Hi Ella! I’m Savannah, writer, celebrity interviewer, and fan of yours. I’d love to interview you for my platform, Work The Magic Within, on all things love, vulnerability, self-discovery, spirituality, and why not even astrology 🦂♏️… Can we make this work? 😁 @ellamai ✨
mercury done retrograding; is it safe to come back out now? the past few weeks have been: shamefully screaming @/fighting cicadas in the street, booking intl flights, wondering how i’ma lose weight before mid-august + celebrating the boys completing 15 months of virtual learning.

this. took me a minute to realize my sons’ “moodiness” was attributed to not eating enough/right or they needed to take a nap, but was powering through class/homework = the same things that cause a *big* attitude in me. they “act up” when the basics aren’t being fulfilled.

self-care on a mother’s day sunday looks like sitting in the car in silence for about 20 minutes just to close my eyes before going in the house as a gift to myself. bless.

glad my job knows never to look for me on my kids’ birthdays, three days before/after my birthday + mother’s day—all holidays you can never get me to work ‘round these parts.
Today our family lost a true friend and loyal companion. For more than a decade, Bo was a constant, gentle presence in our lives—happy to see us on our good days, our bad days, and everyday in between.
@KShakur2U ridiculous + they better let you honor the coupons that come w/ spending X amount of $ *after* returning what you need to. idc idc idc! how are companies still missing the mark on the bodies of children?!
