Since you guys liked my boho bedroom post, I thought I’d share a little more. A lot of my decor is thrifted or picked up from my travels, and a lot of it has come from ikea and Target over the years that I just styled in a weird way. I’ll be restyling my place soon: what are your favorite brand

looking back, i had no idea how far this journey would take me, but I still know this: business can be a force for good. if you like living with intention, making memories with your people, and being part of something bigger than yourself, you’re my people. follow along + ama!! xo, joelle

Happy 313 Day! I’m so thankful for all the ways this city has shaped me. I love that I got to grow up eating pierogis and celebrating Paczki Day (as well as learning to spell it). I was raised to drink Vernor’s when I’m sick, and Faygo when I’m not. It’s a well established fact that Better Made chi

I had an errand to run in the loop so I ended up taking my kiddo along so we could go to The Color Factory after. It’s a cute little immersive experience in the lower level of the Sears Tower. Each exhibit is so playful, especially the mint green ball pit. It’s full of little treats and photo ops a
