January 2021 Newsletter: In Gratitude
As I look back over the year, I am in awe of how much I have to be grateful for. This past year presented immerse challenges and uncertainties. However, there were also glimmers of hope and acts of love that brought light and joy.
Recording these magical occurrences provide me with an overwhelming and undeniable sense of abundance. I encourage you to also record all the wonderful things that surround you. Here is (a selection of) the list of people and events I am grateful for from 2020.
- I am truly grateful for our wonderful team that helped us navigate the year and worked tirelessly to help clients with their gifts.
- I am grateful for having clients who put their trust and faith in us. Helping them stand out with their gifts is my passion and I am privileged to do this work everyday.
- I am grateful for the google reviews written by clients and recipients who took the time to share their experiences and feedback. These testimonials provide the fuel that keeps us going.
- I am grateful for the launch of Snack Heros that has brought so much fun to our workplace, along with opportunities to bring joy and energy to people working from home for the first time.
- I am grateful for the customization projects that we took on, and the fun challenges this provided for me and the team.
On February 12, we begin the year of the Metal Ox. The ox is famed for being hard working and methodical. The Chinese Zodiac tells us that the upcoming year will provide great opportunities to work on your professional pursuits as the work you put in will correspond with the financial success you achieve. Additionally, the year of the Metal Ox (Feb 12th 2021 to January 21,2022) will provide opportunities to strengthen your personal and professional relationships.

We all know champagne is the most popular beverage on new years. The effervescent bubbles add a sense of buoyancy and lightness to this celebratory occasion. But for Lunar New Year, one of the favorites to gift is Cognac. This year, we may chose to transition to 2021 with a more subtle, subdued drink, which invites a sense of contemplation and care. We are highlighting cognac, a surprisingly versatile drink. Check out our blog to learn more about how to enjoy these sophisticated brandy.
Goals that serve me are those that embrace the process and not the results. For example, if I set my goal to master a new instrument. I will probably fall short. However, if I make my goal to practice that instrument regularly (maybe 2 to 3 times a week) I can commit to that. I try to choose goals that motivate and inspire me and break them into achievable action items. How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time.
I also write them down and share them, to make these commitments feel real and tangible. With that being said, here are a few of my goals for 2021.
After a lovely Christmas dinner, while we were sitting by the fire and relaxing, my son suddenly asked my husband Steve and I about our goals for 2021. He offered that we should each pick five, which are achievable and realistic.
