Hello! This week, we've been busy soaking up the first whispers of Fall. It's one of my favorite seasons, and I love the chance to break out my sweaters and sip on my coffee outside. If you are looking for a Fall recipe, check out this butternut squash soup. It's one of my Fall favorites.

Now, take a moment to grab a cup of coffee or tea and sit for a minute as we go through our weekly round-up of all the things happening at A More Beautiful Life Collective.

Some Beautiful Things

• What I'm reading: I just finished Reset Your Child's Brain which was the basis of the podcast for this week. In the podcast, I give a great overview of what the author, Victoria Dunckley, says about screens. If you are interested, I really encourage you to read it! Now, I'm reading I'm Glad My Mom Died by Jeanette Harris. Jeanette Harris, who starred in iCarly and its later spin-off, was one of the child actors that I loved growing up. Little did I know, she experienced abuse and trauma during her time in Hollywood. I've heard really good things about this book. Have you read it? You can message me on Instagram, and let me know what you think!
• What I'm listening to: This Daily Grace Co. Podcast on Women and the Home with Jean Pollock Michel. In the episode, they give a really measured and thoughtful response to how we should perceive our role as homemakers. It's definitely worth a listen!
• What I'm loving: My Crockpot! Fall is the perfect time to do all the crockpot recipes. You can find a great collection of Crockpot recipes from the Passionate Penny Pincher here. I use these recipes weekly!
• Check out The Purpose Planner on Etsy! I've been working on creating a planner for home, work, school, and life. Let me know what you think! You can get 50% off with the code: HABITS.
