Happy Thanksgiving & Gratitude

Hi friend, how have you been? I wanted first to wish you and your loved ones a peaceful and joyous Thanksgiving! 🧡

Today marks a special milestone: The Waves We Ride is officially available as an ebook on all major digital platforms! 🎉 I’m beyond excited to share this moment with you, and I can’t wait for the printed edition to follow this December.

I’m especially grateful for your support—subscribing to an independent author’s newsletter is a wonderful way to encourage and uplift my journey as an indie writer. Thank you for being part of this adventure!

As we start this holiday season and spend time with our loved ones, let’s make an extra effort to express gratitude for their presence in our lives. Just yesterday, my sister and I had a heartfelt moment where we shared our appreciation for one another (You'll learn more about our special bond in the book). If you have a sibling or someone close to you, this is a wonderful way to put gratitude into practice.

The truth is, no one is entitled to our emotional presence—or theirs. We earn this connection by giving our own emotional presence in return. Gratitude, expressed sincerely, strengthens those bonds and reminds us of the value of the people who walk alongside us in life.

This Thanksgiving, I’m reflecting on how gratitude helps us navigate life’s rough waves, keeping our journeys in perspective and giving us the strength to move forward with intention. I hope this holiday season inspires you to do the same, not just today but every day.

With love and gratitude,
Ladyane
