo lactation balls.
- Go on a nature walk with your family in your neighborhood, picking up any trash you see along the way.
