An ode to pretty work, part I 💐

This week’s newsletter is about pretty work!

We know that beauty and aesthetics hold so much power. Green spaces in cities support children’s development. Making and experiencing art supports IQ, lower stress levels, and even reduces pain. 

That’s all great - but I love the power it has to simply make us ✨happy.

Pretty things are soothing and enjoyable. And those are words that we’d love to see more of at work, right? Just imagine sidewalk-flower-spring-step being the mood from 9-5.

Now, I know that breathtaking feeling of receiving a bouquet isn’t exactly what most of us get to do for work. But you can still foster this feeling for yourself by making time and space for pretty work and pretty workspaces. If for no other reason than to have some joy and beauty around you for 40 hours a week. 💜 

We’re splitting this topic into two editions - I (Pretty Work) and II (Pretty Workspaces) - read it on Substack!
