The Smile: 12/11/2024

I’ve already finished my holiday shopping (a small victory!), and now I’m looking forward to giving those gifts to friends and family. The hardest part? Waiting until Christmas to share them! 🎁 Today’s newsletter is here to add to that cheer with uplifting stories that remind us why staying hopeful and inspired matters.
