So inspired by you! I love that you’re continuing to plunge despite the change in weather and it no longer feels like cold plunging. I have stopped plunging, but I had a little community that I connected with for a few minutes a week and I’m missing that. But now that the weather is warmer invite your kids to plunge too! Mine did in the ocean at salt creek! One day we’ll plunge together I hope! 🤞 (Also) I can’t wait to read your words on the latest coffee & crumbs collection. So happy for all your creative wins Aly!

Thank you, Davia! Yes, my kids and I have been swimming at the lake—that’s how I know it’s not a cold plunge anymore 😜 I would love to plunge with you someday!
