Hey there friends!

There is a lot of talk about the importance of finding balance in our lives. It is solid advice. Yet, it's challenging and sometimes it feels unattainable.

This week Kristin and I were talking about how as caregivers, entrepreneurs, and creatives, finding balance almost feels mythical. And that's when we realized we aren't meant to "find" balance we are meant to "create" balance.

As part of creating balance we are merging our email lists into one harmonious place. CXD is us and we are CXD. There is no reason to spread ourselves so thin. Besides, there is just too much fun happening right now to compartmentalize our joy and excitement.

Etsy

Our Etsy Store, Hello Caregiving, has been experiencing a great uptick in sales of our Christmas Carols Songbook. This large print download makes singing carols with your loved ones of any age easier. And Kristin and I are freaking over the moon about all the positive feedback we have received about this songbook. Thank you!

YouTube Channels

Our Hello Caregiving Channel maybe slow to develop but we are so full of ideas. This caregiver and caregiving resource will feature our tips, tricks, and offerings of other caregivers. All, to make it easier on you to put the oxygen mask on and reinstate purpose in your loved one's demeanor.

Music

The new single, Inner Light is making its way into the streaming channels. Right now you can listen to it on Spotify and YouTube. This Soundology is 100% Handpan a great addition to your mediation routine and/or play it as a soul inspired backdrop to your day.

Publishing

The poetry anthology is coming along so nicely that we have decided to publish an anniversary addition of She Too: Four Voices in (Almost) Harmony as well! Whoop-whoop 🙌🏼

The new anthology Paper Birds and She Too will have art featuring the same artist Jeanie Tomenek. The art work is beautiful. Carina Bissett (editor) and Allison Pang (typesetter and cover designer) are helping us bring these books to life. And we couldn't be more grateful.

Thank you all for your consistent support and encouragement.

With love and gratitude,

Kristin and Delaina
