A LOVE LETTER TO JULY ♥️
FOUNDER NOTES:
There’s something about July that always stirs something deep in me. It feels like the sun is speaking directly to your skin, like joy can live at the surface and still be sacred. Five years ago this month, I shared Palace One Eleven with the world for the very first time. I didn’t know what would come from it….I just knew it was time. And every year since, July has felt like a return to that knowing. A homecoming to creativity, to possibility, to play.
This month carries a charge. A rhythm. A kind of beauty that can only come from being fully present in your body, your light, your truth. It makes me want to move slower and dream bigger at the same time. July reminds me that blooming doesn’t have to be hard or loud…it can be sweet, soft, and fully yours.
I’ve been holding so much close to my chest, and still, I trust what’s unfolding. There’s more to share, but for now, I just want to honor this moment. I want to celebrate the journey and everything that’s grown from the love, the lessons, and the light we’ve all poured in.

July Overall
July feels like heat on your shoulders and laughter in the background. It’s golden hours that stretch and spill into your spirit. This month is movement, rhythm, and color. The kind that lives in block parties, open hydrants, barefoot moments, and the kind of joy you don’t need to earn. July invites you to remember what it felt like to be lit up from the inside. It’s where play and purpose meet. Where creativity flows freely, and your inner child finally takes the lead.
There’s power in this kind of freedom. In letting joy be loud, and your energy be sacred. This month wants you to bloom in real time, to take up space with softness and certainty. Let the sun show you what’s possible when you stop holding back. Let it remind you that your glow isn’t just a phase..it’s your natural state.

MIND & BODY
This season asks for celebration and care. With the sun at its peak, your body is working harder to regulate and restore, so let your rituals meet the moment. Hydration becomes essential..inside and out. Lean into foods that cool, movement that flows, and skincare that protects and illuminates.
Your emotions may feel heightened this month, stirred by the warmth and memory the season brings. Carve out moments to ground. Long showers, slow mornings, midday check-ins with your breath. Let your nervous system know it’s safe to expand. July’s energy can be magnetic when you’re well-nourished. Give yourself permission to glow, to rest, and to feel joy in your body…without apology.
