Embracing my Inner Wellness Literati

Good morning my beautiful readers,

I hope you have all had a really nice weekend. I ran a 5k, went to the sauna, and ate a lot of vegetables. My type of good time.

Yesterday I realized that the Build Your Five Year Plan Course wasn’t properly connected to the membership on the website. I fixed it!

I recommend doing this one a thousand times over to EVERYONE, I think it’s so powerful, effective, and literally life changing. I think it can give you a very clear sense of direction, conviction, and giddiness about your own life.

We are currently looking for nominations for our next book club read. Nominate a book in the book club section of our community.

I have, for the fourth month in a row, nominated Swann’s Way by Proust. But Hot Literati is a democracy, so it must be voted in to win.

So the Hot Literati App is like goodreads, but better. It’s an app that helps you focus, read, and write more.

One of my favorite features of the app is daily journal prompts in the morning and evening that help rewire your brain for gratitude and optimism. When I made the app, I thought really carefully about what habits I wanted it to encourage and how I wanted it to make people feel.

We have been having a great time, together! From book club with long-time members like Joe and Shanice, to our Anais Nin Party in New York hosted by Marissa .

Get involved online and/or in person to celebrate being hot and smart.

As I enter my mid-20s :o , I have fully embraced my personal identity as a wellness girl. I had a strong clubbing era, a strong dating arc, and now I love sauna, cold plunge, run, Japanese sweet potato. So naturally, I’m a sucker for a wellness brand.

Over the weekend, I tried IM8, a powdered drink that promises better sleep and higher energy. Does it work? I’m not sure, I only tried it once. But, it is a new (to me) brand and I am into it.

Don’t forget to smile and laugh a lot and maybe eat some carrots.

On Friday, I’ll be sending out “Hotter Literati” a newsletter for Paid subscribers. This week’s issue will be “How to Make Adulthood Fun,” as I’ve had some really interesting convos with young young adults and I think I have some decent advice. Upgrade to a Paid Substack to get it in your inbox or become a member on our website to see it and other paywalled posts on the blog.

ok bye!

Thank you for reading the Hot Literati Substack.
