The Sunday Scroll #145

a life changing laundry routine, soccer movies to watch, and my favorite jelly sandals

Jun 14, 2026

Hi friends! Happy Sunday! If you’re new here, The Sunday Scroll is a collection of articles, essays, and more that grabbed my attention during the week. Delivered straight to your inbox by 7am every Sunday morning perfect for scrolling with your coffee on the couch.

I made a quick trip to DC last week to accept the 2026 Client Courage award from the New Civil Liberties Alliance and well, receiving such a thing in such a place (Madison Hall at the Library of Congress) was just surreal. What is this life.

We just got my oldest back from Wake Forest Golf Camp and have one more week with Caroline before she’s off to Camp Greystone (for five weeks… hold me). I’m taking it easy with work this week to spend some fun time with her in the lake and at the pool! Hope your weekend is wonderful!

If you enjoyed my post on what women are outsourcing (and how every time we say yes to doing something ourselves, we are saying no to something else) you should check out this deep dive on mother’s helpers and house managers, specifically, including how much women are paying for help and where they’re sourcing it. I love to see these conversations playing out in public, it’s so powerful.
41 things a soon-to-be 41 year old mom has learned (and is still learning) in life.
A life changing laundry routine, you say? I’m all ears! Everything you never knew you needed to know about enzymes, water temperature, and rinsing.
“Because time is the strangest thing we live inside. We never actually see it move.” This is so cool…eight photos that put life and time in perspective.
Our toddler days feel like a distant memory, but if you’re in the thick of it this is really good advice on how to enjoy toddlerhood (not just survive it).

I’ve been having so much fun shopping for 4th of July outfits! I don’t know if it’s because of America’s 250th, but I feel like there’s a lot of cute red, white, and blue fashion this year. Hello, this hat is perfection and if you just want a subtle Americana detail this neckerchief is darling. I saved a bunch of stuff here! (And if you too are having complicated feelings about the fourth, love for a country — like love for a person — doesn’t require pretending it’s perfect. You can hold its brokenness in one hand and your hope for it in the other, and still mean it when you say you love America.)
A very fun roundup of soccer movies for kiddos excited about the World Cup!
And in that same vein, why watching sports makes people happy.

Forever a Nap Dress fan, but this $70 smocked dress is a really close second!
Never thought I would be so excited about celebrities using a Cricut machine, but everything about Taylor Swift and the Haim sisters wearing homemade t-shirts makes me happy.
My friend Beth Gebhard wrote this sweet piece about our time working together last year (first doing press for my cookbook, talking about pot roast… then doing press for my lawsuit, talking about tariffs and international trade… what a ride).

A few things we’ve been loving at the Lake:

I brought this little printer with us so I could print out photos of the kids from camp. I’m trying to be better about our pictures not just living in our phones!
Mosquito repellant bracelets, because, of course.
File this under things I’m loving because my family continues to think I’m insane, but this hat brings me so much joy.
My favorite sunglasses (which are currently 30% off!)
Handy zipper pouches for organizing crafts, boat things, pool things.
I’ve been living in these jelly sandals, they make my millennial heart so happy.

Coming next week:

I’m always on a mission to find ways to keep my business and life more organized (hello, I literally created a planner). When it comes to apps it feels like I’ve tried them all — and I have thoughts! I’m working on a massive post of all the apps that keep my business and life organized, how I utilize them, and what’s actually worth paying for. If you too find joy in organization, this post is for you!
