Hi, sweet friends! This Sunday Sweet Edit, I hope you’re enjoying your holiday weekend. We have a few plans but are keeping it pretty casual. I’m trying to unplug as much as possible and enjoy this time with my family under the sun.

We’ll talk all about whether it’s time to end The OC, the fan gift of Ultimate Girl’s Trip, why Real Housewives of Salt Lake is Bravo at it’s best, and how this season of Real Housewives of New York is so worth a watch after the past couple of lackluster seasons. Plus – Suzanne relives one of her favorite housewives series, Atlanta, as Courtney watches through the entire show for the first time. Community is truly the secret sauce of sobriety success, so I’ve created a special place for you during Sober October!

one more thing…

The quote, "Loving yourself is a practice, just like yoga. Nobody ever got good at yoga by believing in it. You have to do it. Even when it's hard. Especially when it's hard." -@emandfriends

I love the idea of loving myself as an act. As not something to feel, but something to DO.

How do I treat those I love? What do I DO for those I love? Do I do the same for myself?
