Beauty Refreshers features those who inspire and give me and others hope.
Lucy Farmer amazes me as one of the most fearless of artists, free to try many forms from HGTV home flips to her own line of jewlery (Lucy's Inspired). She's an entrepreneur, a curator of beauty, a resource to artists, and a role model of living a beautiful, adventurous life. We're privileged to have her as chairman of the board of InSpero.
She is a "savorer" of life and beauty. I asked what her secret was to continually being inspired.
"Life can be fast-paced, full of responsibilities and tasks that keep us moving from one moment to the next. But in the rush, we often overlook the simple beauty that surrounds us every day. Whether it's the golden light filtering through your window in the morning, the quiet rhythm of your breath, or the smile of a stranger, there is beauty in the smallest details.
Slowing down just enough to notice these moments can transform your day. It doesn’t have to be grand or elaborate; it can be as simple as savoring your morning coffee, feeling the cool breeze on your skin, or appreciating the colors in a blooming flower. These small pauses invite us to reconnect with ourselves and the world around us.
When we make time to see and appreciate the beauty in our everyday lives, we find joy and presence even in the midst of chaos. The world offers these moments of wonder all the time—we just have to remember to look for them."
A little about Lucy from her website:
"Discover beauty in life through art, travel, and design. From hand-made journals to hats to jewelry, I am an avid crafter and maker. I’m excited to share my journey of being an artist and making my own path. You’ll enjoy learning how to tap into new creative activities, as well as make them a part of your life and home."
