I’m Jay! I’m a twenty-something living near DC working toward a better, kinder life.

MY STORY

Once upon a time, I filled my days with as many activities as I could and spent most days living in the future until a health crisis forced me to pull back and reprioritize. When I took a look at my life then, I realized I was spending too much time on things that took energy away from me and not enough on what brings me joy: slower living, making things from scratch and by hand, caring for the planet and its people, and finding space for stillness and gratitude. So I decided to make a change.
