THE LIVING EDIT
The Living Edit is where we share the belief that both our spaces and our lives are never finished, only refined. Through this lens, design becomes more than aesthetic; it becomes a tool for clarity, confidence, and transformation. The Living Edit offers comprehensive guidance for architecting all areas of your life.

![What if one of the greatest life skills isn’t learning what to think... but learning to notice your thinking while it’s happening?
A Meta Mind isn’t about overthinking. It’s about creating just enough space between a thought and a reaction to choose a better response. It’s where self-awareness becomes self-growth.
Join me this week as we unpack one of the most powerful—and surprisingly rare—skills we can develop. It has the potential to change the way we make decisions, communicate, navigate challenges, and ultimately, design our lives.
Here’s to thinking a little differently. N. B. x

![How New Yorkers live day to day is entirely different from most Americans, and grocery shopping is no exception. We don’t jump in our cars and drive to a big-box grocery store. More often than not, whether it’s convenience, price, foodie status, or pure hype, we piece together our groceries from several different spots.
Join me for Nannette’s New York, my new series on food shopping in Manhattan. We’re hitting the neighborhood mainstays, the viral sensations, specialty food shops, and everything in between as we explore how New Yorkers do one of the most ordinary things in the world: grocery shop.

![One of the biggest friendship myths is that one friend is meant to be everything. The people who enrich our lives rarely fill the same role. Some, truth-tellers. Some, supporters. Others, our rocks.
The strongest friendships aren’t about finding the perfect friend. They’re about recognizing the different strengths each friend brings to your life.
Comment as to which role you think you play best as a friend. N B x

![You can be a terrible texter...
Hate small talk...
Avoid crowds...
Disappear for weeks...
And still be a great friend.
Take it from a crap friend who isn’t.
Friendship is like a rainbow. It has many arcs and comes in all sorts of colors. What makes you a quality, or a good friend, isn’t always what you think.
Share this post with a friend who needs to hear this. And remember- a crap friend can be a good friend, too.
