Hello besties

It is, once again, your favorite email of the week!!

I’m honored that so many of you open this email to hear (read?) me yap in every edition 🫶

I invite you to grab a snack and/or drink in a fun cup. Below I’ll tell you things to do this week to be your hottest and most amazing self:

Getting your vibes right this week:

Create a new playlist of songs you love

Your inspo: any song that you randomly hear and you think “awww I love this song” makes the playlist. This is perfect to help you reset because nothing on it will have you hitting skip.

I’m calling my playlist: “omg i love this song” (all lowercase on purpose)

Manifest

And do it intentionally, at least once. The first two months of the year have been so busy, but you can’t forget about your wildest dreams and biggest goals and how to set yourself up to achieve them!

Hot girl walking is preferred method, but meditation can count if that’s your prerogative.

Cook / bake something delicious

I genuinely believe that doing something with your hands is super therapeutic… cooking and baking is such a good way to do this.

Make something that requires you to chop or mince or stir or knead and really commit to the dish. None of this microwave shit.

When you do this, you 1) have a treat and 2) have accomplished something. Slay.

Have a dance party

You literally cannot live a positive life if you haven’t had a chance to let out all the rage you’ve been harboring.

I’ve been a solo-dance-partier for years, but this week in particular I’m encouraging every single one of you to dance around and preform in the mirror like the rockstar you are.

This one is inspired by all the Olivia Rodrigo videos on my fyp from the GUTS tour. I may have to sneak into her ATX show.

Treat yourself (duh)

Doing this weekly is scientifically proven to help you live longer (because it makes you happy). Happy weekly birthday to those who celebrate!!

Make a goal to close out Q1 strong

You have about 1 month to make something awesome happen! A few ideas:

Go to your new yoga place 10 times
Finish the book that you half read in 2023
Buy vitamins and actually take them
Reach out + make more plans with people you haven’t seen in 5ever
Take the trip out of the group chat

Write it down, manifest it, and make it happen.

Get thirsty (2)

Hydrate, girl.
Post a thirst trap because you’re hot

What I’ve been up to (work version)

For all of my new subscribers who now get my email because I asked you to subscribe at the bar, here’s a lil about me:

I run social media for this company called beehiiv (the best newsletter platform in the world). I just started using this new social media publishing/scheduling tool and I genuinely will not shut up about it.

It’s called Assembly & here’s the tea👇

When my manager asked for the deets

I’ve only used it for a week(ish), but def recommend for any other full stack social media girlies out there💅

GEN Z VOCAB / TRENDS BABY

here’s how to talk to your Gen Z coworker this week:

Pop off (verb): Used when you're doing extremely well and or performing like a professional/better than anyone. basically means “go crazy” but in a good way
Sad hamster trend on TikTok: These posts are comprised of 2 photos. The first depicts a real-life, tough/hard situation. The second photo is a cute, teary-eyed hamster.

This basically just a revitalization of ‘but I’m just a baby’ trend, and it’s giving same vibes as ‘I’m just a girl.’ Example here— one of my favorites.

That’s all from me today! Can’t wait for all of us to grow into the hottest slayest most confident most beautiful-brilliant-hilarious-radiant versions of ourselves.

See you next time!

Xoxo,

Bella Rose
