What We Are Thankful For
If you haven’t caught on to this yet, we are a company fueled by gratitude. Thankfulness and joy are the driving forces behind everything that we create for our community. Why? Because we believe in the transformative power of gratitude. When life feels hard, reach for gratitude. When you’re smooth sailing, reach for gratitude. Whether it’s Thanksgiving week or mid-July, reach for gratitude.
Today on the blog we’re sharing a few of the big and small things we’re thankful for.

Small businesses survive because people like you choose to shop with us. For that, we are thankful today and everyday.

More important than for business function, this year we’ve been able to stay connected to the important people in our lives thanks to email, messaging and video calls. Like many of you, we have participated in the big life moments thanks to technology. From virtual baby showers, family game nights to recording a new podcast series, we are grateful for the way technology has shaped 2020 and kept us connected to those far away while staying safely at home.
Our first responders. Nothing keeps you grounded in what a gift it is to be healthy than a global pandemic. We are so indebted to and thankful for nurses, doctors, first responders and emergency personnel who have been our heroes this year. They have sacrificed so much for the collective good and we stand in support of them not just this season but always.
It’s so important to name the big ways we’re grateful but we believe in listing the small things too! It’s a practice that helps us to stay in a state of gratitude no matter where we are or what’s going on in our life. A few small things we’re grateful for today are….
