Dispatch no. 50 - Updates Podcast

Not related to this podcast, but I saw this and thought you could do something great with HTV in a similar look! http://www.dorotheasclosetvintage.com/30sTERRACottaSILKCrepeDECOdressLK.html

I bought that iron based on your recommendation in a recent video when my 30-year-old one died a few weeks ago. It really is good. Would you consider giving patrons first dibs on your collection when you downsize? I just watched the Rabanne show and that grey suit with the capelet and fitted hood is something I need in my life soon.

I'm so proud of you for listening to your body and taking a break! You're doing great, you deserve rest, and we will still be here whenever you are feeling better 💜

Always entertaining! Thank you for the iron recommendation, I just happed to be in the market for one!

I'm in the south of the UK and have never been to Hever Castle, will add it to my list of places to visit. I had an English Heritage pass last year and went to visit lots of ruined castles including Tintagel, plus Stonehenge (very peopley).

You are epic, take rest as often as you need, so we can enjoy your creative inspiration for a very long time.

Yes, but get the National Trust for Scotland pass, as it's cheaper than the England/Wales one, and is reciprocal.

I really enjoy this view into the mind of a remarkably talented creator. Your Look Books are a work of professional art and every bit worth any delay. Thank you for the inspiration.

Rest! I think you need an assistant and I want to volunteer as tribute ❤️

Yes you can join the National Trust and visit all of their properties. Hever Castle is a gorgeous property. The wall hangings are amazing and the grounds are lovely. Well worth a day spent wandering around.

Go to bed lol ❤️ I'm super excited for this new lookbook but take care of yourself. Lying in awake in bed is still rest. It counts. Also love that at one point you were like "I'm going to take a rest I just need to do this, this, this, and this... and this." I've been there. Sometimes you just gotta call it a day.

Sending love! 💖 Hope you did get the rest you said you'd

As the people who pay your wages, we say TAKE A DAY OFF! I spent the last Bank Holiday weekend at Bodium Castle, in my 15th Century camp, wearing 15th Century garb. And yes, we picnic-ed. Well had lunch anyway 😆 Both National Trust and English Heritage have annual passes 😊

Diamonds are made under pressure. They can also break under pressure. Have a generous rest. Maybe try some of the no talking shoe shine videos on YouTube. I find them to be comforting.

Maybe some yoga nidra at night will help distract your brain long enough to go to sleep? There are free sessions on YouTube, I recommend wading through them to find a narrator you enjoy. Non-sleep deep rest (NSDR) is a good way to calibrate your circadian rhythm and slide into the magical REM sleep. An anatomy professor explained to our class that the body has deep pockets, but they are not infinite. The body keeps the score, and won't be ignored forever. Tldr: go to bed! And know that we'll be here cheering for you when you get back, no matter how long it takes! 💖

Not mad at all! It sounds cheesy AF, but you can't pour from an empty cup. Taking care of yourself & not getting sick (!!) is as important (if not more important!) than anything else.

lol - I think we understand this boss of yours. Please take care.

We’re not mad, just disappointed. 🤪 Get some rest. Don’t burn out too hard. Look at pretty houses. Write the books that make your brain happy. Feel better. I’m trying to rid myself of internalized capitalism. It’s hard. But ppl are worthy even when not producing stuff.

Rest well and feel better 🙂. Try some melatonin for sleep, available at Walmart, Target, Amazon, etc. P.S.- I am not mad at you at all! Self-care is very important.
