Today we’d like to introduce you to Summer Echo.

Hi Summer, so excited to have you with us today. What can you tell us about your story?

I’ve always been an entrepreneur at heart. When I was a kid, I was constantly starting little businesses — selling crafts, baked goods, and anything I could dream up. At one point, my mom joked that the neighbors were going to start locking their doors when they saw me coming because…

🌻Honoring the First Harvest with Intention, Craft, and Community

As the golden haze of late summer settles over the fields, we arrive at Lammas—the sacred cross-quarter festival nestled between the Summer Solstice and the Autumn Equinox. Named from the Old English hlaf-mas, meaning “loaf mass,” Lammas marks the first grain harvest, a time when communities once gathered to bless the bread made from the first sheaf and offer gratitude to the land that nourished them.

As the earth begins its slow emergence from winter’s grasp, Imbolc arrives with its promise of renewal, tenderness, and quiet transformation. This sacred time invites us to honor our own gentle awakening—to nurture the parts of ourselves that are still fragile, still forming, still learning to trust the light.

It’s early morning, and the world outside is still wrapped in the quiet chill of night. The trees stand bare, the ground frozen, and yet—something is stirring beneath the surface.

If you aren’t attuned to the natural cycles of life, it may still feel like winter—cold, stagnant, unchanging. But if you pause, if you listen, you will feel it: the shift. A quiet whisper of possibility, the first flicker of movement in what once felt frozen.

If there’s one thing you need to start doing right now to completely revolutionize your romantic relationships, it’s this:

Are you ready? Because while it’s simple in theory, it takes a ton of courage to actually implement.

Picture this: You’re standing on a tightrope, suspended high above the ground. The wind sways you ever so slightly. Below, the vast emptiness stretches out, waiting. You take a deep breath, arms outstretched, one foot slowly moving forward.

Did you feel it? A rush of adrenaline? Butterflies in your stomach? Maybe your palms even got a little sweaty.

I know what it’s like to feel completely lost—to wake up every day with a nagging sense that something is missing, but no idea how to fix it.

Not too long ago, I felt completely frozen. Life was happening around me, but I had lost my footing. Every option felt so overwhelming that I started to not want anything at all. I was drowning in a crippling sense of discontent.

It’s dark outside. The ground is patchy with an old snow that has only partially thawed.

On my kitchen counter sits a large plate, painted with a stag against a wintery backdrop. In the center of the plate stands a tall candle, covered in herbs and dried flowers. As the flame dances, bits of herb crackle softly, releasing their fragrant essence. Dried oranges, crystals, and—today—a sprinkle of lavender encircle the candle.
