Krista, new Exhale member here so I’m just now finding your work.
I really like the structure of this essay! So fun and I like the varied categories.
First - whipped honey?? I need that in my life.
Second - I agree with your take on Goggins’ book! He definitely has traits we can learn from and is amazing in some ways, but yeah, other parts of himself that are supposed to be motivating are . . . disturbing? And sad, like you said.
Breann!! Welcome to Exhale!! It’s such a lovely place to be. I have made many of my dearest creative friends through Exhale! Thank you so much! This was actually our Christmas letter that accompanied our cards! Every November I think “Here we go again. I have nothing to say. What even happened this year?” And yet, every year a letter gets written somehow.
Okay, that whipped honey is life changing. I got notified that it was back in stock and ordered THREE JARS.
It’s so lovely to connect with you here on Substack and in Exhale!
That sounds so lovely! I have been overthinking whether to save the next one for spring or just keep the momentum going. Maybe I’ll wait and see how the Christmas books play out.

Love it and do you live in Ohio? The whipped honey gave it away… From there originally!
Merry Christmas Steele household!
I don't know if you heard of Heartwood Hotel from me, but I will hail this series to anyone! 🤗🤗
We all adored the heartwood hotel series and I love dreading each one in the specific seasons.

I'd love to know which book you're referencing that your kids have loved! :)
We’ve read A True Home and The Greatest Gift so far! Both are excellent!
Also love “Heartwood hotel” series!
