One of our favorite quotes is “wonderful things happen when your mind is empty“. We wholeheartedly agree, and would even add “when your mind and your desk are empty”.
When our space is clean and organized, we’re in the zone to push out all that Brit + Co content that you know and love. Which is why we fell in love with this TLight LED Lamp. Not only is it beautiful and simple, it charges all your electronics and acts as a speaker. Now, who do we talk to about getting one for everyone in the office?
Tlight is an LED lamp that has a dock to charge your iPhone or iPod, speakers located on the lamp, and also an additional USB port to plug in more electronics that need a little boost. Can you believe one little lamp can have all these functions? I LOVE LAMP :)
But wait… there’s more! It even comes with a remote control. Perfect for when someone comes back into the office after you’ve been alone for awhile, and you don’t want to admit that you’ve been blasting Justin Bieber all morning long.
It’s a bit of an investment at $169, but we think it’s worth it to go clutter-free. And if you want more tips on zenning out your space, check out 15 other clever solutions for small spaces.
Back in January, we introduced you to a feel-good cause to inspire your New Year's resolution: a walking challenge to help raise funds for the amazing cancer fighters at The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. I took part in the challenge with the Brit + Co team and ended up walking 105+ miles in January — it was awesome.
This spring, there's a new challenge on the horizon, The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's Big Climb. The ask: On May 15, 2021, you can step up to take cancer down by committing to climb 1,311 steps, walking 3.2 miles, or doing 440 chair step-ups at home as part of the Big Climb. If you need some motivation to bring movement back into your daily routine — look no further!
As always, it's free to sign up, but climbers are encouraged to set a fundraising goal to help beat cancer. We'll be organizing another Brit + Co team to step up, and I hope you'll join us too! Keep scrolling for a peek at where I'll be completing the challenge in my Los Angeles neighborhood around the hidden Silver Lake Stairs. Happy climbing!
Never underestimate the power of an accountability buddy! I asked my in-laws, my partner, and a few friends to join me so we can keep each other motivated and accountable in completing the challenge — virtual high-fives all around! Also, my dog Fox is a great climber, too.
An aesthetically pleasing backdrop is a huge motivator for me! I'm fortunate to have all sorts of painted steps around my neighborhood to keep the challenge interesting, but you can also keep cool inside with at-home chair step-ups.
Don't forget to share your progress on social — #BigClimb!
Feel free to break the challenge up if you need to by tackling half the distance in the AM and half at sunset. Here's me 1,311 steps later and ready for a break — but, think I earned this one!
