A chat about money and creativity with maven, Luna Jaffe

Tuesday, February 19, 2013 by The Maven Circle

When we heard from Jessika that she was looking for posts around money this month, we were like, hmm...what could we say about money? What do we know about money? We came up with a collective, "uh, not much." We are mavens in many ways, but mavens in money matters? Not our specialty. But you know what we are pretty great at? Finding the right people to help when we need … [Read more...] about A chat about money and creativity with maven, Luna Jaffe

Rid yourself of the past to step into a fresh new year

Or the opposite experience happens: you get together with a friend who seems snappier and grouchier than you remember and find … [Read more...] about A Happy Community Starts with a Happy Self

Dear Self: an exercise in speaking kindly, to ourselves!

Thursday, February 9, 2012 by The Maven Circle

{cute fold & mail stationery by Boy Girl Party} How often do you take the time to appreciate the things around you? Do you tell your friends and family how much you love them?  Do you do the same thing for yourself? . If you're like us, the answer is, probably not. . We can be so hard on ourselves- critical, demanding and impatient. We likely wouldn't speak to anyone else … [Read more...] about Dear Self: an exercise in speaking kindly, to ourselves!
