We are moving through December and working on exciting things for 2025! The newsletter will be back January 3rd, but in the meantime we can’t stay away! We wanted to share details on an upcoming event and figured why not throw in a pre-holiday 5 Senses Friday! We wish you and your loved ones a very happy and safe holiday season and can’t wait to meet back here in the new year!
Mixed media on paper by artist Mary Osmundsen. Check out our SEE below for our mood board for Interwovxn’s new look!
UPCOMING EVENT…
we are (co)hosting another film screening!!
the (M) Factor.
Sunday, January 12th. 11:00am @ Kelly’s Greens
We are honored to be co-hosting the incredible documentary The M Factor with Kelly’s Greens on Sunday, January 12th at 11:00am at Kelly's Green's beautiful space.
Join us to view the first-of-its-kind documentary that challenges the silence surrounding menopause and advocates for a revolution in women's healthcare. This film sheds light on real-life experiences of women and the urgent need for change in how we address this critical life phase.
Tickets are FREE, but LIMITED. Grab your tickets for the M Factor Film Screening + discussion before they are gone!
TASTE: CHOCOLATE. If you don’t know this about me, I (Rebecca) am a chocolate girl. I find I am less interested in cookies, ice cream, and other desserts, but good chocolate is my jam. Even better- chocolate + salt or chocolate + peanut butter or all three! So when these two recipes came across my radar, I had to add them to the list. First, I made these super easy Raw Peanut Butter Chocolate Bars that Ali (one of our Breast.Health WOVXN Wellness Guide contributors) shared and they are DELICIOUS and have minimal ingredients. They are the perfect little sweet treat while being gluten-free, dairy-free, and free of refined sugars! AND then Alison Roman sent out this… A GIANT BOWL OF SALTED CHOCOLATE PUDDING!
SEE: OUR MOOD BOARD. We are working on a new website and hoping to share that with you around the same time we release the new season of the podcast next month! We thought it would be fun to share our mood board and some of our visual inspiration. Special thanks to Mary Osmundsen for letting us use her work as our muse and to Chelsea Matson for the pics she took of us this past year!
SMELL: Why Winter Smells Wonderful. This morning, it happened. The smell of winter. The snow last night created the air and scent that is hard to put into words, but the article offers some reasons why it has a distinct smell. The perfect time to get outdoors! Riveredge Nature Center is hosting a Winter Solstice Celebration tomorrow with day and night hikes, yoga, crafting, and a bonfire. Pre-registration required for yoga by TONIGHT at 11:55 pm.
HEAR: JOIE DE MOM: Zillion Trillion’s new episode: Modeling Joy for Your Kids (and Yourself) with Ajiri Aki. This time of year can be ALOT and the magic-making can feel exhausting. This episode offers ideas on taking some of the pressure off in motherhood, how the French approach parenting, and why modeling joy for your kids is the ultimate flex (and Ajiri’s idea to take a solo trip to a hotel to relax- yes PLEASE or even a daytrip?!) Her book, Joie, is on our wishlist!
We also want to acknowledge that the holidays can be challenging for those who are struggling to get pregnant, have experienced a miscarriage or loss, or have lost a loved one. Here are a few podcast episodes that might be supportive. Navigating Infertility During The Holidays and Coping With Grief During The Holidays: Mindful Tips & Tools.
TOUCH: SOLSTICE BATH RITUAL FOR RELEASING. This Saturday, December 21st, the Winter Solstice invites us to pause, reflect, and honor the longest night of the year. For women, it’s a powerful time to reconnect with our cycles, release what no longer serves us, and nurture ourselves as we prepare for the new year. A simple solstice bathing ritual can support this release—immerse yourself in warm water, adding salts, herbs, or oils that feel healing. Let the water carry away the weight of the year, making space for renewal and intention. Trust the darkness as you step toward the light.
