BOARD

This year, we’re thrilled to announce
that our magazine is going digital! We believe
that now more than ever, we need to function with
an abundant mindset. With that in mind, we are making
our magazine free for everyone, and accessible all around
the world. We’re also including advertisers in our publication,
something that supports our ability to serve our mission, and
provides resources to you, our readers, in the form of access to new
products, discount codes, and opportunities.
Our team has grown, and with it the content and design of our publication
—and we’re just getting started. Soon our publication will include media,
interactive features, and additional resources that you will have at your
fingertips. You’re able to read it online, download a PDF, and don’t worry - if
you love the feeling of a real magazine, you’ll still be able to
order a hard copy.
Membership has always supported the publication of the magazine and
will continue to do so. Therefore, we hope you will not only continue
to support us, but encourage anyone you share it with digitally to
join us as a member too. The more members we have, the more
capacity we have to bring resources to the community. It is an
honor to grow with you.
With excitement,
Kim, Lucy, and Amy
