“There’s always been a rainbow hangin’ over your head…” 🌈 ~Kacey Musgraves
By Jessica L. Williams • Issue #304 • View online
As I am getting ready to retire one bullet journal and start another, I have been flipping through to see if there are any notes or tasks I need to move over to the new one.
I forgot that on the first page, I had written a list of things that make me happy. It was a list I started during a self-care mini-retreat, and I like always having it with me. Every time I read through it, it makes me smile.
Here it is:
  • That first sip of coffee
  • Pressing publish on a blog post or scheduling a newsletter
  • Feeling the sun on my face
  • RAINBOWS (every time I see a rainbow, I consider it a sign of good things to come)
  • Butterflies
  • Dancing
  • Accomplishing a goal
  • Ice cream (on any day)
  • Seeing people fall in love
  • Playing with a dog
  • Milkshakes (especially if they’re boozy)
  • Family and friend time
  • Tequila shots!
  • Finishing a puzzle and hanging it up
  • Helping someone figure out their next right step
As we start winding down the year and making plans for 2023, it is a great time to review and reflect.
What makes YOU happy? What made you smile this week?
You might find a wonderful reminder (as I have) that it’s often the little things.
On to the picks! 
P.S. Fellow iPhone users: This week, I learned that you can mark text messages as unread now?! 😱 Swipe from left to right, and you’ll see it as an option! If you use unread status to highlight messages you need to respond to (like me!), this may be welcome news! (Tip: Sidekick newsletter)

#loves 😍
This week, I’m highlighting #loves that have upcoming Black Friday deals. Let me know if there are any other deals you are interested in, and I’ll include them in the next issue! 
  • 📸. Pixistock Stock Photos. This membership includes diverse stock photos, social media prompts, Canva templates, and more. I bought an annual membership on Black Friday two years ago, and it turned out to be a great investment. A bonus for me was supporting a fellow black woman entrepreneur. Black Friday deal: 50% off any membership. Starts 11/21. You can get a free 30-day content planner for Instagram/TikTok today.
  • 📧. Email Marketing Membership (EMM)Liz Wilcox’s $9/month membership has awesome newsletter templates to help you get clicks, and replies, build relationships and make sales. I’ve used several ideas for my introductory note. Black Friday deal: Purchase a year of EMM and get access to all of her other trainings as a bonus. Get on the waitlist.
