Nurturing Ourselves + Others: Thanking the women who raised us; remembering to nourish ourselves.
As we continue our conversations here at REALM on New Essentials–in both our lives and jewelry boxes—we look at May in a new light. Being Mother’s Day in the USA, we celebrate the women who brought us into this world. Young women who had dreams, drive and vigor became our mothers. They cared for and encouraged us to become the best we can be. They nurtured us and taught us to care for ourselves, a quality that is essential now more than ever—but also a quality we seem to forget.
At our spring photo shoot with cover girl/Real Woman of REALM Lara Ertwine and her daughter. We were all camera shy at first. Lara and I had to put our best self forward so Skyler could too.
One of our Empresses told me that during our current Stay At Home life she brightens her day by doing her hair, dabbing on some makeup and slipping on her REALM jewelry. It makes life feel more normal. It makes her happy. Whether your moment of happiness comes from jewelry, a bubble bath or cooking up a pot of Bolognese, my wish for you this month is that you nurture yourself as much as those you love.
