WELLNESS: TAKING CREATINE FOR 2 MONTHS
After taking creatine for two months, a personal trainer and health writer noticed benefits—not just in the gym, but mentally, too. While creatine is often seen as a supplement for muscle gains, she found it also helped with workout recovery, sprint performance, joint pain, and even perimenopause-related brain fog and focus issues. For women—especially those navigating hormonal changes or doing high-intensity workouts—it might just be a simple, affordable way to support both body and mind.

BUSINESS: NETFLIX x SPOTIFY
Netflix has been in talks with Spotify about partnering on live events like music award shows and concerts. This convo comes as part of Netflix’s broader push into live programming. They’re also trying to expand into music competitions, celebrity interviews, and live sports to boost ad revenue, diversify content, and grow the subscriber base.

CAREER: NO-HIRE/NO-FIRE JOB MARKET
The current job market is oddly stable: people aren’t getting laid off, but they’re also not being hired. It’s great news if you already have a job—but not so great if you’re job hunting, especially for recent grads facing unusually high unemployment. While layoffs are near historic lows, hiring has slowed significantly, leaving many job seekers stuck waiting—and hoping—employers start hiring again soon.

There’s a good chance that at some point you’ve been asked to name 5 people with whom we’d like to have dinner. Why do we choose the people we do, and what if that dinner was to actually happen? These are the questions Rebecca Serle contends with in this captivating novel, The Dinner List. When Sabrina arrives at her 30th birthday dinner, she finds not just her best friend, but also three significant people from her past, and…Audrey Hepburn, at the dinner table. As the appetizers are served, wine poured, and dinner table conversation begins, it becomes clear that there’s a reason these six people have been gathered together.

ON SELF SUFFICIENCY: The greatest thing in the world is to know how to belong to oneself. — Michel de Montaigne

The importance of self-reliance and independence is truly a pathway to personal fulfillment as true freedom and happiness come from within, from knowing yourself and being comfortable in your own skin.
