I’m your guide, Lauren, and today’s episode – and blog – is extra special. I’m beyond excited to officially announce something I’ve poured my heart into... 🌿 Wildly Unplug: A Creative Guide to Reconnect with Nature launches on April 22nd, 2025 – Earth Day 🌍 And I thought… what better way to celebrate than to give you a behind-the-scenes look at how this book came to life and a teaser of what you’ll find inside. 📖 A Peek Inside the Pages In the episode, I read aloud the dedication, prologue, and introduction, and I’ll share just a few of those vibes here. ➡️ The book starts with a powerful call to unplug – from hustle culture, from perfectionism, and from unrealistic expectations. ➡️ You’re invited to remember the freedom of childhood summers, when the woods were our kingdom, and the streetlights were our clocks. ➡️ I guide you through the purpose of the book – not to give you a “one-size-fits-all” formula, but to offer approachable, meaningful steps to rediscover the healing power of the outdoors. 🌲 What You’ll Learn The book is broken down into 10 "paths" – each one designed to gently nudge you deeper into connection with the wild. You'll explore: Unplugging from digital noiseNoticing seasonal shiftsCreating art from natural inspirationReclaiming movement as joyUsing your senses to ground yourselfJournaling for awareness and clarityEach chapter includes three levels of actions – Planting the Seed, Taking Root, and Branching Out – so you can pick what fits your lifestyle. You’ll also find checklists, worksheets, and reflections to keep things fun and flexible. No gatekeeping. No guilt. Just nature, creativity, and you. 🎉 Launch Details Wildly Unplug will be available as a paperback and ebook on Amazon starting April 22nd, 2025. Once the official link is live, I’ll drop it right here in the show notes and share across all platforms.
