The first episode of Behind The Glow is officially here! Cue The Pointer Sisters “I’m So Excited”. To kick off Season 1, we're chatting about 3 important things: Community, Joy and Gratitude. My first guest is my good friend Maaden Eshete Jones, who is a soul care champion, storyteller, and a force for social good. A purveyor of gifts and gatherings that celebrate well•ness, she is the owner of Love, Maaden and The Love Goods Company. Through this work, she has cultivated a thriving community around healing through hospitality, and daily practices in soul care.

In this episode, we cover:

• How to build real and meaningful relationships that build you up, instead of tear you down.

• Why gathering and hospitality are essential, and how we can be intentional about prioritizing this, even in the busyness of life. 

• Tips for ensuring our joy tank doesn’t run on empty.

• How we can gift joy during and beyond this holiday season. 

• How to intentionally maintain an attitude of gratitude.

• Navigating grief while in this holiday season that can be cheerful yet difficult at the same time for many dealing with hardships and loss.⁠

• One of the biggest gems that has helped Maaden in life and business.

• And much more…

Tune in as this season opener is packed with gems. Also, be sure to follow Maaden on Instagram @lovemaaden and join her free 21 day challenge here that kicks off on December 1st and focuses on doing good.
