Hello Beautiful Friend!

Welcome to your Sunday LoveGram. 

Thank you for being here with me. 

I appreciate you. 

I love our connection. 

YOU MATTER!  

And you help me remember what matters.

Today’s LoveGram celebrates a simple ritual that connects us to the people we love who live far away. (Too far to hug as often as we wish!) 

I learned this from my friend, Sonja Jeanne, who hosted a workshop with me yesterday called “Present Til the Very Last Breath.” This is a candle ritual that she shared with her mom, during the final years of her mother’s life. 

I’ve since adopted it to use with my own mom — and with many others in my life. 

When you listen to today’s audio, you’ll hear me talk about this ritual. And, as a special treat, I’ve included audio of Sonja sharing about her mom and why this was so special to them.

I’ll give you the spoiler alert right up front: it’s beautifully simple.

There’s a particular kind of candle called WoodWick. I’m not affiliated with them in any way — I just love the sweet, soft crackling sound they make when they’re lit.

The idea is this: you buy one candle for yourself and send one to someone you love. Then, at an agreed-upon time, you both light your candles.

It becomes a tangible way to connect — something physical you can hold and see and hear. As the candles crackle, there’s a lovely sense of tetheredness, of rootedness. A quiet reminder: we are here together, even though we’re far apart.

In today’s audio LoveGram, we explore this a little more. If this speaks to you, I’d love for you to listen.

I appreciate you and am grateful for who you are and how you show up for your life and for the people you love. 

Find simple ways to connect to people in your life. They will be glad — and so will YOU! (Even the smallest flame can light a wide distance.)

Seek celebration — even in dark corners,
