July News from FYIE

My Dear Empress Community,

Can you believe we're nearly halfway through July already?! Summer sure has a way of convincing us that life should slow down, yet somehow the days seem to move even faster. Between vacations, backyard gatherings, community festivals, did I mention yard work? and the endless list of things we tell ourselves we'll "get to next week," it's easy for the season to slip quietly through our fingers.

If I'm being completely transparent, this newsletter is arriving much later than I had planned. Life and business have been wonderfully full, and I've spent the past several weeks welcoming new collections, preparing exciting collaborations, attending networking events thanks to some wonderful friends and meeting so many new faces, and dreaming about everything still to come for FYIE.

But perhaps that's a gentle reminder for all of us. Not every beautiful thing happens exactly on schedule. Sometimes the garden blooms a little later. Sometimes the best conversations happen after the plans have changed. Sometimes the chapter you're meant to begin simply waits until you're ready to turn the page.

There is so much to share this month. From exciting new arrivals and the launch of Embrago at FYIE to upcoming events, boutique happenings, and a few surprises we've been quietly working on behind the scenes, June and July have been filled with meaningful moments that I can't wait to share with you.

As always, thank you for allowing FYIE to be a small part of your journey. Whether you are a first time or longtime coaching client, a style session client, you've visited the boutique, cheered us on from afar, or simply opened this newsletter today, your support means more than you know.

Now...settle in, take a slow breath, and let me catch you up on everything happening at Find Your Inner Empress beginning with...

Upcoming Events & Happenings

Introducing: Embrago at FYIE

I couldn't be more excited to officially welcome this innovative, Pennsylvania-made brand to our Empress Community. At FYIE, I'm always searching for brands that inspire confidence and make everyday life just a little easier for women living real everyday lives.

Embrago has truly succeeded in solving genuine problems our fuller busted Empresses have faced for generations with its signature, patented bra-free designs, all created with comfort, confidence, and versatility in mind.

If you've ever felt like high fashion wasn't made for you because you were a little fuller in the chest, the truth is, you're right! And that is why you are going to love Embrago! Join us for an evening of champagne, conversation, a little styling inspiration, and the opportunity to meet Embrago founder, Karen Poirier. Stay tuned for additional details in the coming weeks and watch as we plan a full fashion show lineup for the fall that you absolutely do not want to miss!!

Does the Recent Heat Wave Have You in a Slump? Why not take a break from the ordinary and join us for a special:

"Christmas in July" Event

Date & Time: Friday, July 24th from 3-7pm Location: The Armstrong Great Lawn, Rochester Road, Cranberry Twp

Hosted by the Pittsburgh Regional North Chamber and the Cranberry Town Square Market. In addition to their regular Farmers Market, the splash pad will be splashing, there will be a petting zoo, vendors, live music from 5-7, food trucks and lots of festive fun.

A wonderfully delightful break from the heat of summer. Well, at least in theory. It seems summer's heat is here to stay this year.

Mark your calendars for our first ever end-of-season, sidewalk stretch clearance event! This is a great time to stock up on those items you've been "keeping your eye on".

News Around Town

The Great Pittsburgh Book Crawl will be coming to Mars thanks to our very own Novel Breads located just off Pittsburgh St in Mars!

If you love books as much as I do, be sure to check out this tour and follow along. You can pick up your passport book for the crawl at Novel Breads during their regular business hours and be sure to show them some love! And remember that FYIE stocks some great book related accessories like classic book wristlets and children's books for the kids.

The book crawl begins Saturday, July 18th and runs through the 26th.

If you will be attending any of FYIE's other events, these can often occur at the same time as events happening at other Mars businesses such as Nosh & Curd's Summer Sip n' Shop on July 30th.

Consider making a day or evening of it and visiting our neighbor businesses. Small towns survive because of small businesses, and small businesses survive because of amazing people like you!

The summer sun still warms the day, though somehow July slips away. Its golden hours, both bright and sweet, leaves treasured memories at our feet.

The road ahead we cannot see, yet holds the promise it should be. For every ending, something starts, with open hands and hopeful hearts.

So may you find both joy and peace, in little moments, a sweet release. And may your confidence shine through, in all you are and all you do.

Until we meet again once more, keep dreaming, growing, and seeking more. For every Empress, brave and true, has something only she can do.
