Every season asks something different of us. The witchy little secret is learning to listen.

"When one tugs at a single thing in nature, we find it attached to the rest of the world." - John Muir

Hi friends,

It's been a full plate over here, the kind where you look up (I’ve been getting better at stopping to do this - Yellowstone!) and realize a lot has quietly and sometimes very noisily moved while you were heads-down doing the work.

Four years.

I almost can't believe I'm writing this: I am 4 years sober!

BeeMee was born out of my recovery. The feeling of being powerless going through a contentious divorce and needing a lighthouse that didn't exist, so I built one inspired from my own paper journal and calendar. I believe in honoring all of ourselves; the parts of our lives that are thriving and the ones just trying to get through the day. As a good friend told me, “We are all human afterall”. I'm grateful to be here, to be doing this, and to have you reading this message.

Something new: Reiki has joined the hive

In May I became a certified Reiki practitioner!

If you've followed BeeMee for a while you know the whole thing is built around energy and which of your life roles are lighting you up, and which ones are quietly draining you. Getting certified in actual energy work felt like the same instinct I've been chasing this whole time, just pointed at the body instead of the screen. The lighthouse I built digitally, now blending with something I can do with my hands.

I've been practicing reiki on my kids, close friends and family and the response has been better than I hoped. Openings are coming in August! Watch our A.L.I.C.E. social media pages for updates!

Our Partnership with H.E.A.R.T.

A couple of weeks ago, BeeMee had a table at an outdoor resource fair hosted by HEART, Salt Lake City's Homeless Engagement and Response Team. Our team was one of nearly 50 other organizations there! The next fair is on July 17 and for that one, we’re assembling personal hygiene kits to bring along. We’ll be reaching out to local grocery stores and healthcare offices for donations and asking for our supporters’ help too. You can contact me, my mom, or sister with questions, and where to drop items off!

Kickstarter

Point blank - it was a great first attempt! We didn't have enough support to back the calendar integration yet, but we’ll try again soon!

Enjoy the gardening, hiking, city exploring, quiet reading- whatever it is you love parts of the season where you are!

Cheers,

💕/LaChelle

HAPPY 4TH OF JULY!

Take a quick 5 minute check-in. Slip away, glance at your hive and BeeMeeMoji, and notice how you're actually doing before the next round of "so what's new with you?"

Watch which roles fill you up and which wear you down. A big family day is the perfect place to see your hive in real time, and to give yourself permission to step back when one Whisp is running on empty.
Protect your peace. Whether it's a quiet moment on the porch or a boundary you set with love, your wellbeing gets to come to the cookout too.
