I absolutely loved this Zoe! I see so much discourse online about how women are always “doing too much” or being “extra”. When really, it’s the rituals that save our lives. Why shouldn’t I go to bed excited to make my coffee the next morning? Why shouldn’t small acts be fun?

Awh Tori! This means the world! I adore this take - my little rituals keep me moving, through days that are empty and days that are overwhelming with challenges. It's amazing how easy it is to deride women's rituals, when across every culture we are defined by rituals and lifecycle!
