This week we’re sharing:
A therapist-recommended book to kick off your new year
A podcast episode featuring Gwen Whiting, Co-Founder of The Laundress, about why selling her beloved self-made cleaning brand to Unilever for $100 million was a huge mistake. Now that the terms of her non-disparagement has ended, she’s telling all about how Unilever mismanaged the brand and details about the chaos that happened post-acquisition.
An interview with ah.mi subscriber, Jenni, highlighting her incredible 2024 transformation story
Rach’s top wellness “musts” for 2025: an in-home sauna, digital calendar, creatine, books, eye cream — she did all of the research for you!
All the details so you can join us for Super Clean January challenge! We *officially* start together on Monday, January 6.
Let’s get into it…
🍵 READ & LISTEN:
I got the text below this week from a highly trusted source regarding Mel Robbins’ new book: “The Let Them Theory.” Another ah.mi member also shared that it was recommended by her therapist!
Here is the podcast episode with the Laundress Co-Founder that gets into the details of what went wrong with Unilever’s $100m acquisition of the cleaning brand.
3. ah.mi Interview Series:
We’re excited to bring back an old favorite series of content: ah.mi interviews. Read ah.mi subscriber, Jenni’s, 2024 transformation story here.
“My mindset shifted from thinking, ‘Well, this is just the post-kids me,’ to, ‘Holy shit, I can actually do this!’ Once I started seeing results and realized that change was actually possible, I just kept going.”
Jenni’s before and after pics are so inspiring — thank you for being willing to share, Jenni!
🍵 Product Recs:
Rach’s top wellness “musts” for 2025! There have been a lot of questions about the two person in-home infrared sauna Rach got for her birthday - it’s currently on super sale (over $1,000 off!). It’s low EMF and comes with a built-in bluetooth speaker which is 👌.
