Collectively, our team has a community focused passion, impressive accolades, we're mental health and self-care advocates with a knack for jotting down positivity to help you discover a little joy. Each month we issue a new blog topic that is either close to the author's heart, commonly asked questions, or social (distancing) trends. So, with that said - you don't have to hold your breath anymore - We are honored to formally (and finally!) welcome you to the Green Shoe Blog.
Giving back positively
By Rebecca Holt July 2020 Giving back might be a way that we honor others. We may find a cause to be a part of that has helped us in some way in our life. It can connect us to times in our life that we have needed help and compassion from others. |
Growing in Place

Word of the Year
