Spread Self-Love!

Spread Self-Love! | Uncustomary

Spread self-love! Shout it from whatever platform you have, whether that’s from your journal, a newsroom, or on top of a mountain to a herd of goats… because EVERYONE, and I mean everyone is entitled to self-love.

Oh-Oh-Oh! 🤣

Not sure what to do on Christmas? 🤷‍♀️ Let it be Not sure what to do on Christmas? 🤷‍♀️

Let it be fun. Use it as a creative day. 🎨 You get to do whatever you want. 🤸‍♀️

I love to use the days leading up to New Year’s 🪩 to reflect on the year 🤔 and plan for the next. 📒

How about you? 🎄 What are YOU doing for Christmas? ⤵️

The holidays end and suddenly your nervous system The holidays end and suddenly your nervous system is like excuse me??? 🫠🎄

If you’re feeling wrung out, foggy, tender, or “off”… you’re not broken. You’re coming down from a lot. 🧠💛

I made a Post-Holiday Recovery Plan as a post-holiday decompression chamber.

Not a glow-up. Not a bootcamp.

A gentle reset for your body, mind, emotions, routines, and joy. 🌱🛋️

It’s reflection, rituals, grounding, tiny celebrations, and a 7-day roadmap that feels doable on tired days. 📝🌈

If your system wants structure and kindness, this might be for you.

Take what helps. Leave the rest. 💭🤲

So real. 🚨 It looks so real. I collect good news, So real. 🚨 It looks so real.

I collect good news, roadside wonder, and joyful weirdness.

Everyone driving by stopped to see what was going on. 🚓👀

And what’s going on is... Insanity. Absurdity. Unhinged nonsense. 🪚🐕🪧 And I am HERE FOR IT. 👏

I’m so glad I got to see this eccentric Baltimore Christmas Lights display on their last year. 🔦

📍2304 Putty Hill Ave. 21234

If you like finding joy in unexpected places, you’re in the right corner of the internet.

❗️ Edit: Nope! I didn’t know it was recreating Christmas Vacation! 🤷🏻‍♀️ It’s been over a decade since I’ve seen it. And even though the fake swat car was definitely distracting, I still wouldn’t have gotten it. Going to rewatch tomorrow!

Sometimes you meet someone who reminds you that th Sometimes you meet someone who reminds you that thinking out loud is allowed. 💬

Something i love about Josh’s stand up is that he works stuff 🎙️ out ON stage.

He talks and lets it happen. He’s an incredible storyteller, and wonderful at observation. But it’s the conversational quality that I really appreciate. 😻

You feel like you’re both having a conversation with him in an intimate way, no matter the size of the venue…🗣️ but also that you’re witnessing him thinking out loud in real time.

This is such a gift to witness, but also a permission to yourself.

You get to figure out what you want, who you are, and what’s next for you out loud. 

📣 Whatever that means to you. Mid-sentence. Mid-laugh. Mid-life.

I made a 200-item Winter Bucket List ☃️ for people I made a 200-item Winter Bucket List ☃️ for people who don’t want to “survive winter”…they want to participate in it.

It’s cozy. It’s silly. 🙃 It’s a little unhinged.

There are rituals, dares, kindness missions, absurd tasks, and tiny ways to feel more alive when the days get darker. 🌇

Some ideas take five minutes. ⏰5️⃣

Some involve soup, snow, glitter, or googly eyes. 👀

All of them are here to remind you that joy doesn’t disappear in winter. 🧣 It just gets weirder.

If winter usually makes you feel flat, restless, or bored of beige coping strategies… 🏔️ this is for you.

🔗 Link’s where it always is (check out the printables section!) 📃

Save this for a future cold day.

❄️ Send it to someone who needs winter to feel less heavy.

Winter doesn’t have to beat you. ⛷️

You get to participate. 🧤

I haven’t stopped thinking about Wicked. 💚🧹 Espec I haven’t stopped thinking about Wicked. 💚🧹

Especially the part where Elphaba is like…
okay but what even are good deeds anymore?

She keeps trying to do the right thing.
Freeing the monkeys.
Fixing what she can.
Staying aligned with her ethics.

And it does not save her.
People still hate her.
The story about her never updates.

She’s still the villain.
Which honestly feels… familiar.

Here’s my possibly spicy take 🌶️
I don’t actually care why someone does a good thing.

If a house gets built for someone who needs it, I don’t care if it was for Instagram, taxes, clout, or guilt. The house still exists. The work still got done.

But
Where it gets tricky is expectations.

Kindness with a hidden demand for praise can turn into resentment real fast.
Which is why I think the bravest version of a good deed is the one you give like a gift to the wild.

No guarantee.
No applause.
No clean narrative.

Also… Elphaba never becomes wicked.
She’s labeled.
By (JUST) two people.

A headline.
A story repeated enough times to feel true.

One word can ruin a life.
Even if it’s wrong.

Wicked isn’t about turning evil.

It’s about staying good while being misunderstood.
And asking yourself…
aren’t you tired of needing to be strong?

💚🫧🧠🎭
