Everything But The Kitchen Sink: July recap & upcoming projects & a new template & Gaza support
Published 3 months agoΒ β’Β 8 min read
hi hi Reader,
Gahhh it's August already, how does that happen?! ::Shrug:: Time keeps on just flying by!
My July was great. And looking back, really busy!
Healed up from my broken hand, almost completely back to normal now π
Went to Mexico City for a week for a friend's bday!
Ended up running 67 miles, which is the most BY FAR I've ever run in a month
Got in a couple of Oregon hikes with lovely views of Mt Hood
My older brother visited from Seoul (South Korea) for a week and we got to go running and eat burritos and play Hitster and it was a great visit
Pics at the bottom for those curious π
And I've been busy with work stuff too.
I completed a Design Day for a lovely client last week and honestly, I just love Design Days.
We refreshed her whole brand and website in just one day. I shared the before/after on Threads, check it out here if you're interested. And this week, she's hired me for brand image sourcing, which is another one of my favorite things to do. (Seriously, if you need help with this, I LOVE it. Hit reply and we can chat.)
In addition to that project, I've been working on creating a BIG multiple website design proposal for a restaurant group in Seattle (they found me through my new-ish SEO-optimized Seattle Squarespace Web Design landing page I created back in April - the second opportunity I've had from that page!). Just submitted it yesterday, I'll hear back by August 25 π€
I FINALLY put the finishing touches on my new Squarespace Template for wellness professionals (check it out here.)
As always, since you're a subscriber you get a special launch discount - take 40% with code SUBSCRIBER. Good through the month of August.
While I was finalizing that template, I was trying to think of some cool things to go with it that'd help people with their marketing too, so I ALSO created a social media and marketing kit bundle from scratch. (this is totally different than what I emailed you about last week, haha I've been busy.)
This is for people who want to be current on the socials as of August 2025 - no outdated square templates, no editorial pics that give basic Canva 2021 vibes. You probably know what I mean?
Instead, what's included in this Social Media & Marketing Kit:
Instagram Posts: services, quotes, blog posts, events & carousel templates
Lead Magnets: mockups AND cover page templates
Pinterest Pins: for blog posts or shareable tips
Social Share Image: something I haven't ever seen included anywhere else? A social share mockup for your own Squarespace website!
π₯ With Canva templates, it can be hard to know what's included and what things actually look like since there's no easy way to demo it, so I made a little walk-through Loom video for ya (2 minutes).
Oh, PLUS I'm including my complete brand and business AI Prompt kit at no extra charge with this Squarespace wellness template. Sold separately for $98 (link here if you want 'em), you'll get access to my brand voice prompt, business foundations, and copy prompts for a complete website.
NBD.
β
Who this template is for:
Acupuncturists, massage therapists, naturopathic doctors, functional medicine practitioners, integrative medicine practices, holistic health coaches, nutritionists, yoga instructors, wellness consultants, bodyworkers, and service-based wellness professionals. Check out the demo here.β
β
Anyway, I didn't actually mean to turn this into a whole sales email for this template, because I still have more stuff to share not template related, but if you're interested, check it out here, and don't forget to use code SUBSCRIBER for 40% this template only for the month of August!
Here are some pics for visual interest before I TOTALLY stop sharing though π:
gosh she's so pretty, I love this template π₯°
β
I love the color palette of this template! What do you think?
Oh, and I almost forgot, I did a quick mockup to show you how versatile this template is! Switched out images, colors and fonts and did a quick copy update, and Viola! a brand new look! (Also, I kind of wish this business was real, it actually sounds so cool π)
This organization, The Bayader Youth Team, is run by Mohammed, a lawyer in Gaza, and cousin of my longtime friend's husband.
I've known this family for years and can personally vouch for their good hearts and integrity.
Just last week, your donations helped them deliver a full truckload of clean drinking water to families -- and they just shared photos and stories on Instagram showing the relief on people's faces!!!! You can follow them on Instagram to learn more!
β
Well, and I guess that's enough sharing for this week actually.
Hope you found this email fun & helpful & interesting & not toooo all over the place! And happy August!
β
Yours in how-is-it-august-already???,
Janessa
