In 2024, I began a journey to find ways to bring in a little extra income into our household. I was aware of how the economy would be changing and wanted to get ahead of the chaos a little. And I want to help you, too! Here I’ll be sharing what has helped me boost my income by 25% this past year through easy, low-stress side hustles and freelance projects. You can do this too, using skills you already have!

Items I love that make my life & home feel more magical ✨ When I was my 20’s, I experienced a huge loss that taught me how important it is to live in the moment and to find the magic in every day. Now I make it my mission to fill my life and my space with things that feel enchanting to me… candles, music, books, films, cozy hygge home decor and furniture. In this list I’m sharing some of my favs!

This is for the overthinkers. The late-night thought spiralers. The ladies who triple-check the doors, rehearse conversations in the shower, and feel everything deeply. You’re not dramatic. You just have a very enthusiastic nervous system! I’m sharing the little things that have helped take the edge off of my anxiety. Comfort items. Calming rituals. Smart tools that give me peace of mind, make hard days softer and busy minds quieter. Nothing extreme, just gentle support for real life. You deserve peace. Even if your brain occasionally disagrees 🤍

I am obsessed with ambient YouTube videos. These are some of my favorite cozy cottagecore hygge-esque soundscapes. Enjoy!

Candle spinners, also known as änglaspel (Swedish for "angel chimes"), add gentle movement, soft light, and a touch of old-world whimsy to any room. As the candle warms the air, the delicate shapes slowly spin, creating a calm, mesmerizing glow that feels equal parts cozy and enchanted. This list features beautiful candle spinners that turn ordinary moments into small rituals. Perfect for altars, nightstands, seasonal decor, or anywhere you want your home to feel more intentional, magical, and alive. If you love subtle magic and meaningful details, you’re in the right place ✨

While you're working on enchanting your home (see my other list!), why not start finding ways to enchant your entire life? In this list I share some of my own creations and found gems to help you slow down, find peace and deeper appreciation for the magic to be found every single day. Mindfulness workbooks, journaling guides, books, music and so much more!

My go-to health and wellness products that help me feel energized, clear-headed, and restored. Includes immune support, gut health optimization and more. Each item has earned a place in my routine because it actually makes a noticeable difference in how I feel.

I consider Imbolc on February 1st to be my true New Year. As I talk about in my new beginnings journaling guide, “Illuminate”, January is a month for planning and easing into the new year. So when February 1st rolls around, I feel more prepared and confident in myself and my goals. You can learn more about the symbolism and practices of this beautiful festival of light with my suggestions on this list!
