🛝 Remember fun? Like... ridiculous, no-purpose, 🛝 Remember fun? Like... ridiculous, no-purpose, belly-laugh fun?

When you’re an adult, it can start to feel like you’re only allowed to play if it’s productive, approved, or has a calendar invite. But joy doesn’t need permission slips. 

This Monday, I’m teaching a free class on: The Power of Play: How to Reignite Joy as an Adult 🎈

💛 Why play isn’t just for kids

💛 Quick ways to reconnect to yourself through fun

💛 A silly, joyful activity we’ll do live (no prep needed!)

This class is for the weirdos, the burnt-out babes, and the delight seekers.

😜 Come take a deep breath, giggle a little, and remember who you are.

🤩 This is why we do it. At our last Operation 🤩 This is why we do it.

At our last Operation Merriment event, everyone got a flyer full of tear-off compliments. And something beautiful happened…

💌 A stranger and his son stopped to grab one.

💌 Another family came over right after and smiled as they read them.

💃 And in the background, a mom started dancing with her daughter—just because.

We didn’t plan for that moment. But joy has a way of showing up when you create space for it.

This is what Operation Merriment is all about:

🎨 Creating art

🫶 Spreading kindness

🌊 Witnessing the ripple

You’re invited to experience it for yourself.

🎨 Our next event is Saturday, April 26

📍 In Baltimore (Enoch Pratt Library)

💸 Just $11 — all supplies included

What is Operation Merriment? It’s more than cra What is Operation Merriment?

It’s more than crafting. It’s more than kindness.

It’s a movement. A monthly mission. A way to turn creativity into community impact.

Every month, we gather in Baltimore to make uplifting guerrilla art and leave it in the world where people least expect it… but need it most. 🎁

Here’s how it works:

🎨 We create together
🚀 We deploy joy into the world
💛 We connect, reflect, and leave inspired

No experience necessary. No pressure to be perfect. Just bring your curiosity and a willingness to play.

I need to tell you something about this challenge I need to tell you something about this challenge I’ve been doing. 🤩🩷

You know how most self-care stuff is like, take a deep breath, take a bubble bath 🛁, light a candle 🕯️, and honestly, that’s fine—but I need more. I need play 🪁. I need novelty 🧩. I need things that wake my brain up 🧠⚡ and make me laugh at how weird life is. 🎠

And this little 7-day, 1-minute joy challenge did exactly that. 🎉

🌈 What I loved is that it wasn’t about huge changes. It was these tiny, quirky shifts that made me feel so much more alive. 

Like, tapping on my chest to reset my nervous system 💖 (oh hiiiii, “thymus thump”!). Giving my anxious thoughts the most ridiculous cartoon voice so I couldn’t take them seriously. Spotting accidental art in the wild 🎨 and realizing—wow, the world is actually full of weird beauty if I just look for it. 👀

And the flow of it felt kind of perfect too. It starts with calming your system 🧘‍♀️, moves into embracing your own delightful weirdness 🤹‍♀️, and ends with reconnecting to the world around you 🌎.

Basically, it mirrors how I think we make joy in our lives: first, feel good inside 💓. Then, create it in our own way 🎨. And finally, spread it around 🫶.

And the best part? It only takes one minute a day. ⏰

I swear, this has been such a game-changer for me. 🚀 If you’re like me and you crave novelty, play, and those tiny sparks of joy in your day—you gotta try it. ✨

Only available in the PP, IFYKYK. 💌

🧠 Your brain is kind of a dumb dumb. Not your 🧠 Your brain is kind of a dumb dumb.

Not your MIND. Your mind is SOOO smart. 🌈✨ It contains multitudes.

But your brain? It’s just another organ—like your liver. It carries out specific functions, and when you don’t treat it right, it struggles to do its job, which is sad because that’s its WHOLE purpose on this Earth! 😵‍💫

The good news? Just like your body can bounce back from being run-down, your brain can heal when you start treating it with care. 💪💖

Your brain is here to support your experience on this earth. So when I say we can “trick” it, I mean we can learn how it operates—what *it* wants—and pair that with what *you* want. 🔄

👉 Want to think more positively? There’s a trick for that.

👉 Want to expand your focus? There’s a trick for that.

👉 Want to feel less anxious? Yep, a trick for that too.

And by “tricks,” I mean tweaks. Tools. Tiny 1–5 minute challenges to get your brain on board with your big beautiful dreams. 🛠️🧩

If you want to try some FREE 1 Minute Challenges — check out the Positive Pulse. It’s free. Let’s go. 🎉

P.S. This is a clip from the “Refresh + Recenter” Seminar, which is also free inside the same place your 1 Minute Challenges live.

Go join. Uplevel. Love yourself. 💛
