    Our Little Friday Letter | Friday, 13th March, 2026

    In this edition of Our Little Friday Letter, I reflect on the quiet work of showing up even when motivation is low, share updates from our little house in the country as spring begins to arrive, and discuss my new midlife essay series exploring identity, loneliness, and clarity in your 40s. You’ll also find seasonal inspiration for welcoming spring at home, slow living reflections, podcast updates from Seasonal Notes, and simple ways to embrace the changing season with intention.

    30 Slow & Simple Spring Activities

    Spring doesn’t arrive all at once — it returns slowly, through lighter evenings, birdsong in the morning, and the first flowers appearing in gardens and hedgerows. This gentle spring bucket list shares 30 slow and simple spring activities designed to help you live seasonally and embrace the rhythm of the season. From slow mornings and outdoor walks to simple seasonal food and meaningful connection, these ideas encourage intentional living and spring slow living without pressure or productivity culture.
